I have this exact system. In order to get 3D effects you'll have to load
an i965 enabled kernel. Here is a test kernel that will get replaced
when the next Feisty SRU is released.

wget 
http://people.ubuntu.com/~rtg/inspiron-1420/linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic_2.6.20-16.30_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic_2.6.20-16.30_i386.deb
sudo reboot

The package versions must be as follows:
915resolution                              0.5.2-10ubuntu2
libgl1-mesa-dri                            6.5.2-3ubuntu8
libgl1-mesa-glx                            6.5.2-3ubuntu8
libglu1-mesa                               6.5.2-3ubuntu8
mesa-utils                                 6.5.2-3ubuntu8
xserver-xorg-video-intel                   1.9.94-1ubuntu4

I'm not really sure what you mean about not having /etc/X11/xorg.conf,
but here is one that works:

wget http://people.ubuntu.com/~rtg/inspiron-1420/xorg.conf
sudo cp xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
