Removed mention of eglplasma and changed it to egltriangle. I think eglplasma has separate bugs that prevent it from working on i915.
** Description changed: There is a bugfix in 10.3.1 that will fix dma-buf handling in i915. So we would like to see the newest minor release of mesa, which is 10.3.1 This will fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1275398 and basically enable i915 devices to run mir.
