Jolicloud: No GMA 500 support – get Ubuntu 9.10 instead!
Jolicloud OS consistency with lots of new netbooks have been posted on the website. But there is no support for GMA 500 graphics powered netbooks.
Instead of going with Jolicloud, we would recommend our readers to go for something like Ubuntu 9.10 OS (review) or UBUNTU NBR for which GMA 500 drivers are already available.
