Personally, I would hold off on 9.10 and stay with 9.04. There have been a lot of reports of this sort of problem with 9.10 and until I am convinced they are resolved I would suggest the old adage of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" is applicable here. I have had VERY good results with 9.04 on a wide variety of hardware, and have heard of VERY few problems with it. Though I haven't personally tried 9.10 yet (I might in a virtual machine), I have heard a lot of complaints about it breaking systems that worked previously.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
