Steve: I was using the Karmic Kernel with the Ubuntu-X driver, that fixed my problem.

Additionally, today, GDM wouldn't log me in. Screen blinks and just goes back to GDM login.

This is, ironically, due to the Ubuntu-X repositories. The 2.9 driver has long since been in the Karmic repos, however, the newer Mesa stuff in U-X breaks the driver somehow. Failsafe GNOME was the only thing that would work. So that which fixed my problem now breaks my system. :-) Turning off this repo and downgrading the mesa stuff back to the Karmic repos has everything working great again, where I think I'll keep it unless I have a really good reason.
