I would also like to thank you and report everything working OK.
My system is a DELL E6510 with updated Kubuntu 11.04
Running the suggested Kernel from #185 solved the problem for me.

External Monitors are working too as they did with former versions of
Kubuntu.

My system is connected to a DELL docking station.
Internal LCD is @ eDP1 ->
external Monitor via DVI is @HDMI3

No problems during Kernel installation.
Desktop Effects also working -> but at poor performance.

Overall it is a huge step into the right direction -> thank all of you for
your great work making linux useful :)
regards
Chewie
