Blueprint changed by Lucazade:

Whiteboard changed:
  EMGD 1.5.2 packaged and working :)
  
  
  Compatibility:
  * Maverick (kernel 2.6.35 and xorg 1.9)
  * Natty (kernel 2.6.38 and xorg 1.9) .. thanks Tista for patch!
  
  
  Installation:
  Drivers are available in this PPA:  https://launchpad.net/~gma500/+archive/emgd
  
  I've also created a small script to automatize installation
  wget dl.dropbox.com/u/1338581/emgd.sh && sudo sh ./emgd.sh
  
  at the end of installation script it will be opened /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  to modify lcd resolution if different from 1366x768
  
  
  To be done/fixed:
- * Emgd-ui is still broken (it is a gui interface to customize driver settings), anyway at the moment we can live without it.
- Looks like a problem with path in makefile, I suppose :S
- Failed buildlog: https://launchpad.net/~lucazade/+archive/emgd152/+buildjob/2232800/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.emgdui_1.0-1.2.0~maverick4_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz
- 
- * Build mplayer-vaapi and gnome-mplayer against libva included in Ubuntu
- repositories and put in PPA.
- 
+ * Build mplayer-vaapi and gnome-mplayer against libva included in Ubuntu repositories and put in PPA.
  * Package xorg 1.9 in PPA (useful when Natty will switch to xorg 1.10)
  
  
  Working features:
  * 2D 
  * 3D
  * Xv videoplayback (totem, skype, cheese..)
  * Vaapi videoplayback (not tested in depth yet!)
  * Compiz, Unity-2D
+ * EMGD Ui - configuration tool
  
  
  Broken features:
  * Brightness hotkeys (at least with acer751h, working correctly with asus1101HA)
  * Suspend (needs workaround)
  
  
  Known Workarounds:
  * Grub, Vts and Plymouth with native resolution:
  echo "GRUB_GFXMODE=1366x768" | sudo tee -a "/etc/default/grub"
  echo "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep" | sudo tee -a "/etc/default/grub"
  sudo update-grub
  
  
  * Suspend:
  sudo mv /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/99video /usr/lib/pm-utils/99video
