modesetting isn't working on this device. There is a slow refresh problem.

Setting its AccelMethod (glamor as per the man page) doesn't work either.
It just opens a blank screen with glamor.

wsfb doesn't open either.

Only intel is opening and working largely, except that hdmi output has a
slow refresh except when it is just mirroring eDP1.

On Linux the device uses intel driver with SNA acceleration, just that the
log messages indicate a different version (shared in last post on this
thread.)

This [1] thread, revived recently [2], has a lot of discussion on the
topic.

No solution in sight as yet.
