Refresh problems in Blender.

Hello.
I upgraded Ubuntu to Jaunty and now Blender isn't working. It starts okay but the screen doesn't refresh when I use the modeling window.

What is the problem??

Bit hard to figure out what's wrong with the information you have supplied, or their lack of. However, have you tried upgrading blender since you upgraded ubuntu? Might be some driver or some interpreter changed slightly and it's not using the x11 display properly... or just a python script that became broken during an upgrade... very hard to tell. Might be worth just re-installing blender if it's been left fairly clean/unmodified.

I think I might be having a similar issue in Jaunty. Blender launches fine, but the screen doesn't refresh causing streaking in the windows and even after exiting blender, I need to move other windows around the desktop to clear off the Blender graphics.

This is on a Dell Latitude D630 with the Intel GM965 Express video.

Any insight is appreciated.

When I installed I just installed the nvidia drivers and control panel out of the repository and it was fine then
