deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/q-funk/ubuntu hardy main

2) sudo apt-get update
3) sudo dpkg -P --force-depends xserver-xorg-video-amd xserver-xorg-video-geode
4) sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-amd=2.7.7.8-0ubuntu1
5) Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by adding " Driver "amd" " to the Device Section:

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "amd"
        VendorName  "Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]"
        BoardName   "Geode LX Video"

resolution.
