Here is a brief description how I installed the Alpha_5 of Hardy on my X61 Tablet. I downloaded the alternate Version and installed as the instructions said.

Graphic

X

Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add to Section Screen

SubSection "Display"
	Virtual 3000 2250
EndSubSection

The Parameters behind Virtual must be bigger than all your Displays added together (3000 = 1400 + 1600) Now you can adust you settings with xrandr. e.g.:

xrandr --output LVDS --rotate left
xrandr --output LVDS --rotate normal
xrandr --output VGA --auto --right-of LVDS
…

Konsole

Edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer and comment this out:

#blacklist vesafb
#blacklist vga16fb

Add to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules

fbcon
vesafb
vga16fb

Run

sudo update-initramfs -u

Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change at defoptions:

vga=0x31b

Run

sudo update-grub
