Hum....
As a "workaround", is it possible to use the 2.10.1-2 version geode driver in Ubuntu Karmic or Jaunty?
I tried to compile the driver from x.org, but it complains about xserver-xorg and xproto packages "not found".

I saw in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-geode/+bug/234898 (i dont know how to use links) that q-funk made the geode-driver 2.11.4.1 avaliable for jaunty, intrepid and even for hardy, but can I (or you) made the 2.10.1-2 avaliable for Jaunty and Karmic? I know it's not the best solution, but it would be good for me as a workaround for my netbook until the bug is fixed upstream (jaunty is much faster in my netbook than intrepid, and Karmic is even more).

Thanks again.
