Bryce,

Can I make a request re: 05_intel_exa_force_greedy.patch? Currently this
patch forces the "greedy" heuristic which is currently the best option
for many Intel cards (mine included). However, it effectively disables
EXA acceleration for most cases, as far as I understand.

Wouldn't it be better to revise the patch so that the Intel driver's
MigratonHeuristic *defaults* to "greedy" rather than forcesit? That way,
if I want to test the "smart" or "always" heuristics to see if
improvements are made in future versions of Xorg, I can specify them in
my xorg.conf. That won't break user's setups and will make this patch
more future-proof.
