Well they list xf86-video-intel 2.21.3, so I would look in the Xorg.0.log
for that to see if it loaded it.

On Debian unstable, the current version of the intel driver is:

ii  xserver-xorg-video-intel                                    2:2.19.0-6                        amd64        X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver

So 2.19.0 isn't that far from 2.21.3, so that does seem like a plausible
version.  Of course I also have xserver verwion 1.12.4, while intel has
1.13.2.902 on their page, so the driver there might now even be compatible
with 1.12, or whatever your system happens to have, unless you replaced
everything (which would probably break a ton of other things).
