The problem started at opening. Log-in to Ubuntu and there it is. Return from terminal or application, where the screen is normal, and there it is, or rather, there it was.
The "red scan type artifact", which covered the entire screen, has changed. The video problem now presents differently. I had sent in a screen shot of the artifact earlier, but that isn't the video artifact that shows up when I log in on my (now) secondary drive (drive "sdb"). I went into the system chassis yesterday and pulled the Nvidia GeForce7300 video card out completely and connected my monitor to the motherboard VGA connector. The video artifacts that I was seeing when I logged into my primary drive, drive "sda", haven't changed, but the artifacts as displayed when logging into sdb have. I've attached screenshots of the "new" artifacts. I've not looked at the open source to see what might differentiate the video data flow when there's a video card installed versus what happens with the mb video circuit.
