I'm running into the same issue with my mother-in-law's laptop - an hp
pavilion xh675.  Graphics Card is: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade/XP
(rev 63).  I can't enable the visual effects.  I had 8.10 and now have
9.04 with the same issue.

Here's my output on the command you asked the gysirith to get for you:

I'm very green to the whole ubuntu troubleshooting process so please explain any additional troubleshooting steps in simplified steps for me.  Thanks!! -Jenn


Also of note, I ran into an issue with screen resolution but was able to
