@jimpop, this is not a place to vent your frustration. Would we have received a suitable driver for the current kernels, we'd have uploaded it in the ~ubuntu-mobile PPA or even to Ubuntu as we did for the previous versions.
Intel has top quality drivers for its other chipsets, but not for Poulsbo due to a complex IP issues. This is not in our control to fix for them, and we don't have the resources to reverse engineer or forward port the existing kernel bits (these were even rejected from staging in the upstream linux kernel). If you're aware of a forward ported or reverse engineered driver which we could include, then this is the right place to mention it. I think it's too late for the 9.10 release, but it could be prepared in a PPA or considered for 10.04. (Note that the recipes in this bug only apply to the xorg video driver but don't cover the kernel counterparts which are needed for psb-drm and hence 2D and 3D acceleration.) -- MASTER: GMA-500 lacks driver for 8.10 and 9.10 (poulsbo works only on 8.04 and 9.04) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330906 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
