[Bug 373757] [NEW] General display bug, not only in yelp

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: yelp

I've freshly installed Ubuntu 9.04 from the live-cd.

The place where my mouse was after logging in didn't have a proper
background. The mouse cursor was surrounded by a black square.

Next to that, when I'm walking around with my mouse in the menu (pull-
down the system menu), moving with my mouse leaves unwanted blocks
visible.

Additional, opening any program (for example the help program) don't let
the top-bar visible (with the buttons to resize or close the program).
Also, most buttons in popup-windows are not visible.

Opening the terminal leaves a complete blank rectangle where normally a
terminal window would be. There's nothing readable. I can type blind the
word "exit" and press enter to leave the terminal, but nothing is
visible of what I'm doing.

The display chip of this computer is an Intel 82815.

Ubuntu 8.04 and Ubuntu 8.10 didn't have these problems on this system
with this display chip.

I'd like to go back to 8.10 because this worked perfectly, but I'd also
like to move on to 9.04, hoping that this problem will be solved.

Thanks for reading.

If someone else has already reported this problem, I'm sorry. I haven't
found this with google as a search machine.


I'm sorry if the chosen package is wrong. This system wasn't able to
choose the radiobutton "I don't know"...
