i don't have my laptop near me, sorry if i am generic. in case, post questions:
here is what I did
1) install ubuntu dell image 9.04 (jauntry) - 2.1 GB is the correct size
2) run a system update
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
synaptic (or apt, whatever.. ) will remove the old version of Xorg and install a new one, and will do more things...say yes to everything, don't worry and drink a coffe, smoke a cigarette or play for a while with your girl or your pet
suggestion: in case you are playing with your girl, do-not-stop playing once synaptic is ready! otherwise your girl will get angry with you! (my experience)
3) remove from /boot/grub/menu.lst the lines the system added after the update
this because with the new kernel, psb does not work!
-> this rows are referred to the NEW kernel you installed. in facts, after the update you will have 2 different kernel versions inside your system and inside your menu.lst
so, remove the new one ( i remember the last kernel is the 2.6.2x.13)
4) add to your /etc/apt/sources the repositories of psb drivers
deb
http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src
http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

5) run a synaptic update one more time, or apt-get update
6)install xserver-xorg-video-psb it is supposed to be version 0.31.0
apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-psb
the system will install some addtional packages related to psb
7) reboot
8 )at this point, you are supposed to have a 9.04 running in 2D with the resolution you paid for
it worked with my brand new dell mini 10
questions? post here
bye,
fabio
