Thanks for reporting this bug in Ubuntu. You're right that this ought to be falling back to the vesa driver. Can you do two things?

First, please attach your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and the output of lspci -vvnn.

Second, experiment with moving your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf-orig and running X with no xorg.conf. This will tell us if in this case, Xorg itself can detect things properly.
