For those like myself wishing to stick with LTS, I have the 855GM
working beautifully with desktop effects, xvideo and no known problems
or side effects.  Using, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes
as a reference, I enabled KMS and enabled the glasen ppa to install the
latest intel driver (currently 2.15.0) and related packages like libdrm2
and libdrm-intel1.

I'm also running kernel 2.6.38-10-generic #46~lucid1-Ubuntu from lucid-
updates.  I was running backported kernels before, but this one came up
a few days ago and has run very nicely.  I thought Lucid was sticking to
2.6.32, but this seems to be a supported kernel and even says in the
notes that Canonical will support it until October 2011.
