Bug Description
This is a bug report against the generic kernel , i386
As you may know, support for the GMA500 has been under rapid development and there is a psb_gfx staging driver.
You have been kind enough to enable this driver in the kernel, but it conflicts with the gma500 stub driver.
See:
http://
http://
The conflict is with the "polusbo" kernel module
CONFIG_
This needs to change to
CONFIG_
Once you make that change, the psb_gfx module will work out of the box on GMA500 cards with native resolution.
The driver only has 2d , and there are other options post install, but it is better then having X fail on the live CD.
If you have the hardware, you can see for yourself.
Boot the Precise live CD -> X will faiil
switch to a console (ctrl-alt-f2) , become root
rmmod poulsbo
modprobe psb_gfx
Then simply startx
Once you make this config change, you will be the first distro to have support for the gma500 "out of the box"
