The right diver is loaded (gma500-gfx) but Xorg doesn't fully use it.

Backup up your Xorg.conf file and create a new one with only

Section "Device"
   Identifier "gma500_gfx"
   Driver "modesetting"

EndSection

Most sites [1][2] add

   Option "SWCursor" "ON"

to the Device section

Section "Device"
    Identifier "gma500_gfx"
    Driver "modesetting"
Option "SWCursor" "ON"
EndSection

Success,
