Mesa 8.0 Intel i945G Gallium3D

Benchmarking the VMware Intel i915 Gallium3D driver under Mesa 8.0 branched Git on an Intel i945G integrated graphics processor. Performance being compared the Mesa 8.0 i915 DRI classic driver from same Mesa Git revision. Using the same Linux 3.2 kernel, xf86-video-intel X.Org DDX, and other components aside from changing out the Mesa/Gallium3D Intel driver. Testing for a future article by Michael Larabel on Phoronix.com. Prost!
