i am facing the same issue.

i haven't tried the solution posted here but i can use my system with the older kernel and also in the recovery mode and starting x in safe mode looks as good as normal

i was thinking maybe it was a driver issue as i am also not able to play video files in full screen, all of them get stuck... but they play fine if played in the defualt window size, could this also be related to the changes in the new kernel or should i file a new bug report.

also in have not been able to turn on desktop effects since i moved to lucid beta.
