Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Freshly updated Lucid on a MSI Wind U100.
'startx' produces these errors on TTY and in /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

The files in /usr/lib/dri come from the libgl1-mesa-dri package, which is a dependency of xorg which is a dependency of ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-netbook.

Could you check that you have this package installed? What is the output of “apt-cache policy libgl1-mesa-dri”?

Thanks for the hint. Indeed xorg depends on it, but xserver-xorg-core and xserver-xorg only recommend it.
That's why I didn't have it installed.
