[02:23] <jack_^> anybody in here using boxee on ubuntu? im trying to get it to run on my girlfriend's laptop but the interface runs like ass :/
[02:24] <jack_^> i think its a driver issue.  its using an intel card
[02:26] <holstein> jack_^: it ran like ass for me
[02:26] <holstein> on an ati card
[02:26] <holstein> and i fiddled with other issues on that card
[02:26] <holstein> i switched to a better supported nividia card
[02:26] <holstein> and installed the freedom-hating driver
[02:26] <holstein> and the other things, and boxee are much better
[02:27] <holstein> jack_^: does compiz run smooth on it?
[02:27] <jack_^> yeah compiz seems to be fine
[02:27] <holstein> hmmm
[02:28] <jack_^> i had this same issue on my nvidia card with nouvaeu but after using the proprietary drivers it worked great
[02:28] <jack_^> im trying to update the package now. this is a livecd im trying to get it working oN :P
[02:28] <holstein> jack_^: yeah, that nvidia card wasnt great with nouveau
[02:28] <holstein> jack_^: it might be better on metal
[02:28] <holstein> but who knows
[02:28] <holstein> probably not that much better
[02:28] <jack_^> heh
[02:29] <holstein> if youve got a gig of ram or so, thats probably similar to metal
[02:29] <jack_^> i have boxee running on 10.04 in my living room. this one is for the bedroom. it was running win7 but i cant stand that crap
[02:29] <jack_^> im only getting 10mbps network transfer between my storage server and the laptop. in ubuntu it jumps to 22mbps
[02:30] <jack_^> not that i _need_ that speed... but ya know
[02:30] <jack_^> it works fine in win7 was the point of that story
[02:30] <jack_^> heh
