Xorg driver from Ubuntu in Lenny

[Kushal Koolwal <kushalkoolwal@hotmail.com>]

Hi,

The graphics driver for my chipset (xserver-xorg-video-psb) has not yet made into Debian's repo (not even experimental) but is available in Ubuntu repo.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/ro/hardy/i386/xserver-xorg-video-psb/download

I see that I can install the above package on my Debian 5.0 (2.6.30 kernel - x86) system however, the X server won't start and gives the following error messages:

(II) Module Intel Poulsbo: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 1.3.0, module version = 0.0.1
        Module class: X.Org Video Driver
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 1.2
(EE) module ABI major version (1) doesn't match the server's version (2)

        Module class: X.Org XInput Driver
        ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 2.0
(EE) No drivers available.

Fatal server error:
no screens found

Any ideas how to use a Ubuntu package in Debian and is there any way I can resolve the above error messages (compiling by source)?

Thanks
