2011-07-23 19:23:47 H3g3m0n description I'm using the Ubuntu 11.10 Daily LiveCD from 21 Jul 2011. I'm on a Asus EeePC T91MT. The Intel GMA500 has always been problematic with Intel basically refusing to support it, however in the past it did at least start on older Ubuntu versions (although in an incorrect resolution and normally required quite a bit of screwing around with drivers to get something decent running). The new 3.0 kernel (and 2.6.39) now has some built in psb-gfx drivers for the chipset, they don't support hardware acceleration but should give ok normal 2D graphics. On boot, I get stuck at a terminal. The terminal flashes black continuously until I 'sudo stop lightdm' (LightDM seems to fail to detect that it's broken and just keeps trying to start, but that's probably a different bug). I notice in the Xorg.log there is a "vesa: Ignoring device with a bound kernel driver". There is a kernel module 'poulsbo' loaded. If it 'rmmod poulsbo' and then 'sudo start lightdm' then xorg starts correctly. My best guess is xorg isn't correctly configured to use the new psb-gfx drivers.
