I totally agree with this!
My intel video driver _was_ worked with my hardware /00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)/ with XAA. I can use compiz, xvideo, etc, anything, what I want. Now, I can see a crappy, but "graphical" boot screen /with kms, but I can do the same thing with intelfb, from many years ago/, but, if I want to use X, I must use fbdev drv in xorg.conf /with newest kernel (2.6.35-rcX-gitY), I can use intel-drv, but no luck with compiz for example/.

So a legacy driver would be nice :)
