Are you using the restricted nvidia driver? I know with previous versions of ubuntu, I have had to make sure that I was using that driver.

If you aren't busy Saturday, you might get some friendly person to help you at the installfest at That Technical Bookstore this Saturday. Closer to 10 is better than closer to 3.

Gentlemen;
I am not a hacker. I point and click and that is about all I really know about computers. I have a problem. I have a COMPAQ Presario V3000 with an AMD Sempron mobile (CPU?) and an nVIDIA graphics card. I am using UBUNTU 8.04 the /Hardy Heron. /I have two problems. 1. When I click on quit, it takes about 1.5 minutes for the screen to come up and the restart and hibernate icons are not present.

2. When I click on a menu item, in any application, the drop down sub menu looks like it is printed on a clear plastic sheet and back ground comes through and I can't read the menu items. Some times the top menu bar is also clear and has a rainbow of lined running horizontally through it.

These problems did not show up until I upgraded to the /Hardy Heron/. I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thank you.

Yes, I am using the restricted driver, as far as I know. Thanks for the invitation on Saturday.
