Poulsbo (GMA500) Support in Intrepid (8.10) and Jaunty (9.04)
The drivers for the Poulsbo chipset are shipped in the ubuntu-mobile PPA.
Add the ubuntu-mobile PPA
Edit a file called /etc/apt/sources.list/psb.list, and add the following line to it: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu YOUR RELEASE HERE main
You may also wish to add the key to the keyring by following the instructions here.
Which kernel are you running?
If you are using a kernel that you have compiled yourself, or are not using the latest kernel provided by either Intrepid or Jaunty, install the psb-kernel-source package (and make sure the headers for your kernel are available!) and then remove psb-modules.
Install packages
Install poulsbo-driver-2d if you only require 2D, and poulsbo-driver-3d if you also require 3D acceleration to work. Make sure your user is a member of the video group before using 3D.
Common problems
X doesn't start
Double check that the psb kernel module can be loaded into the running kernel by running modprobe psb.
