You probably shouldn't try to install that. It may be source, but more likely it is for i386 machines. The Q7 uses ARM, not Intel or AMD. And it's from a much more recent distribution, so would likely break something.

If libXt is available in your package manager, then install that version. Although it's probably already installed. The version of Ubuntu that is on the Q7 is quite outdated. We need to find a way to get Jaunty on it.

As for the "clock=pit" stuff, on i386/AMD machines, it is added to the config file menu.lst when using grub -- I haven't used lilo -- which is found in the /boot/grub directory. Take a look and see if it exists; if it does, post it here and I'll suggest changes.
