Relatively good news: testing with the 2010-03-04 LiveCD i386 Ubuntu
image, after hitting bug #532530 "Segmentation fault at address (nil)"
at the first log-in, and after stopping/restarting GDM, a Gnome session
is started at 800x600. This doesn't scale to fill the 1024x768 screen
but is centred on the LCD panel.

I then tried to test the xorg.conf used in the installed 9.10
configuration from the hard-drive, and given here in comment #12. That
failed with an error reporting that DRI is not possible using colour-
depth of 24 bits; only 16 bits is supported. Attempts to restart the
xserver with 16-bit dept failed because the int10 code kept issuing a
seg-fault!

With a fresh boot the Ubuntu LiveCD logged in automatically the first
time but the screen is again offset, and I notice this time is missing
the gnome-panel across the top. I'm attaching a photo of this.
