This is planned obsolescence at its best. Intel-controlled software dropping
support for older (Intel) hardware to force you to buy new one to replace
it.
We have come to expect that from proprietary software, including the
proprietary NVidia driver, but for Free Software, this is a new low.
Introducing a compatibility package is the least we can do. Ideally, the
project should be forked upstream to restore support for older hardware.
