Hi, I'm new here and decided to try Mandriva specifically to try poulsbo drivers under linux.

I have a Dell mini-10 netbook, which has the Intel GMA 500 poulsbo graphics driver.

I know of the "workaround" posted for Ubuntu 9.04, and have this currently installed onto my multiboot setup.

I also tried Debian "Lenny" on this netbook, but there seems to be no support for the poulsbo graphics.

I'm currently downloading the following ISO via a torrent, and hopefully it will finish by later tonight.

mandriva-linux-one-2010.0-rc2-GNOME-europe-americas-cdrom-i586.iso

I'm hoping the poulsbo drivers are included, but if not, I'll search for the drivers after testing this live image.

 

Thank you,

Jon
