Xorg problem on Skylake

[Matthew Dillon]

On skylake, not yet... all you can do is turn off acceleration in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you are running X without an /etc/X11/xorg.conf you
have to mess around and set one up, then turn off acceleration in it).
SkyLake support only just recently started to go in and it is guaranteed to
be unstable.  We haven't synchronized the code to the point where it is
supported well yet.
