Fedora 11 Intel Poulsbo (GMA500) Graphic Drivers Repository

Adam Williamson has made available a repository containing a full set of packages to install the driver for Intel Poulsbo (GMA500) graphics chipsets (found in the Dell Mini 12, Sony Vaio P and other systems) on Fedora 11 (i586 only, not working for x86_64). The repository contains builds of all the latest components extracted from the Ubuntu Netbook Remix repositories where the driver is 'released'. 3D acceleration support, including Compiz, is working in this build.

To install, as root:
rpm -Uvh http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/poulsbo/i586/poulsbo-repository-release-11-1.noarch.rpm
yum install xorg-x11-drv-psb

The only thing you’ll have to do manually is set up a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. If you want, you can use this one. It has a Screen section which sets up a framebuffer size of 3280×1050, for a 1680×1050 display side-by-side with the 1600×768 panel. If you create your own xorg.conf, you may still need the line ‘Option “IgnoreACPI”‘ in the Device section, or you may not – I’m not entirely sure if it’s still needed with these latest versions of everything.
