Hardware graphics acceleration on Intel processors

A couple years ago, I bought a laptop with an i7 Sandy Bridge CPU because they come with a graphics processor on-chip. I believe it's open source, but I could be wrong.

Has anyone had any luck writing graphics drivers for Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge CPU's? Is it possible to compile shaders for them?

Thanks!

Josh
