Just a post for the people that are having trouble getting 10.04 to run on the intel on board video mobo.
I ran the Xorg -configure command from the prompt in recovery mode
this gave me the xorg.conf.new file in /root
I first tried to use the vesa driver but I could not get that to work.
in the "Device" section I changed the setting for NoAccel
part of my xorg.conf
Section "Device"
### Available Driver options are:-
### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
### [arg]: arg optional
Option "NoAccel" "True" # [<bool>]
#Option "SWcursor" # [<bool>]
#Option "ColorKey" # <i>
#Option "CacheLines" # <i>
#Option "Dac6Bit" # [<bool>]
#Option "DRI" # [<bool>]
#Option "NoDDC" # [<bool>]
#Option "ShowCache" # [<bool>]
#Option "XvMCSurfaces" # <i>
#Option "PageFlip" # [<bool>]
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BoardName "82865G Integrated Graphics Controller"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

Renamed xorg.conf.new to xorg.conf and moved it to /etc/X11
It worked for me so give it a shot
I also got all the updates I could
Hope this helps
