Thank you for reporting this to Ubuntu. Could you please let us know what brand of graphics card you are using? If you are unsure, you can run the following command in a terminal:

lspci | grep VGA

I figured it might be the graphics card, it only started doing this
after the upgrade. I tried installing it from the vendor but it won't
work. I truly love Ubuntu: This is what came up in terminal, and it is
the hardware I installed.

claudia@claudia-desktop:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RS480 [Radeon
Xpress 200G Series]

Thanks for the help.
