Yes, i would like to know how to make it work too, i don't think it's a matter of linux version (i.e kernel/xorg) but rather of the video driver and its settings.
I managed to make it work on Mint 9 or Lucid with PSB drivers but that was dramaticaly slow, near unusable but on Mint 10 with EMGD it always crashes on startup and even the system too so it needs a hard reset (really nice

), even tried with sources compilation.
I'm searching for someone who managed to make it work on recent Mint/Ubuntu release with emgd drivers, please...
