I have written a post about Intel's simple tool to download and install the latest Intel Linux Graphic driver. In that post, the installer was available for Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal, not for the latest Ubuntu version 13.04 Raring Ringtail. So, today I'd like to write a step by step tutorial on how to install the Intel Linux Graphic Installer on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail.
