I don't see that this chipset is not widely used anymore. In the contrary: Up to now I found 5 bug reports on ubuntu only that seem to report this issue. Some of this bug reports have existed for years:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/272560

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/306849

I'm sure though that there are lots of people who have the same problem and never look up the bug reports but simply stay with windows because linux "doesn't work" for them.

The last comments showed at least some progress in the area of discovering how this chip works, so I don't understand why this bug is closed as wontfix.
