    Hi, the same here. I guess it must be a problem with the Intel Core i (M) CPU (i have i540M in my notebook). It has an integrated GPU which gets disabled I think. Anyway, I have nvidia 330M GPU which works just fine.

    I get the same error message, only I don't have a discrete graphics card, only the integrated card. So it's not disabling the integrated graphics, otherwise I'd have none. I have an Intel i3.

    same message with i5 M450 + ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5000 Series, Ubuntu 10.10.

    System seems to run ok but once in a while the screen freeze (including the mouse pointer) and I can only poweroff/on to recover.

    Can this be the cause?
    (I am seriously considering to go back to windows after many years of Ubuntu because of this!!)

    This is certainly due to the integrated graphics chip. Under Windows the Intel chip can run graphics while the graphic accelerator cores can be used for co-processing. Nvidia calls its technology CUDA. These GPUs are "Massively Parallel Processor Cores". The have been in use by large enterprise and for scientific research and are now making it mainstream as Windows 7 and Snow Leopard support CUDA natively. That coupled with the fact that it is a feature of NVIDIA's latest business and workstation oriented GPUs such as the Quadro. If you will notice late model Dells can EFI boot and now have LatitudeON which is a small Linux installation that runs on a low power integrated circuit and boots instantly allowing, web browsing, email and media playback.

    Change is upon us my friends, but don't worry, the Linux Kernel with catch up and then expand far beyond the features that will be supported on proprietary platforms.

    Who thought we would see BIOS go to that big bottom desk drawer in the sky. (You know the drawer full of crap you keep because your afraid you might need that someday.....)
