I would consider myself a GNU/Linux savvy, and I can manage to get the GMA500 up and running. Unfortunately, there is no driver out there that enables any sort of hardware acceleration, and this is clearly unacceptable…

It is true that if you have some savy with linux you can get things running, but why do we need to go through so much work. Intel really ticked me off with this move. I cannot fathom why they did this to us.
