My screen will randomly go black for about 2 seconds and then come back on with horizontal lines over everything. Sometimes I can see my work in the background but it's all scrambled. The mouse pointer stays on top and I can click on things in the background but the buttons I try to click on are mixed together, overlapping each other or stretched across the screen so I can't tell which button I am clicking. If I use keyboard short cuts such as Alt-Tab to change what is on the screen, the distortion will usually partially clear up. After switching between programs about two or three times, all that is left is a couple of lines at the top of the screen which eventually disappear. The first time this happened to me, I had booted from a flashdrive but after installing Ubuntu to my harddrive, it's still happening. I am usually using firefox at the time it happens but I have seen it happen to my desktop with nothing running. I see it happen randomly about once/hr. I have noticed that all the buttons and links on the screen become unresponsive a few seconds before it turns off ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: xorg 1:7.7+7ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-22.27-generic 4.2.6 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-22-generic i686 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu5 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Jan 3 22:58:39 2016 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: wily DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2772] (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:01ad] Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:01ad] InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-12-20 (14 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release i386 (20151021) MachineType: Dell Inc.
