    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.

    yes I think so, I have core i5 430M which has the same HD GPU & have Radeon 5650 HD works fine.
    So, this is a bug in ubuntu, they should solve it

    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!!)

    Now that we've established that a few people have it, does anyone out there have any suggestions as to how to fix it? I can tell that my graphics are definitely not being accelerated since I got that error (from upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10).

    I also experience this error msg when starting Ubuntu 10.10
    How can I check if my graphics are accelerated? (whatever that means?)
