Fantastic. Can't wait to use it, my eyes hurt using the 8.9" screen.

Let us know how to install it.

Hi,

I've patched Xorg so that the Siliconmotion driver doesn't crash
anymore. It does need an xorg.conf for that, which you can find on the
wiki [1]. I haven't yet found how to create that automatically. I'm not
sure if the driver is significantly better than framebuffer, but X not
crashing is an improvement.
