Bug Description

Please enable glamor support, similar to what done with radeon (commit: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-video-ati.git;a=commitdiff;h=fa9cf560c5bebca539103ce453825bd1475d5710 , see also bug 1224718 ).

Note that the default is still SNA, glamor would just be an optional alternative (must be enabled by the user in xorg.conf) in case he has problems with SNA or just want to try it.

Glamor 0.6 improved a lot and is already in Ubuntu. Intel is also merging glamor in xorg 1.16 to let it available as a new acceleration back end.
