[Jaime de Paula]

Hi there!
My name is Jaime de Paula and I write from Brazil.
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and have a GeForce 7025/ nForce 630a NVIDIA video
card motherboard integrated. When I use Ubuntu with the Unity window
manager and the NVIDIA legacy binary driver - version 304.137 (open source)
the screen have some long delays and lots of freezes screen that are often
unrecoverable. If I choose Nouveau display driver the performance is much
better (everything works fast), but after some minutes the screen freezes
and I have to reset the computer manually.
Could you tell me if there's a solution for me? Could I have an older
driver (because it used to be great until Ubuntu 12.04)? For now I can't
pay for another video card.
If I choose to work with another window manager (Enlightenment, Cinnamon,
etc...) it works perfectly, and so I guess it's an incompatibility between
Unity and my video card. But Unity is better for me.

I have an AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 250 Processor × 2 (3,0 Ghz - 64 bits)
4 GB RAM memory
Asus Motherboard M4N68T-M LE
Chipset GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a
1 TeraByte SATA HD

In advance thank you!
Jaime de Paula
