However (but ma= ybe I've understood wrong), it says that I have to define that variable= only if I want to use the old xf86-video-i810 name. If I don't define = that, I should use the new name (xf86-video-intel).
Do I get any improvement using the old one (and, is that a good idea?) ?

Your xorg.conf is fine. Take a look at make.conf. Somewhere you shoul= d
define a variable VIDEO_CARDS than contains the string "intel". I= f
not, add it and remerge mesa. Take a look at the HOWTO Adam suggested,
