[00:15] <agaida> shouldn't be slow - maybe https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI helps
[00:17] <agaida> other than that make sure that cpu boost is available (if supported in bios), give the maximum amount of RAM to bios too, disable cool & quit - thats what i would do/try first
[00:20] <ken_> ok thanks i will take a look. In general though, would it be a good idea everything else being equal, to get an intel graphics laptop for Linux?  Better supported?
[00:21] <agaida> you will not learn as much as with a AMD Laptop :P
[00:23] <agaida> i bought the cheapest possible Lenovo Flex II three years ago and i was (and still be) surprised how fast this little thing is
[00:24] <ken_> yeah, mine is not fast. Quite often, I would type something and it's a half a second or more before it shows up on screen.
[00:24] <ken_> it's even slower in Firefox....
[00:24] <agaida> tune your hard drive or buy an SSD
[00:26] <agaida> no joke - i put a current drive into my HP Studio from 2009 - and it feels like a brand new Laptop - so the only hint i can give is - put away rotational devices
[00:26] <ken_> this netbook i am using would barely sell for $60, so putting a $150 SSD it in would be a waste.
[00:27] <agaida> :P
[00:27] <ken_> I would just spend $200 on a used laptop instead.  :)
[00:27] <agaida> same problem - most used laptops for $200 have no ssd
[00:28] <agaida> and SSDs speed up even outdated things like that one: http://pb.5id.eu/24ik
[00:29] <ken_> yes i have a Windows laptop that has SSD and it's much faster than my other Windowss laptop with a HDD
[00:30] <ken_> but with this Linux laptop I am using now....I think it's more than just an hard drive problem
[00:30] <ken_> i will look into the graphics card thing u sent
[00:31] <agaida> if no important data are on this thing - i would speed up the hard drive first
[00:31] <agaida> should give a boost of approx. 30-40% in application loading
[00:32] <agaida> second i would use every help i could get from the repository - aka pre-load, uber-readahead and so on
[00:33] <agaida> next thing - even with little ram i would use tmpfs as far as possible
[00:34] <agaida> and then try to tune the graphics, trying compton with glx backend and such things - and squeeze everything performancewise out of the graphics card - a HD6xxxM should be fast
[00:36] <agaida> but to be true - buying a decent used machine and a cheap SSD is the better idea
[00:41] <agaida> and regarding your sound problem - try to set the azalia card as default, should be sufficient to solve your sound problem
