All of a sudden, the graphics aren't working on my Ubuntu 13.04 64bit. I ran sudo apt-get upgrade yesterday, and now the launcher and dash transparency don't work. What's odd is that the notifications transparency-blur-thingy does work. Auto-hiding the launcher also gives me weird results. I have some screenshots:

The launcher is not transparent.

Neither is dash.

And that is what the desktop looks like with the launcher on auto-hide.



My hardware is a Gigabyte h61n motherboard with an intel i3 CPU. What's wierd is that System Settings -> Details can't make up it's mind what graphics I have.



the output of lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 vga:



00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0102] (rev 09) Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device [1458:d000] 00:16.0 Communication controller [0780]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 [8086:1c3a] (rev 04) Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device [1458:1c3a]

Sometimes things get broken or lost during updates.



Try these two commands:



sudo apt-get dist-upgrade 


This reruns updates command with some extra features. Read about the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade here.



sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel


This reinstalls the driver if it has been removed for some reason.
