Poulsbo (aka GMA500)

This is a short guide on getting the Poulsbo graphics working nicely with SliTaz.

Start by booting the 4.0 version of SliTaz with a working network connection. Run the installer and when asked for source pick Web and paste the following url:

http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/rolling/slitaz-rolling.iso

After a successful installation you will need to do the following steps to get the graphics working.

# nano /etc/rcS.conf

Look for the row called LOAD_MODULES and remove poulsbo from the list, also make sure that psb_gfx is present.

Then remove VESA and add the psb_gfx module (which is inside the linux-staging package):

# tazpkg remove xorg-xf86-video-vesa 
# tazpkg recharge
# tazpkg get-install linux-staging

The fbdev-driver also needs to be installed (to replace VESA) and up-to-date:

# tazpkg -gi xorg-xf86-video-fbdev

Simply reboot and the graphics should work nicely with the correct resolution.
