+Release 2.8.0 (2009-08-25)
+============================
+We are pleased to announce this 2.8.1 maintenance release of the
+xf86-video-intel driver. This snapshot contains a few, hand-picked
+fixes since the 2.8.0 release. Several of the bugs fixed can manifest
+themselves as "random" crashing or hanging of the GPU, (so effectively
+the interactive session). We recommend that all users/distributors of
+2.8.0 upgrade to 2.8.1.

 * Allow DRM mode setting to include transformations (also requires a
   fix in the X server---available in xserver 1.6.3)
 
 * Align tiled pixmap height so we don't address beyond the end of our
   buffers.
 
+* Align the height of untiled pixmaps to 2 lines as well.
+
+* Replace existing EDID property blob with new one
+
+* Only align DRI2 tiled pixmaps to the DRI2 tiled pixmap alignment
+  requirement (fixes bug #21387).
+
+* Calculate the DVO relative offset in LVDS data entry to get the DVO
+  timing (fixes bug #22787 and Debian bug #538148).
+
