Hello Everyone TRY THIS WITH ANY NETBOOK WITH GMA500...

I have Ubuntu Netbook for Acer Aspire 751!
I managed to install it properly, it also really smooth for GMA 500 poulsbo!
I know everyone at issues with it, as far as i am concern it does work properly for me, perfect resolution, and all video works better than under Win Xp...So i'm really happy!

Here is what i did, only works for ubuntu 9.10:
Open your terminal and then copy paste each of this!
DO IT ONE BY ONE, then say yes when they ask for install it without verifying, it's fine...It works for me so far...


wget http://poulsbo-karmic.angelfire.com/...oulsbo1.tar.gz

tar -zxvf
poulsbo1.tar.gz

cd poulsbo1

sudo ./install.pl


At the end, just reboot!

just type reboot in the terminal, that's it, enjoy guys

wow, that was classy. shall we get an admin up in here?

[jbernardo]

That guy only made two posts on the forums until now, both advertising this rehash of your (Lucazade) work. Strange.

[zackdk]

That guy, it's me!!!
I haven't done anything wrong ok!!!
Also i found hard to fixed my video problem on acer aspire 751....

No one had an easy step by step explaination...if you did you should have put it down here, ok you geeks!
I'm new to this ****, and basicly i like stuff to work straight from the box, like most people do!

So don't say stuff like he just did 2 message strange.....?
Who you are with you 3000 messages to tell me that, god?
NO!

So please respect other people too, specially when they start using ubuntu on their acer aspire 751, ok!!!

Also Lucazade and Jbernado, don't say stuff which isn't true ok:!!!!


I found my information here:

http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/dell_inspiron_mini12

SO both **** off, thank

[lucazade]

Also Lucazade and Jbernado, don't say stuff which isn't true ok:!!!!

I did both the deb and the script, this is the true!
..and.. i've only asked you *why* you haven't linked directly the source.
bye

To deviate from the less productive discussion and focus on more productive.

The script worked for me (Thanks Lucazade), and the Poulsbo 2D is working very well overall.

3D stuff has a very specific problem. It works quite well after reboot before the first sleep. 3D does not work after waking up from sleep. What does not work mean? Glxgears open a black rectangle and shows nothing. Exits with a "bus error". Gnometris (Karmic - only, Jaunty and earlier were 2D) gives this error:

(gnometris:29233): ClutterGLX-CRITICAL **: Unable to make the stage window 0x2200049 the current GLX drawable

Glxinfo output looks healthy after sleep (GLX renderer).

Any ideas? Anyone experienced this symptoms?
