I'll not give all the shell instructions in this set of posts. You're on your mainly own.
If you have setup everything including a mirror with specific binaries and a new Lenny iso CD image with network/X11 support, please just send a mail at kaos@mutins.org and I'll add a link somewhere.
Yet but not least, since all this is collaborative works, many thanks to:

Gnome is out, e17 is in

Benoît — 2016-05-06T19:24:10Z

We should go for the 3G, SMS and GPS or other functionnalities such as the cams, yet I don't like gnome on the M! and rather consider e17 as a real alternative. So e17, here we go, and we'll take care of the other stuff at some later time.
cd /usr/src/; mkdir e17; cd e17/
sudo aptitude install svn cvs
edit a shell file and paste this: #!/bin/bash
set -e

Setting up the touchscreen

Benoît — 2016-05-06T19:22:43Z

This step is shorter than the previous ones.
We have network, X, yet we still need a mouse to use gnome. This isn't ideal for an UMPC configuration. So let's get the touchscreen working.
To do this, we'll open a root console. Configure your keyboard if needed. Proceed with the touchscreen part as follows (adapt the wget to the right file form ideacom):
cd /usr/src; mkdir touchscreen; cd touchscreen/
wget http://www.ideacom.com.tw/download/DRIVE/IDC_Linux_3_1_0.tar.gz
tar -zxvf (...)

Compiling the psb stuff

Benoît — 2016-05-06T19:21:31Z

For this part, i've been greatly helped by this post. So many thanks to the author for writing it!
We'll follow the steps he provides and addapt them when needed.
Steps 1 and 2 should no pose no major problem. Add the required /etc/apt/sources.list entry, update and install the needed packages.
dkms is only available in backports for the moment, apt might warn about this package not being found. You might also want to install the devscripts package. The m-a prepare step will fail in (...)

Brave new kernel

Benoît — 2016-05-06T19:20:14Z

Fine! We've got a debian installed, failing to provide touchscreen functionnalities, but heh, who cares? You've got a USB mouse since you've read Step 0. Didn't you? X is working for now, but we'll break it. We want internet!
Trying to get to an access point under the current kernel will usually lead to hangs. As far as i've been digging, this was related to some race condition on the SDIO/MMC side. Since I just don't know a hell about these cards and parts of the kernel, let's get a fresh new (...)
