Poulsbo Display driver Dell Mini 10

After adding the RPM Fusion repositories, install the Poulsbo driver by running this command:

yum install xorg-x11-drv-psb

After installing the driver, edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. These settings worked on the Dell Mini 10:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "psb"
Option "IgnoreACPI"
EndSection

Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "screen1"
Device "Videocard0"
DefaultColorDepth 24

Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Virtual 1024 600
EndSubsection
EndSection


After rebooting the PC the display took a bit longer than usual to load X.
