I'm in a rather unusual situation here, not even having Ubuntu installed, but I think I have some new information.
I'm a Gentoo user, and I have this problem too. The bug is strictly depending on one of their packages, x11-drivers/xf86-video-i810. The last version of the package that works is 2.3.2 and the first that I can confirm as broken is 2.4.1. I have no idea about 2.4.0. I updated my system today, and with 2.4.2 the problem persists. I'm still using 2.3.2. Hope this helps. Not having Ubuntu there is nothing more I can do, but I hope this narrows things down a bit.
