I have read a lot of articles on this and found a patch for this as well but i still can't get it working.. I believe this is because am a total noob.. all the same am a fast learner and would love it if i could have the step by step compilation.I use hardy.
I keep getting errors even after getting the patch. I got it from here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/196285 and http://www.willdaniels.co.uk/index.php/blog/tech-stuff. I'd like to display a break down of my display..
