- Resolved(?) fucked framerate in T470 (i5-6300U, Intel HD 520) by replacing mesa 26.1.1-2 with mesa-amber. Currently the 2 mentioned games run relatively smoothly, under OpenGL 3.0 backend.

- Initial commit

Nvidia-less Thinkpad T470 (i5-6300U, Intel wi-fi card, Intel HD 520 GPU)
- intel-media-driver
- libva-intel-driver (not sure but kept around)
- mesa-amber (for i965 driver; iris driver reported as troublesome)
- xlibre-video-intel (or xf86-video-intel if xorg instead of xlibre)

+ Known issues :
	- Mesa 26.1.1-2 set at compatibility mode, slow framerate while gaming (luanti, shattered pixel dungeon)
	Currently resolved by replacing mesa with mesa-amber.

More to be added if I get the money, time, & will to spend on another computer. Or if I get the permission to fuck around with the others' computers.
