First time I've seen Karlstad mentioned on Slashdot :) Was it taken on Kronoparken?

The "Bloody Mess" That Is Intel's Poulsbo Driver 231

Posted by kdawson on Saturday January 31, 2009 @04:40PM from the how-not-to dept.

AdamWill writes "Phoronix writes about the mess that is the Linux support situation for Intel's new graphics chipset, the GMA 500 — aka Poulsbo. Near the end they refer to my own post on the topic ('Okay, so after a whole day spent bashing around at this crap, I can very confidently and conclusively say, it's utterly broken'). Intel has a reputation as one of the most clued-up open source-friendly hardware companies, but if they can't sort out the mess surrounding the driver for this chipset — which is already used on the Dell Mini 12 and Sony Vaio P, and will be used on many future Intel-based systems — that reputation will take a serious hit."
