I'm having problems with the intel 950 chipset and "intel experimental modesetting driver" on Ubuntu 7.10 on a Toshiba A205-S4777 laptop. The graphics quality is poor both on the laptop monitor and external monitor. It almost looks like the resolution or sync rate isn't set properly for each - "1" characters are randomly thick or thin as though they are falling on pixel boundaries without anti-aliasing. Window effects like maximize/minimize are clunky compared to a new desktop machine I have also running Ubuntu 7.10. Also, using the external monitor is problematic. On reboot, the laptop does not display on the external monitor, *unless* I open preferences->administration->screens and graphics sometime before rebooting, and then it reboots fine with display to the monitor. Very strange.
