@james: I tried out Mint 9; it suffers from the same issues described in here, which is: either the boot logo is completely gone after installing video drivers or only some dots are left. It goes hand in hand with the issue that display brightness cannot be adjusted anymore after installing video drivers. So don't bother about Mint now^^
