    Intel Graphics Driver Question

    I have an HP Pavillion DV6 with the following Intel graphics chip set, running Ubuntu 9.1 Sometimes, the graphics are a little choppy during video or when, say playing a game that has movement, for example a tetris-type game. From reading other posts I understand that the Intel graphics drivers are included in Ubuntu so there is really nothing to upgrade. Is that a true statement? If not what should I be looking for? It it is true, are there system adjustments I should try?
