Fritz Hudnut, I think your dist-upgrade to yakkety test is sufficient (i.e. no need to fresh install).
Despite this, I don't quite see what you mean. Could you please attach the image unedited? Launchpad can handle files that are MBs in size. ** Tags removed: needs-picture ** Tags removed: yakkaty ** Tags added: yakkety ** Description changed: - Gents: + The background image and other image files are blotchy. - Another issue I found on my recent install of U-MATE 16.04 PPC on my - Powermac 3,1 . . . had some "kernel certificate" errors on booting the - live DVD, which carried over to the install . . . and using various boot - params actually caused the live session to fail. So, only using "live" - gets me into a nice GUI display. Now in the install, it quickly moves - passed the "kernel cert" error and a couple other errors, and display - from ATI RAGE 128 card for text is very crisp, but the background image - and other image files are blotchy and color changes are not rendered - smoothly . . . ???? - - I had this or a similar issue in a Lubuntu 14.04 live DVD on my iBook G4, text rendered perfectly, but images were blurry and rough . . . . Any thoughts for how this might be fixed? - --- + --- ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: powerpc BootLog: - fsck from util-linux 2.27.1 - /dev/sda13: clean, 182266/1458176 files, 1099215/5826607 blocks + fsck from util-linux 2.27.1 + /dev/sda13: clean, 182266/1458176 files, 1099215/5826607 blocks CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: xenial DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 DistroVariant: ubuntu DpkgLog: - + ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
