Sounds like what I experienced.  I found that using the 'Safe' Video 
Mode (vesa driver) worked okay albeit slow.

I found this on the Ubuntu forums, not sure if it'll help at all.  It 
seems to suggest that Compiz is causing some issues?

I haven't personally tried it as I've been too tied up and I don't have 
any VIA chipset machines at home.
