Ok, something good.

I don't know why Gutsy insisted in forcing the Vesa driver instead of
the neomagic...

Changing it on my /etc/X11/xorg.conf it worked better... at least the
color is no longer purple.

I'll keep testing it for a while and try to recreate the other nonsense
that appeared when vesa was selelcted.

In time, the edges are also correct, which means the issues were all
related to vesa driver with neomagic chipset.

Ubuntu was able to detect this correctly before? Or vesa used to work so
much better I never realized I wasn't using the designated correct
binary?

Also good news, it is sensibly faster (drawing, moving windows,
maximizing, minimizing)... and it's much brighter then in Feisty

I still have to wait for the ACPI lava lamp to kick in or not.

(by the way, it never happened in the login screen, only if I have
already logged on)
