Odd, I've built several Ubuntu systems from 7.10 and 8.04 and 8.10 and I've been happy with the speed.  Three of the systems are Mythtv boxes and they do a fine job of HDTV.

Are we talking graphics being too slow?  Does the system have an ATI or NVidia graphics card?

If so you may want to try the ATI or NVidia drivers for your machine.

Google "ubuntu envy script" and read Alberto's page.  Go to synaptic and add the envy script.  Run it.

Good luck.
