Yes it's integrated intel on skylake.

I also included these

---
Option          "ReprobeOutputs" "TRUE"
Option          "TripleBuffer" "FALSE"
Option          "SwapbuffersWait" "FALSE"
---

from Matt Dillon's notes on 4k monitors, but don't know if they are

Enlightenment 0.20 is said to have wayland/weston support. I wonder if
one can build it on DragonFly and if it might have a terminal
emulator.
