That is the easiest tutorial for Ubuntu / Xubuntu 12.04

if you get some wierd liburl 4 error type:
sudo apt-get install curl
that solves the problem.
I hope that helped.

Dont use ubuntu 12 if this is a dedicated mining rig. Backporting older drivers may not work, and even if it does, its gonna be way above your head.
My advice: install ubuntu 12.04 on your primary desktop or laptop to get familiar with it. But for the mining rig, have a look at BAMT or even good old linuxcoin.
If for some reason you need a full desktop and HDD install on the mining rig, use an older version of (x)ubuntu like 11.10. It will install older drivers and sdk, which are better for mining.
