Natty worked out of the box on stamina.

I use kernel option acpi_osi="" for graphics switching (regular
procedure, works after reboot). Installed nvidia-current to get nvidia
working.

I'm using adam's upstart script for moving graphics libraries after
switching (http://www.voip-x.co.uk/files/adam/IMPORTANT_README - not
using his kernel though).
