I need to post a correction. I was mistaken about the XPS 410n, it does only come with nVidia graphics, not Intel as I believed.

As for the Inspiron 530n, Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty doesn't have drivers for the Intel 82G33/G31 Express Intel Graphics Controller that is available in that system with Windows; so for the current product offering with Feisty we had to restrict (meaning not sell) that controller when sold with Ubuntu; Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy is expected to have those drivers. We'll revisit the list of supportable hardware if/when we announce plans to deliver Gutsy.

I apologize for the confusion my earlier comment caused.
