There are reported bugs about that. It seems to be a common issue with 9.10 fresh install or upgrade. For example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/404421?comments=all I was quite perplexed for a while until I realized that GRUB 2 is installed and I need to press "shift" to enter the menu (I fail to understand how removing all notices from screen is 'user friendly') so I can enter kernel options. Also, finally I gave up on the netbook launcher and such, I unchecked "maximus" and "netbook launcher" in the "startup applications" (odd place for them , I think) and ended up with a minimal desktop which I configured manually to show the menus and such. Now it works quite fast. I have some evtouch calibration related issues left to deal with.
