No it does not, unfortunately.

This computer has an integrated video card.

lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME
Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

I did not have this problem in Ubuntu 8 and 9.

I think modifying x is rather complicated for me.

Thanks!
