I have an ASUS Eee PC 1101HA.
Aside from the Atom Z520 processor it uses a GMA500 embedded graphics card which is part of the SCH US15W chipset, also known as "Poulsbo".

The interesting thing is: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS works out of the box and is reasonably fast.
Now I installed Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and graphics is alsmost unusable.
Also, it has a flickering from the start that I could not get rid of.

This specific 14.04 bug has already been reported:

But since this is a mail archive, I wasn’t able to send a follow-up.

Is there any way to get the "old" but working driver back?
