i810 driver not found after newest Karmic updates

[Ilmari Vacklin]

Binary package hint: xorg

After the newest Karmic updates (3.10.2009), Xorg.log has the following:

(II) LoadModule: "i810"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module i810
(II) UnloadModule: "i810"
(EE) Failed to load module "i810" (module does not exist, 0)
(II) LoadModule: "vesa"

I am using Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and I have the appropriate metapackages installed. xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed. The desktop falls back to vesa, which is naturally terribly slow.
