I installed it and the locking problem vanished, but I've noticed that 
firefox scrolls very slowly.  I've switched drivers a few times to 
confirm.  My hardware is:

82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)

I also tried the i810 driver, but that turns my screen into a blurry
mess.

Any idea why the new driver would cause firefox to scroll slowly.  This 
was also the case on an RC version of Ubuntu I tried that cleared up 
with the final release.  Everything else seems zippy.
