New GMA 500 Poulsbo drivers for the Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala

There is no need to use 9.04 Ubuntu’s drivers now on the Karmic Koala as there are new GMA 500 drivers for the Karmic Koala. Just add the following repositories to the sources (System>Administration>software sources>”Other Software”)

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lucazade/gma500/ubuntu/ karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/lucazade/gma500/ubuntu/ karmic main

..and then install psb-kernel sources and psb-kernel headers using the following commands:

sudo apt–get install psb-kernel-source

sudo apt-get install psb-kernel-headers

sudo apt-get install psb-modules

Reboot.

Note: You can reboot using sudo reboot in the terminal
