Hi,

If I close my laptop and allow Ubuntu to go into standby, a strange screensaver type effect occurs which will not disable when I return to work on my laptop.

When I took a screen shot, it looks normal - see attached.

The best way to describe the effect, is like vertical lines through text and icons. It makes it look like the rain effect in Windows screen saver.

Yeah I get the same thing too. Those strange vertical lines also appear on shut-down mode as well for me. Everything seems enabled on my acer laptop. Wish I could help:confused:
