  • Can you take a screenshot and upload it somewhere and then edit your post with a link to that screenshot? I know you can't post pictures here yet, but having a screenshot as to what the graphics look like would help a lot, as there can be any number of issue related to graphics. Also, when you say the graphics are not pleasing to look at, what do you mean? Are they corrupted/glitchy or just low resolution? – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 15:12
  • @RPiAwesomeness yes,it's low resiluation prob – SSR.P.S.das Jan 27 '15 at 15:20
  • Okay. This is pretty common issue. Can you run lspci | grep VGA and edit your question with the result of that? It would help us a lot. – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 15:28
  • Command's result:- 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03) – SSR.P.S.das Jan 27 '15 at 15:32
  • Try running sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel and tell me what happens. – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 15:38
  • some pkg removed and some installed but seems no changes in graphics – SSR.P.S.das Jan 27 '15 at 16:03
  • Did you reboot? Try rebooting and see how the graphics are doing. – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 16:04
  • it's look good after installing but mouse double-click is gone.i have to do it using left button.any suggetion why it is so? – SSR.P.S.das Jan 27 '15 at 16:38
  • Hmm. That's strange, and I don't think that's something that installing new graphics drivers would cause. Try going into System Settings, then Mouse & Trackpad, and seeing if any of the settings are off. – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 17:09
  • no. every thing is On. – SSR.P.S.das Jan 27 '15 at 17:40
  • I think that might be a separate question then, you can mark this one as answered and make a new one. Have you installed any other software recently? Also, try moving the double-click slider back and forth and test it out and see if that helps any. – RPiAwesomeness Jan 27 '15 at 17:51

We resolved this issue in the comments, turns out all the OP needed to do was install the Intel Xorg drivers via sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel.

However, with the reboot the OP's double-click is messed up, so that's still be resolved (most likely will require a new question).
