Hi Christopher,
I tried version 16.04 after following the link below and installing
xenial-desktop-i386.iso on a memory stick. The first try, it didn't recognize
my screen so I re-installed it and tried again. It worked fine, but Firefox
seemed to have a few bugs as it would not load a script and so I ended up
re-starting it because I couldn't get it to respond. Then it worked fine until
it went to black and white. The B&W mode almost seemed like a power saving
feature and the screen would go back to colour once in a while. As I am
writing this, I am back to v15.1.
I don't know how you would like this written up or what information you would
like. I can live with the occasional wonky screen if need be as it seems to
self-correct if I switch to another application and then back. Still,
something funny is going on. Perhaps it is a problem with my PC. - I used a
toshiba system check tool and it seemed to indicate everything was okay.
Please let me know if you want me to pursue this further.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Title:
Graphic display problem
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I would like to report a problem with my video driver. While using
both LibreOffice Writer and Firefox, Ihave had occasions when the
screen went wonky with horizontal lines running across such that the
screen was not readable. The problem seems to correct itself if I
switch programs using the Launcher and then return to the problem
application.
I am running 32 bit Ubuntu15.10 on a Toshiba NB200 with a Intel® Atom™
CPU N280 @ 1.66GHz × 2 processer,, 2 gig of RAM and Intel® 945GME
x86/MMX/SSE2 graphics.
Thanks.
Jonathan
