Bug Description
cedarview-drm works perfectly on Ubuntu 12.04.2 32-bit on a Foxconn nT-1200 NanoPC (with Intel GMA 3600 video card.) There are some minor errors on install, but the video card is recognized, Unity works very well and videos play very well.
But I would like to upgrade to Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit, but it appears that cedarview-drm isn't supported to that platform.
Is it possible to simply add this package to the raring-ringtail repositories? If so, it may work "out of the box" with Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit and allow us to use the latest Ubuntu version with GMA 3600 video cards.

Probably not. The cedarview module is closed-source and intel would have to update it for newer Xservers/kernels: https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ cedarview- drm-drivers/ +bug/1132584/ comments/ 4
