Provide some more information; hardware specs, particularly video card and drivers (if known). Does the problem only occur in dialog boxes? Perhaps let us see a screenshot.

oldos2er,

I don't see what difference that would make,since I have the same configuration on Lubuntu 14.04 LTS and there (here) I do not have the problem !
The blur images are everywhere : In dialog boxes, everywhere that I try to type in information or choose from a menu list .

I have loaded Lubuntu 15.10 with Netbootin on a USB stick, and installed it from that stick .

Regards, Hankbonk .

What's your difficulty in providing the information requested? Things aren't necessarily the same in 14.04 and 15.10. For example, the kernels are different. Newer kernels may not play nice with older hardware.

Blurred as bad as this image?:

If so it's this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1507255

I'm personally just sticking with 14.04 (Trusty) in hopes we can get that sorted out by the time it reaches EOL - April 2017 in the case of Lubuntu. But others have tried a workaround as shown in comment #5 of that bug report with some success.

Thanks kansasnoob, that's it !

I will stay in 14.04 LTS, untill the new version is out of bugs or there is a fix for that bug !!!

I will close this thread now .
