No thanks to Ubuntu support (or lack thereof), a fellow owner of a Dell
3000 / Intel-865G provided me the solution:
Create / edit / save this file ('vi', notepad, et al):
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-xorg.conf that contains the following
content:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
EndSection
