Sorry, I'm not going to apply this.

This way of installing is meant only for nouveau, and building
i915 is for most people useless.

If you want both nouveau and i915, I would recommend building
the whole kernel with both of these from either Nouveau linux tree,
or Linus' tree. Or some other upstream tree.


Thanks.
