The driver readme and man are out-of-date. Zhenyu/Carl, can you update it?

The documentation on intellinuxgraphics.org has been updated.

With Intel GPU moving from chipset into CPU, we are not using chipset name (like Q57) in driver. Instead, we use CPU name like Clarkdale (used together with Q57), or Ironlake. The documentation likes to use the formal product name like Core i5 or "HD". Mmm, I admit it becomes more complex than before.

As I suggested, you'd go for http://intellinuxgraphics.org/2010Q3.html (or at least Q1).
