The Intel Acceleration Graphic card GMA 600 is similar to the GMA 500
which used the driver PSB Poulsbo or EMGD, could the GMA 600 use the
EMGD drivers?


Intel has multiple graphic chipsets, each of which has their own proprietary
userland driver, their own kernel module, and sometimes a separate GPU
driver.    In addition, some versions of MeeGo use OpenGL/GLX, and others
user OpenGLES/EGL.   You are not alone in your confusion, I assure you!

Note that a "zypp up" on N450 machines with MeeGo-IVI automatically installs
EMGD drivers even on machines with i915 chipsets.      (There is a "switch
 .  .  . case" construct whose default if nothing string-matches is to
install EMGD.   I'm not making this up!)  Do not blindly "zypp up" on WeTab,
ExoPC or Lenovo S10!

HTH,
Alison
