I'm still using the old intel driver but that's for a good reason. When
I first tried the new xorg server, I built that experimental intel
driver that goes with it, and it didn't work with my on-board i915
chip. I just got a black screen. So I reverted to the old one. I have a
second-hand computer, so I suppose that counts as legacy hardware.
