Have a brand new i5 540-based x201 and encountered this issue with 10.04 x86_64. #107 is working for me as well. After deb install and reboot X would not start though:
(EE) VESA: Kernel modesetting driver in use, refusing to load (EE) No devices detected Restarting X and removing /etc/X11/xorg.conf seemed to take care of it.
