Upgrading to the latest driver for mythbuntu 12.04

Unfortunatelly we have no easy way for getting it upgraded for 12.04.

We do have a easy Installer for non-technical users, but currently only targetting 2013Q2 for Fedora 19 and Ubuntu 13.04: https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2013/intelr-linux-graphics-installer-version-1.0.2

The easy installer for 12.04 was deprecated after we started to cause conflicts with official packages from Canonical.

Please notice that we don't recommend to change your distribution kernel that contains latest from your distribution including Security patches, but if you are a brave user willing to get sources and replacing even your kernel: The only way for you would be manually compiling the whole stack from source folowing development procedures available at  https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/build-guide and get sources of latest availabe stack: https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2013/2013q2-intel-graphics-stack-release

Thanks,

Rodrigo.

Just wondering if I just upgrade the Intel driver (2D) only, I just need to compile the followings?

It didn't say much on the build guide....

I did compile all the above packages, but when I reboot I got the following errors from Xorg.0.log

X.Org X Server 1.13.3   (old release)

Actually, the system is still using the old xorg, and it didn't use the newly compiled xorg under /usr/local/bin/

What options should I use when I compile the XServer  for Ubuntu 12.04?

Thanks,
