@Aztek:
1. "gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe" is correct. Since this GPU lacks 3D hardware accel, it uses llvmpipe.
2. Playing video with the Flash plugin (youtube) takes a lot of CPU power no matter which GPU you're using. As you've discovered, it's best to use a native Linux video player to work around the issue.
3. GMA 500/600 and 3600/3650 are terrible GPU's for Linux. You should have done more research before making your purchase. Simply buying something because of the brand/logo in it is a bad idea, whether it's a computer or a car.
