Hi

Valid device id's for poulsbo are 8086:8108 and 8086:8109 so 8080:8101 is
something else.

You should be fine with just:

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"gma"
	Driver		"modesetting"
EndSection

So there is something else going on. Can we get a full dmesg on 3.9.2 with
drm.debug=0xf

Thanks
Patrik
