I have installed on a BIOSTAR 68S+ Motherboard with NVIDIA MCP61-mcp61-86 video adapter. CPU AMD 9100e 1.8ghz The install went flawlessly. I experienced sudden change in screen output to diagonal zigzag lines the color of the previous displayed items. seems random to this user. occurs while sitting on home screen, or while using software, teases you into thinking its going to be ok, then not.
I ran several hardware test programs for video, memory and cpu. no errors in hours of operation.
I thought it was a problem with ubuntu drivers so I installed a different linux package, untangle. it did the same video zizag which could not be recovered. I wonder if similar debian base software issue, I want the UBUNTU do I need a different MoBo? I am not savvy enough to change drivers if that is the issue. any suggestions?

driver or it doesn't and apparently the latter is true. Even so I would try with a lighter Ubuntu variant like Lubuntu.
