As a 12-years old (as a linux user) linux user, I have to say it's true. I hoped for a long time that Ubuntu would have been different. In this case, putting the old driver back in the distribution and starting to chose the right driver based on user's feedback until the too many intel issues are solved, would be mandatory. @Bryce, it's easy to put back the old driver in the distribution, and if there is not enough manpower to create the whitelist, I would chose the old one as a default. May I ask you "why not"? The old driver is already "available" in jaunty in a PPA; but the point here is to provide a system that works out of the box. I recall everybody that current intel driver is also extremely slow unless you tweak Xorg.conf. Which is not something we expect from the ordinary _ubuntu_ user. It was already unacceptable to have jaunty ship broken. But if in karmic issues are not solved, please, please, rethink the decision of using the new driver. It's just too early. If intel sees that no one wants their new puppie, they'll start improving it.
