Did a bit of Googling and seem that it might not be practical to get
those drivers running under jaunty...

It seem to reduce the options to "wait for the R300 driver to be
fixed" (of fix it yourself), "get a newer graphics card", "downgrade
to Ubuntu 8.10 or earlier" or "try another distribution that allow you
to choose the Xorg version" (Gentoo comes to mind, but it is not
really the easiest distribution to get started on...)
