Thanks.   Best I can tell from the Intel Tech Center site at:

https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads/2013/2013q1-intel-graphics-stack-release

the GPU fix I'm after is in a section called kernel (kernel module?)  Any idea 
how I would see if that version is running?

Thanks again in advance for your help.
