Yes, you're quite correct Rob. Adding

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-updates main restricted

to /etc/apt/sources.list in the chroot environment does get the 2.9
drivers, as well as numerous other updates.

Unfortunately that only gets me as far as a partial desktop (no menu
or task bar) in 640x480. At 800x600 I seem to get 4 640x480 size
screens overlapping, complete with 4 pointers. Still no menubar or
taskbar. Intriguing, but not particularly useful.

Having looked at some of the bug reports related to Geode that Arno
mentioned earlier, I'm getting the distinct impression that I should
avoid hardware based on Geode.

Thanks for all the help.

Sean
