This is the first time I noticed this with Natty but not with earlier Ubuntu versions. There was that 'flicker' on the screen that is usually a sign your refresh rate needs to be adjusted. I went to 'Monitors' and had several 'refresh rate' choices for the resolution being used. Tried a couple other refresh rates and the flicker went away but on a couple the letter texts on the monitor screen became blurry making me think I needed glasses! This never happened before when changing refresh rates or screen resolutons.

I had to experiment till finding a refresh rate that was clear and didn't flicker, which causes eye strain. All looks fine now.

The question is does anyone know why the screen lettering goes blurry and fuzzy on some refresh rates?
