Why do you need to install the git driver ? Your hardware should work right out of the box with the default intel driver. – Maxime R. Nov 2 '11 at 4:23

git is a Source Control Management Software, it means that what you get from a git repository is most likely to be intended for developers or bug-trackers. It's not recommended for inexperienced users to tinker with those just yet.

Ubuntu is very competent on finding out the drivers for your system. Intel g41 graphic chipset linux driver is in the package xf86-video-intel. But don't worry, Ubuntu has installed this driver by default.

If you have any trouble with your video card, it may be a hardware problem

Its not a hardware problem beacuse it runs prefectly on windows, and ubuntu has not install the driver by deafult beacuse its not in system info and i cant even configure the effects on my desktop bbeacuse its says i dont have a graphic card. – Melvin Nov 3 '11 at 4:11
