Intel Sandy Bridge SNA Jan 2012 Mobile Intel Core i5-2520M testing with a HP 161C and Intel Sandybridge Mobile (GT2+) on Ubuntu 12.04 via the Phoronix Test Suite. A testing of Ubuntu 12.04 Precise daily on 30 January 2012, then upgrading to current Git master of Linux 3.3, Mesa 8.0-devel master, and xf86-video-intel. Then again when doing the same Intel Git components layered atop Ubuntu 12.04 but then with SNA enabled. Testing for a future article on Phoronix.com by Michael Larabel.
