VERY interesting. I am going to try this on my laptop tonight. What
is the procedure to fail back if the new driver has issues? Just
remove the backports repo, and reinstall original
xserver-xorg-video-intel from the main repo?

i try the vesa-mode: it works much better like the unstable intel-driver.
the frames are lower but the window's are not longer ugly and confused.
i load the xorg.conf.failsafe in the x11 folder.
This is interesting. How exactly do you force it to use the vesa driver

Thats what I was thinking but am not sure. I've attached my Xorg.0.log.
Either way, as you can see in the screencast, I have the same issues as
a lot of other people.

Thanks. I was pretty sure I was using the Intel driver since i was able
to turn compiz on.
Is there a way to get a screen capture of the boot process other than
recording w/ my camera?

I grabbed a vid w/ my camera and uploaded it. It should be available
shortly.
The video shows exactly what happens when I try to start Ubuntu using
the normal Kernel. The screen flashes all crazy, and then just sits
there. I have to boot using Recovery Mode to get into a working X.
I have this issue on my Dell Inspiron 1525 as well. I have a few other
graphical issues w/ this Intel card as well. Marcelo above me had a
good idea about the screencast. I'm adding mine, and it shows a similar
experience.
