Resolution, refresh rate & speed of the video / graphics of a PC is of the utmost importance! I have installed the x-updates from 10/17/09 (1ubuntu2~xup~3) fro Intel, also mesa-drivers. Speed is ok for me, except for watching onl movies. Resolutions & refresh rates have not improved. The black frames around windows have returned, I could live with that, but screen flicker at 75 Hz is painful to my eyes, & tiresome as well. I do not know how to get the attention of Bryce Harrington, I have e-mailed him, but I am not aware of proper protocol to follow with the Ubuntu community. Anyway, here are some more attachments, but it looks like video will be regressed in Karmic Koala. BavarianPH, Ubuntu forever!
