Should newer Intel chips default to using modesetting driver?

[Chrysostomus]

According to arch wiki and manjaro forum discussions, newer intel chips have less screen tearing and other problems. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/intel_graphics Could mhwd check for the intel chip model and take this to account by

• not installing xf86-video-intel and writing any intel related xorg config
• installing microcode
• adding i915 to modules in mkinitcpio.conf?

For skylake, add extra configuration file https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/intel_graphics#Skylake_support
