Well, now that I've managed to get Debian booting on the tablet, and I've managed to get XFce and Gimp running natively, I can report that pressure sensitivity does not work. I'm pretty sure this is just because I don't have the touchscreen drivers or the wrong X-server up (I couldn't get XFce to start directly on Xomap, only on Xephyr running on Xomap)

By the way, Mojo Ubuntu's numbers are pretty depressing at the moment. Look at the number of "complete" packages vs the total number of packages in Ubuntu. Sigh.

Grumpy ARMv5EL:
Complete: 2205 out of 13586 (all from "main") = 16%

Frisky ARMv6EL-VFP:
Complete: 2306 out of 12769 (one from "multiverse"!) = 18%

I see why they aimed at an earlier version; fewer packages and a better compilation rate.
