!!!! I FIXED IT!!!!!

searching on the forum i found other people that had this problem from what it looks like they were using beta 9.04.

it looks like if you have a intel graphics card it causes a problem, I noticed i was not even able to aply basic desktop effects before i found this fix

Ohhhh YOU ARE DA MAN!!! (Though the gdm restart kicked me into a terminal, but a quick sudo gdm --restart restarted X for me and now i am watching Dr. Who again. Google took me to a bunch of nothing, the Ubuntu forums brought me to you.

Thanks, man. Worked like a charm!!
Thanks again.

Mike.
