Hi Meghana, As Greg mentioned, Poulsbo is not currently supported. Without hardware acceleration for graphics, Flash shows you that specific message. The background to the story is that, unlike other Intel graphics cards that have excellent Linux support, the graphics card that comes with Poulsbo is quite different which requires extra work to make an open-source driver. From previous messages in this list, it appears that Intel is working on creating an open-source graphics driver for Poulsbo and may appear in the future. A temporary workaround for some people is to use a special binary (closed-source) graphics driver for Poulsbo, that first appeared with Ubuntu 8.04 and netbooks that shipped with that special version of Ubuntu. If you check the archives of this mailing list (May 2009), you can find some information on how to install this closed-source driver. Finally, you might want to contact the Intel customer care website and mention that you are looking forward to seeing the open-source graphics driver for Poulsbo, and ask when it will be available. I hope this helps, Simos _______________________________________________ Moblin dev Mailing List [email protected] To manage or unsubscribe from this mailing list visit: https://lists.moblin.org/mailman/listinfo/dev or your user account on http://moblin.org once logged in.
