Robert, since this is reproducible for us on a stock Natty install, I've
generated an apport report on Natty, and I'm attaching it here.

Steps to reproduce:

1.  Configure T420s in the BIOS to use Intel integrated graphics.
2.  Install Natty with the Ubuntu desktop task
3.  After install, GDM and X will start normally.
4.  Shut down the laptop
5.  Power on the laptop.  When X starts, the display is corrupted as David 
explains above--2/3 of the screen is black and 1/3 is black and white striped.  
At this point, you can fix the display by closing the lid to suspend and then 
opening the lid again.

I should point out that not all T420s Thinkpads exhibit this problem.
We have some, type 4174AY9, that have this problem.  But also I have a
4174A11 model that doesn't have this problem.
