    Kernel reinstall causes graphics to mess up

    I had to reinstall the kernel (2.6.28-15-generic, Jaunty) in order to fix my wireless configuration, which was messed up.

    When I did so, the wireless was fixed but now the display is all wrong. Everything is slightly out of focus and larger in size. Also, when I go to system --> preferences --> display, it says that my monitor is unknown, and won't allow me to change the display resolution, etc.

    I have an Intel Corp Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller. I run an IBM/lenovo X41 thinkpad with an Intel Centrino processor.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
