[HLUG] Ubuntu Mate

[Julian Robbins]

Hi Tim

I have seen something like this before, I think its related to your monior
and graphics card. Have you tried powering down your monior completely and
then restartuing ?

Otherwise it may be a different graphics driver having an effect ie 2d open
source instead on 3d proprietry driver
