Intel-drv? Don't have such a package... I should have problems? :S

I'm happily running Archlinux

I do have performance problems, specially on Kwin (kde window manager) but not 
only on it.

Locks or crashes? Well, fullscreen opengl apps don't seem to work on my 
external monitor as the screen  turns black after a few seconds(although it 
don't really crashes as I can go to VT and back to get the screen back, weird 
:S)

By the way, I had to go  back to  Xorg 1.7 instead of 1.8 because I had plenty 
of freezes on my laptop :(

Now everything seems ok.
