Hi All,
First post here...
I've been using ubuntu on my Acer Travelmate 2310 latop for around a
year now using 6.06 presently.
Monday last week I preformed an update and when I went to use my laptop
again I found it's shrunken my screen size - I've taken a pic of it:

It's acting like the black areas don't exist when I try to move the
mouse pointer over it.
I was made aware that there was an issue with with this update so went
over to ubuntu forums to try and sort it out - they have released an
update to fix any issues but after the update my system is still broke.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
xserver-xorg-core is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Basically I've got no idea where to start - is there any way to roll
back an update?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

btw got a few more foibles to sort out on my system but I'll get this
one out of the way first
start with monitor type / refresh rate and screen resolution ..

I suggest you wind the refresh rate back a bit .. see if that sorts it ..
good luck
