Looks like the hardware is too new for the driver version.  I see there 
are now a libdrm-2.4.26 and xf86-video-intel 2.16.0 release on the Intel 
site ( http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2011Q3.html ) but they are listed 
for kernel-3.0 so we will have to see if they build/work with the 
current kernel.
