+&gt;<i> Hi
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I got couple of years old Nokia booklet which has gma500 gpu and 1280x768
+</I>&gt;<i> panel. I installed i586 version of Mageia 2 alpha2. Installation went fine
+</I>&gt;<i> but on next reboot the ui failed to show up.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I went to drakconf console and there the display drake identified the card ok
+</I>&gt;<i> and suggested using &quot;Poulsbo US15W (gma500)&quot; driver.
+</I>&gt;<i> That will install dkms-psb module that will howeve fail to load with 3.0
+</I>&gt;<i> kernels.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> If I force the vesa mode in drakconf, then the display works ok in 1280x768
+</I>&gt;<i> mode. (Thought not the world fastest display).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Another option is to use fbdev drivers that to my understand uses
+</I>&gt;<i> new psb_gfx module that is available for 3.2 kernels.
+</I>&gt;<i> (/lib/modules/3.2.0-desktop586-0.rc7.2.mga2/kernel/drivers/staging/gma500/psb_gfx.ko.gz
+</I>&gt;<i> on latest mageia devel kernel)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> With the fbdev kernel, I could however select the 800x600 resolution in
+</I>&gt;<i> maximum with drakconf. Any idea what should be changed in drakconf
+</I>&gt;<i> to enable the psb_gfx/fbdev driver by default with gma500 and to allow
+</I>&gt;<i> to select higher resolution like 1280x768?
+</I>Sorry, i don't have a GMA500 aka Poulsbo, but from what i remember investigating
+for alternatives to this driver (which is prone to breakage due to kernel updates)
+maybe you want to have a look at
