Nephron at XDA has a great guide to setting up ADB here.

Note the GUIDE references an HTC phone, but I can confirm that this method works with the rooted (very important -ROOTED) -X10 AS WELL.
 
i did exactly as it says but it doesnt work. when it is installing the driver it finds it automatically and there isnt a usb_folder in sdk. aslo when i type in android-sdk-windows\tools it say it is not recognized as an internal or external command.
What should i do?
 
some sdk packages state that they have moved adb to another folder called platform-tools , so you have to change that line to read :

" cd c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools " without the quotes..

and then typing "adb shell"

I have gotten to this part , but cannot get to install once doing "su" and then "dd if=....................." part. It tells me that there is no file named "sdcard/install"

I have tried to install it from the phone directly using "terminal emulator" app. from Market, but I seem to get lost once it starts to work and then says cannot find file or directory named " /data/install".
So if anyone has more info . would love to hear it...
 
Yes i have , but I still can't get it to install the way they say to do it. always gets stopped at "/sdcard/install" on pc adb shell

or

get stopped at "/data/install" when doing it thru terminal emulator on phone
