X.Org hardware video drivers

This cluster comprises X server video drivers targeting specific graphics hardware, including VIA, Intel, NVIDIA, 3dfx, ATI, VMware, S3, and others. The dated history shows an initial concentration of 8 entries in January 2017, followed by sparse single entries through 2026, with a small group of 3 in June 2025. Traction leaders, all with 0 stars, are xlibre-video-nouveau, xlibre-video-intel, and xlibre-video-nested.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 16 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
