Hello, I'm new to these forums, have been browsing around for a while now. I have to say this upgrade is amazing, my wireless now works flawlessly on my hp dv 7 laptop, all except for one problem. I have one or two white dotted lines that flash through my monitor, looks kind of like the lines of an old television set. I refreshed my background, changed wallpapers (nothing too complicated has been tried...) but these didn't help, does anybody know how I would go about fixing this? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks a lot.

I forgot to mention it doesn't happen until linux begins booting up, doesn't happen on my HP startup screen

I have a dv7 also and experienced the same. Solved it by enabling the proprietary video driver.
