Please guys. This thing is really becoming unbearable. Is there a way, a work around this problem. I got an Intel card because I was told it works better with linux. This as been the case till ubuntu 8.10 when the Intel graphic performance for 965 took a nose dive which it never recovered from. Karmic and Lucid have been the worst experience. It seems Intel has totally forgotten about "older" chipset. things are so bad that I am currently considering getting a new laptop just because of this issue :(. And this is not just an ubuntu issue. Infact the situation is worse with fedora and archlinux. Is there a way out of this issue or I need to get a new laptop with Nvidia/ ATI
