Hi,

I am using a Thinkpad T61 and just upgraded from 8.10 to 9.04, I am unable to load the desktop effects on Jaunty, it gives me the error "Desktop effects could not be enabled". Can anyone help?

Have you read The Release Notes (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904) ?
If you are an intel user this is expected.

I am running Intel GMA X3100, I think this is indeed a documented bug, do I roll back the Jaunty Xorg intel driver to 2.4? I read that it might help. Thanks for the quick answers, I really appreciate it =)
