This bug is still present on Natty. I get the same "BadDrawable" error as described above, using an Intel GMA:
$ lspci|grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
However, installing the latest nightly build from ppa:paxer fixes the problem, i.e. apparently the bug has been fixed upstream. The build I installed is kicad 2011-07-19-testing.
