This is really disappointing. This problem has been around for about a year, IIRC, and seems to affect quite a lot of people with older hardware. If I wanted an OS that only worked on the latest and best hardware, I'd buy a new machine and install Windows 7, which is actually a pretty good OS. I've been using Linux since 1994 and it's unfortunate how far from the spirit of the original Canonical seems to have strayed in recent years. I'm going to give Mint a shot for my Inspiron 8600.
