As fast as Linux Kernel launches, this happens. It didn't happen on Dapper Drake, but did on newer versions. Can anybody tell me what to do? Download Ubuntu version without GNOME or what? And once I install it directly, it does the same... Incompatibility or what?

I'm thinking your monitor might be incompatible just by looking at the screen. Do you have a model number for the monitor? That might help with finding out the problem. As well, have you ever had anything else installed on there other than linux, like maybe an older version of Windows? That will help me to know your PC's capabilities a bit better, and maybe we (by we I mean most likely one of the geniuses here) can help you figure this out. But like I said, looks like an incompatibility or posssibly a bad monitor.
