Re: [Bug 687445] Re: The strange white lines appeared on the top of screen

 

@Bryce Harrington - Thank you so much for your suggestion kind sir. As
of 2:38pm I will attempt to bump up my installation of Ubuntu 11.04 to
the new X stack per the instructions you have laid out for me. When I
reboot my system to "get to the new bits," I will follow up with you
to let you know how the upgrade. If I may offer some APPRECIATION, I
wanted to point out that the Ubuntu logo on the splash screen looks
MUCH better than before. It's very clean and has the beautiful
graphical glow that I remember from previews installations of Ubuntu.
Until then take care and make it a great day.
