Hi,
sounds like an issue with your graphic card drivers, did you install proprietary drivers for your graphic card or do you use open source drivers? If so, try to install the proprietary ones.

A couple of reboots after after creating this thread I checked Menu> System> Additional Drivers to see the following:

Querying this in #xubuntu on Freenode I learned that there is a known bug that drivers will be in use although this applet may report otherwise.
On activating the other driver, reactivating the original 'current version', and rebooting, lspci -k outputs:
Code:

Kernel modules: i2c-i801

Kernel driver in use: nvidia
Kernel modules: nvidia-current, nvidia-173, nouveau, nvidiafb
You are using both the proprietary and FOSS drivers. Remove the FOSS
drivers (nouveau) and use only the nVidia supplied drivers.
