Looks good. The right driver is used.
Add a Screen and Monitor selection to the Xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "gma500_gfx"
Monitor "Monitor0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Monitor Model"
EndSection
The system boots but when GDM starts i just see a blank screen..
Switch back to tty1, kill gdm and start the X server with startx
Yes i tried that and i get an error: no screens found

Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support
at http://wiki.x.org
for help.
There are a lot of trial and error stories about the gma500 module.
An other possible solution. add
Option "IgnoreACPI" "yes"
to the device section of your xorg.conf
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=533450
Success,

Tried various options today and finally modified xorg.conf with below
settings made my X server start with multiple displays enabled.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel GMA3600"
Driver "modesetting"
BusID "PCI: 0: 2: 0
Option "Monitor-DVI-0" "DVI screen"
Option "Monitor-VGA-0" "VGA screen"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DVI screen"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "VGA screen"
EndSection
However, i notice that the display is not smooth. Even, when i traverse
to from one menu to other i see it so shaky. Right now fighting to fix that.
Need some guidance
