Yes. > Do you mind giving summary of your steps as to how you did it? Put the deb-src line from the Ubuntu Mobile Team PPA page into /etc/apt/sources.list and then download the sources and build the packages. A number of adjustments need to be made for the packages to build on Debian unstable, of course. I have got X working now, but only by force-overwriting files in the libdrm2 package and deleting a libdrm.so.2.4*-file by hand, adding a symlink in /lib/ to the libdrm from the libdrm-poulsbo1 package. You can see the changes I had to make in this git-repository: * http://koldfront.dk/gitweb?p=psb;a=summary I simply started with the Ubuntu Mobile Team PPA packages for Jaunty and modified them until I could build on Debian unstable. Missing still is: * Making libdrm-poulsbo1 play nice with libdrm2 (probably need to do something similar to what the libdrm-intel1 package does?) [libdrm-poulsbo]. * Find out what the correct packages to depend on instead of linux-headers-generic and linux-generic are [psb-kernel-source]. * Check that the euid to loginuid change is correct [psb-kernel-source]. * Check how the I2C_HW_B_INTELFB define should be handled [psb-kernel-source]. The only problem I have currently with functionality is that the Synaptics touchpad on my Acer Aspire One 751H doesn't work, so I have to attach a mouse.
