Here is your answer: link it is a bug and you need to install mesa manually – Kamil Apr 17 '12 at 09:18
I think it also has something to do with being online. My laptop has Intel graphics but it was initially listed as unknown graphics under System Info. However, after running updates one day the graphics were noticeably more responsive and were also listed correctly under System Info. – Nov 15 '11 at 12:27
OK maybe it will be added after some updated – Mika A. Nov 15 '11 at 13:04
yeah may be also mine wasnt detected in the LIVE version be it from cd or liveusb, after installation it shows up – sarvesh.lad Nov 15 '11 at 18:06

Go to the intel linux webpage : https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads

Get the Intel(R) Graphics Installer for Linux* 1.0.x and install the package. Once installed, run sudo intel-linux-graphics-installer and follow the steps of the graphical installer
