Well, that's almost as much of a problem as the drivers either being targeted at Xorg 1.6 or only being available for Android. But as vgrade showed us, if you're persistent you can make things happen.

So for now MeeGo is barely portable to any arm based platform.
MeeGo is totally portable to ARM. I don't recall softfp drivers for Ubuntu being terribly useful in MeeGo, otherwise we would have hardware acceleration on Tegra 2 (and other platforms) ages ago.
