On 10 Jul 2006; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org> stabilized a pile of x11-drivers/* on ia64. The evidence seems to say that he compile tested a bunch of things and marked them stable, regardless of possibility of hardware being available on that platform. For instance, xf86-video-siliconmotion: 10 Jul 2006; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org> xf86-video-siliconmotion-1.4.1.ebuild: Mark 1.4.1 stable on ia64 01 Jul 2006; Donnie Berkholz <dberkholz@gentoo.org>; xf86-video-siliconmotion-1.4.1.ebuild: stable on alpha sh siliconmotion isn't available on alpha, ia64, or sh... Aron also marked xf86-video-intel stable on ia64, but no one knows of any ia64 hardware with integrated intel graphics. Other evidence points to no intel graphics on ia64 -- libdrm's configure.ac contains case $host_cpu in i?86|x86_64) INTEL=yes ;; *) INTEL=no ;; esac Let's fix a 6.5 year old mistake and drop ia64 keywords on xf86-video-intel. We should probably drop keywords on other drivers that no one has actually tested on weird arches as well.
done.
