    I've been using the psb-gfx driver for a while. It's not too bad. The compiz effects emulation is...

    FYI lucazade posted here on installing the PSB driver for Natty. This is what I was looking for before. It requres a downgraded kernel, but uses the newer xorg. I will give this a try at some point.
