FakeBoost | Hello, I have an AMD athlon pc with 1545MB Ram, and Lubuntu 14.04 in it, and it's laggy, it's slow... | 00:37 |
FakeBoost | Is there something i can do to make it faster? | 00:37 |
ianorlin | that should be enough ram do you have lots of tihngs open like how many tabs in webbrowser or running at 100% cpu the whole time | 00:46 |
FakeBoost | dont have lots of things open | 00:46 |
FakeBoost | it's slow even for typing | 00:47 |
FakeBoost | it has a delay | 00:47 |
FakeBoost | and scrolling too... | 00:47 |
ianorlin | what kind of graphics? | 00:47 |
FakeBoost | card? | 00:47 |
ianorlin | yes graphics card? | 00:47 |
FakeBoost | It's a geforce... | 00:47 |
FakeBoost | geforce mx440 | 00:48 |
FakeBoost | ianorlin? | 00:50 |
FakeBoost | I thinks it's a 32mb card. | 00:51 |

tuxmax | vga compatible controller : nvidia corporation nv18 (geforce 4 mx 4000) problem video the floder in browser hide and appear | 01:20 |
ianorlin | Fakeboost I don't personally have one of those cards but I read this http://askubuntu.com/questions/375696/nvidia-geforce4-mx-420-13-10/395431#395431 | 01:32 |
FakeBoost | Checked that, but it is a ubuntu thread... | 01:58 |
FakeBoost | Not lubuntu, the supposed lightweight one... | 01:58 |
FakeBoost | ianorlin | 01:58 |
ianorlin | yes but it is still shared driver | 02:00 |
FakeBoost | ok... | 02:01 |
FakeBoost | what i see in that thread is that there is no solution. | 02:01 |
ianorlin | no the grub noveau.noaccel=1 in teh command would turn off a problem with accelratoin on video card | 02:04 |
FakeBoost | " | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | 02:05 | |
FakeBoost | I had trouble with the same type of system. What finally got me working was to disable the acceleration support in the nouveau driver. Via sudo, I edited /etc/defaults/grub so that: | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | Became: | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nouveau.noaccel=1" | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | And then: | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | sudo update-grub | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | I restarted the machine, and the graphics issues were resolved. Admittedly, I'm disabling the acceleration support - but I'd rather have slow correct graphics than fast incorrect ones." | 02:05 |
FakeBoost | What does that mean? | 02:05 |
ianorlin | it means that it won't be superfast but that it could be better if it is using all of your cpu which would make it slow | 02:06 |
FakeBoost | ok, so i just go for it... | 02:07 |
FakeBoost | I will try it now. | 02:07 |
FakeBoost | ianorlin, i modified the line, but when i try to save the file, it says permission denied (via notepad) and the same goes with the command cat > grub... | 02:22 |
FakeBoost | And I ran it with sudo... | 02:23 |
ianorlin | Fakeboost why not sudo nano | 02:24 |
FakeBoost | sorry | 02:24 |
FakeBoost | just did it, i ran sudo and leafpad and got it... | 02:24 |
FakeBoost | rebooting now... | 02:25 |
FakeBoost | Well, it seems the slow thing in this machine is the internet browsing... | 02:32 |
ianorlin | I can't really make your network faster | 02:34 |
FakeBoost | haha | 02:35 |
FakeBoost | maybe you know something about this: | 02:35 |
FakeBoost | you know when you iwconfig... | 02:35 |
FakeBoost | you get signal strength in dbm... | 02:35 |
FakeBoost | Well in this machine i get it in n/100 | 02:36 |
FakeBoost | It is awckward. | 02:36 |

MaxFrames | hello | 10:07 |
MaxFrames | lubuntu 14.04: the lock screen button on the close session dialog screen does nothing. why, and how to fix? | 10:08 |
bollo_ | ah crap now I cannot login to lxqt in either 13.10 or 14.04 | 13:33 |
bollo_ | before only 14.04 kicked me right back to lightdm | 13:34 |
holstein | bollo_: i make certain my password and account is working in TTY, then, i try other accounts, such as guest, to make sure the user account is not breaking the config for something | 13:40 |
bollo_ | holstein: login i fine | 13:40 |
holstein | bollo_: you have a PPA added? | 13:41 |
bollo_ | holstein: I can login to openbox and start lxqt from there | 13:41 |
bollo_ | holstein: yeah lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-daily | 13:41 |
holstein | bollo_: ok.. that sounds like an acceptable work-around for development releases | 13:41 |
bollo_ | holstein: yep :) | 13:41 |
bollo_ | just curious if anyone had an idea about the issue | 13:42 |
holstein | bollo_: maybe the maintainer of the packages you are using | 13:42 |
bollo_ | I'll just have to wait I guess | 13:49 |
bollo_ | I've seen other people in here with the same issue | 13:49 |
bollo_ | I'll play around with siduction lxqt for now :) | 13:50 |
holstein | bollo_: you see other people with the same unsupported packages added? having issues? | 13:51 |
holstein | bollo_: there should be a way to report those bugs and issues to the developers | 13:51 |
bollo_ | holstein: Yeah maybe a week ago someone brought it up in here | 13:51 |
randi | Hi, can I replace Tools>Open Folder As root with similar ? Ty | 21:35 |
randi | i mean can I simulate the old command that was in 13.10 | 21:36 |
randi | am running 14.04 on flashstik, so permission issues come up a lot when copying and deleting from local hard drives and other flashdrives | 21:40 |
randi | open folder as root was handy for that | 21:41 |
krytarik | randi: See here: http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/p/actions_24.html | 21:58 |
