I think I've read that most Intel chips don't work with OpenGL.  In any case, mine certainly doesn't.

I'm using the latest intel driver that's available for my distro.  There are newer ones available, but it looks like they're for 10.04, which I think I'll wait for until the official release.  I tried the alpha release of 10.04 once, and everything just went horribly wrong lol.
