EDIT:
This is the out of glxinfo on my ubuntu install, if i would judge from it i have full 3d
misha@cube:~$ glxinfo
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2



I have same strings in the Satux, and have full 3d, in 8.10 I have same strings too, but .... no 3d

Ok, we have the same laptop. Do you have 3d? What drivers are you using?

[Retraut]

Yes, I have 3d, but only with Satux (Debian 4.0), and his 3d beta driver )))))

I managed to get the driver working with 2D acceleration (with Xaa, x86 arch) in Jaunty. If anyone has Jaunty installed and wants to test the driver send me a line.

I plan to get the driver operational with 2d accel in x86 and amd64 by the Jaunty beta release.

I am now in jaunty. If you need help to test this, pm me

I asked Barros Lee to send me SiS driver for Ubuntu 8.10 x64. He answered that they don't have 64bit driver for this version. Sad.

P.S. He attached a driver for Ubuntu 8.10 x32: sis_vga_drv_161208-Ubuntu810.run

Also Barros said:

...But recently, SiS don't allowed me to release 2d driver now...But I think they will release sis 2d driver source code soon....

Well i got satux 1.8 the driver works, i got full 3D the supertux game runs, the wifi works nothing bad to say ....

It seems like satux 1.8 is just a mod of debian etch so these drivers might work on it.

Think i am gonna stick with it for a while, in the installation of 1.8 u can make it in english.

No need to pm me. Just say if I can test a beta driver for jaunty.
