Thread: 11.04 upgrade with video issues
good day,
did go through different posts have not found particular issue.
have spent 2 days trying figure out, admittedly newbie still.
ok
went ubuntu v9.x 10 11.04 in 1 shot. v9 stable no issues year.
after upgrading loaded fine had different desktop (with side bar on left , fav icons in there, called 'launcher'). when left laptop idle few minutes screen go white,froze , have reboot, after few reboots original desktop loaded (without intervention on part!?). fine since prefer gnome (2.32.1) ever loading before. checked , still running v11.04 issue cannot have windows full screen if stretch them more 4x5 inch windows content disappear , screens goes white if resize 4x5" content reappear? not happen after boot works fine while full size windows (of content; browser, video player etc, doesn't seem if open document) , open window , issue manifest itself.
example upload attachment here had resize pop-up 'search file' window tiny 3x4 size. attachment driver screen shot, nvidia driver highlighted 1 worked in ubuntu v9.x note says driver activated not in use, , have no option put 'in use' option remove it.
tried removing , re-installing got same mssg. tried loading nvidia v173 have same issue.
every time reboot gnome desktop fine still don't understand how switched launcher desktop beloved gnome desktop?
