I have Ubuntu 8.04 on my Hp nw9440.
same thing with the install.  activated the proprietary drives
system>administration>hardware drivers, download with synaptics, and no
more problem.
however my chipset is the nvidia fx1500.

Have had problems with the intel drivers on a desktop, until I
downloaded the xconfig for the 915 chipset

Hope this helps
