the entire window blinks rapidly when I scroll and when pass over tool bar insignas

[jacksons]

Binary package hint: gedit

also the window covers my entire screen and won't let me see anything else unless I ALT+TAB to another window.
it doesn't have a minimize button nor a (un)maximize button.
when I exit the document behind it there is a blank document that doesn't have any buttons on it, so I have to ALT+F4 it to get rid of it.
last thing, when I am using the ALT + TAB to switch windows when I pass over the icon of the document the entire screen goes blank until I pass it by.

information of my Lynux

I don't understand this type of thing and so can't tell you because a friend downloaded everything on this computer that is Lynux.
sorry
