Similar problem here. Also intrepid, not dual boot. Intel dual CPU and
Intel on-board graphics chip. I don't think I changed anything except
routinely doing upgrades.

Problem appeared after reboot a couple of weeks back. Menu bar at
top of screen is gone. Also, display size is now smaller, does not fill
entire 19xx by 10xx screen any more. Checking the settings menu
that should let me adjust that, it does not have an appropriate entry.
