Ubuntu 9 w/ S3 Unichrome
I've got an old Averatec 3225 laptop that I'm trying to run Ubuntu 9 on. I've used the Alternative install CD to install the OS, but I'm having problems getting Gnome to come up. When I boot the system, it boots to a command prompt.
I feel pretty confident I need to modify the Xorg config file to use the openchrome driver, but I don't know how. I've attempted to modify /etc/X11/Xorg.conf from the command line, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
I really want this to work on this laptop so I can make use of it again. It's a small, easily portable laptop, but I hate windows so much and don't want to run XP on it.
If anyone has ANY suggestions for this relative linux n00b, it would surely be appreciated.
