Hi Adam,
There has been a recent update to the Intel drivers, but I am not sure
if those are in any distribution to try:
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/
Maybe the latest Ubuntu Karmic?
Also, you can do some playing around with different options. Because
the whole graphics infrastructure has almost been completely reworked
in Linux, there is a lot of new code that hasn't solidified yet. See
for example:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/UxaTesting
For a very very useful reference reading, see:

Cheers,
Albert.

Hello All -
Does anyone know of some better video card drivers for Jaunty?
Here is what is in there:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4
Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series
Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07)
I am running dual monitor half the time and have to keep the
resolution low on the additional monitor because
the driver decides they have to match vertically, even when the
resolution says otherwise.
I am also seeing strange occurrences such as compiz deciding to
work or not work on every boot, my entire
top left menu going away along with the "system" and "place" drop
downs as well.
This is not a problem unless I have dual monitors going, which I
kind of need at work.
Thanks
