Ah! Someone's got some switchable graphics. That's not going to be as well-tested as other setups, so you might run into problems others aren't seeing. If you feel like some additional testing, the NouveauEvaluation wiki page[1] has instructions for testing more recent upstream versions of Nouveau. There's at least one commit in there relevant to switchable graphics. Regardless of whether you test the newer nouveau, it would be useful if you could file a bug on launchpad. “ubuntu-bug xorg” will attach a bunch of useful information.
