Yeah, the shadow buffer mode does disable OpenGL. I forgot to mention it. It's a sort of safe mode that's a more functional alternative to the vesa driver.
I'm refreshing the kernels in my graphics-fixes PPA, since 2.6.35-v9patch1 is getting kind of stale. There have been relevant fixes in the 2.6.35.x line of stable releases, and this new build will include them. One fix is cursor-related, so hopefully that will make your cursor visible again. Another fix involves a black-screen bug.
The freshened kernel that also includes the v9 patch will be called linux-image-2.6.35-v9patch+19-generic. It should be up later today.
