thanks for the testing package.. going to try it as soon as I go back home on my Acer751h.

Yes, I believe 8108 and 8109 are enough for the poulsbo chipsets out there.. they are for the gma500, the others are for gma600 and Medfield variants (usually not netbook but embedded devices).

I don't know if kernel 3.4 might solve the issue without blacklisting the pci ids, I'll try it more in depth because I've already installed it via xorg-edgers ppa (along side new xorg-mesa bits). Alan Cox, the gma500_gfx author, is aware of the vt.handoff and plymouth issue so he had probably solved in the latest kernel builds.

I'll let you know soon :)
