ttr1mm3rrI used xubuntu and loved it a year or so ago, and one of the things that I remember most fondly was the document viewer, that handled "all" sorts of files - pdf,epub etc, even cbr iirc03:37
ttr1mm3rrso what is that program?03:37
ttr1mm3rrand is there alot of plugins involved, or does this program "just do it all"?03:38

* rfleming usually has that problem after one too many 'beverages'03:53
insidious?03:53
rflemingcan you paste an image?03:53
insidiousit dont capture it... my idea is a driver issue.03:54
insidiousits like fuzzy03:54
insidiousNever had this issue with Fedora or Debian on install.03:54
rflemingwhat base driver?03:54
insidiousJust happens with this os03:55
insidiousthis is my laptop model  Dell Latituted e641003:55
rfleminginsidious, even with the livecd?03:55
insidiousyes03:55
rfleminginsidious, can you change the resolution?03:56
insidiouswhen moving tabs or applications or veiwing/scrolling on webpages the black lines appear03:56
rfleminginsidious, like this? http://s562.photobucket.com/user/racecourseambyth/media/Linux%20screen%20problem/2013-03-12070111.jpg.html03:57

rflemingoh, and lspci04:00

rfleminginsidious, you can probably fix this by installing the nvidia proprietary drivers04:04
rflemingalthough there may be a kernel/driver problem with your adapter being 'old'04:05
insidiousHow could i do this... do you know the command?04:05
rflemingif you go to Settings -> Additional Drivers04:05
rflemingyou can then select 'Using NVIDIA binary driver' instead of Using X.Org X server04:06
rflemingcheck to see if your adapter uses the current binary, or the legacy binary04:06
insidiousim not too good with hardware how can i search it to see if its binary?04:07
rflemingI just did the search on the NVIDIA website04:08
rfleminghttp://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/95165/en-us04:08
rfleminglooks like 340.96 is the last version04:08
rflemingso under Additional Drivers, you'll pick 'Using NVIDIA binary driver - version 340.96 from nvidia-340 (proprietary)04:09
rfleminginsidious, I just happen to have a Lenovo T510 that uses this exact same GPU :)04:10
insidiousi dont see that one04:10
insidiousyou mentioned in the list.04:10
rflemingwhat options do you see?04:10
rflemingcan you paste an image?04:10
insidiousoh i found it04:11
insidiousone was tested04:11
insidiouswhy it confused me04:11
insidiousDo i need to perform a reboot/04:11
insidious?04:11
rflemingI think so04:12
insidiousok thanks for help ill try to reboot see if it fixes04:12
rflemingat least a restart of lightdm04:12
