guacamoleanywhere @hateball13:45
guacamoleinstagram youtube,any website, and even when i download video13:46
hateballguacamole: What system specs do you have? If this is an older lower power machine, high definition will be a heavy task to decode13:46
guacamolewhats specs means ? i have a dell inspiron mini, if that ok13:46
hateballguacamole: Do you have an exact model?13:47
hateballguacamole: What type of CPU? You can check with "lscpu"13:47
hateballAlso how much RAM, you can check with "free -m"13:47
guacamolei dont understand ok i copy and paste ok13:47
guacamolehttps://thepasteb.in/p/X6hBKpP4JKPi313:48
guacamolehttps://thepasteb.in/p/JZhpw0WBGlRSg13:48
guacamolethere my friend13:48
guacamoleany idea?13:50
hateballWell, that thing seems to not want to load13:52
hateballor at least incredibly slow13:52
guacamoleyeah man no good. and i try installing adobe flash and disable accelerator13:53
hateballyeah, pretty low specs on your machine guacamole. for youtube, does it work if you pick a lower quality?13:53
hateballeven 720p is probably too heavy13:53
guacamolenot even 144p very bad13:53
guacamoleit just sounds like a robot voice freezing13:53
guacamoleand video slow13:53
guacamolefunny in the beggining when i just installed lubuntu it used to work, idk why now doesnt work13:54
guacamolebut it used to freeze chromium as usual13:54
guacamoleand mouse too freezing13:55
hateballhmmm, mouse just freezing when you're doing nothing special? maybe your hard drive is not feeling so well13:55
guacamoleyeah nothing special man, just freezes after reboot13:55
hateballguacamole: it could also be a problem with the GPU driver I guess13:56
guacamolei like to install tools u see...i like to install stuff so i can learn, ruby for example, i installed so i could learn, u think that can be a issue?13:56
guacamolewhats gpu drive13:56
hateballguacamole: no having things installed should not be a problem as long as they are not running and using up system resources13:57
hateballguacamole: you can run "lspci -k|grep -A 3 VGA"13:57
hateballSometimes there are bugs in the video drivers13:57
guacamolehm..i see..13:58
guacamolehttps://thepasteb.in/p/2RhK3n20zr2h413:58
guacamolei copy there13:58
guacamolei dont understand a lot man, i need more study13:58
hateballguacamole: And it could be that it worked well on install, then you get a kernel update which has a regression13:58
hateballIt is not uncommon13:58
guacamolei understand...13:59
guacamolemaybe that what happened, u think i should press upgrade dist?13:59
hateballguacamole: what version are you running now?14:00
guacamoleidk man14:01
hateballguacamole: cat /etc/issue14:01
guacamoleUbuntu 16.04.3 LTS \n \l14:01

guacamolestill trying to fix14:28
guacamolefollow this now https://askubuntu.com/questions/166224/how-do-i-install-the-intel-graphics-driver-in-my-system14:28
hateballguacamole: the proper drivers should already be installed14:29
hateballguacamole: for 16.04 if you want later mesa, you can use oibaf ppa14:30
guacamoleyes but when i did the file no config was there, it was just blank14:30
hateballguacamole: how exactly did you try to make your xorg.conf ?14:31
guacamolelike the way u send me on askubuntu14:31
guacamolewith gedit14:31
guacamoleand gksudo before the /etc14:32
hateballguacamole: Well you need root permissions to write into... ok then14:32
hateball"gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" should work14:32
guacamoleyes that was the way but nothing happend14:32
guacamolei reboot system twice14:32
guacamoleand still video freezin without sync of audio14:33
hateballwell you can try using nano in a terminal also, just "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf"14:33
hateballand then paste in that section (ctrl+shift+v to paste in terminal"14:33
hateballctrl+x to save and exit14:33
guacamoleDevice"14:34
guacamole            Identifier "Intel Graphics"14:34
guacamole            Driver "intel"14:34
guacamole            Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"14:34
guacamoleEndSection14:34
guacamolei did it14:34
hateballJust remember that if your system fails to start X after you will need to switch into a tty (ctrl+alt+f1) and sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf14:35
guacamolemy thanks my friend14:36

wxllspci -nnk will give you all sorts of information, including about the driver15:12
guacamolei copy and paste here wait my friend15:12
hateballguacamole: this is it https://thepasteb.in/p/2RhK3n20zr2h415:13
wxldon't paste here15:13
wxlthat pastebin works15:13
guacamoleoh ok15:13
wxlgma500 wth is that XD15:13
guacamoleold school15:13
guacamoleha!15:13
wxlthis is old but says driver support is poor https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/7015:14
guacamolebut as i talked to hateball, when i installed lubuntu everything worked fine, some issues remained like system freeze or mouse freeze15:14
wxlof course that's super old but XD15:14
guacamolei see so i should not upgrade15:15
wxlhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo15:15
wxlthat suggests the lack of hardware accelerated video playback makes it act poorly with video15:15
wxlyou could  use mplayer to solve the issue, but you'd have to download stuff15:16
guacamoleok sound good to me man15:16
guacamoleanything to solve stuff15:16
guacamoleim in the past 3 months trying to learn ruby with youtube but no good15:17
hateballPersonally I would try and save up some money and get a newer hardware15:17
guacamolebecause of this delay15:17
hateballThat thing has seen its prime15:17
guacamoleoh that sounds even better hateball, which one u suggest15:17
guacamolethanks wxl15:18
guacamolei try to fix stuff too15:18
guacamolethanks for the time my friends15:18
wxlthis person's looking for help too https://askubuntu.com/questions/469427/choppy-video-playback-with-intel-gma-500-chipset15:19
wxltl;dr this is kind of How It Is™ fot that chip15:19
hateballguacamole: Anything you can afford really, that is celeron or up15:19
guacamolethe first link u send wxl no packages can be found for download15:19
guacamolethx15:19
hateballKeeping old hardware alive is good and all but sometimes we have to accept defeat :)15:20
wxlif you read what i sent you will see that i mentioned something on the page, not as an instruction of what to do15:20
wxlalthough the fact that there have been ppas out there may mean searching for a ppa might find you alternatives15:20
guacamoleyes im reading hardware support wxl. and yes hateball this old dell is from 200715:20
guacamoleits a grandma15:20
guacamolein 10 years a lot have changed15:21
guacamolethats cool to see15:21
guacamolebut as u say, defeated15:21
guacamoleha!15:21
guacamolewxl the ppas are unchecked here, they gave me a big head pain in the past because of error messages15:22
wxlppas are not supported by anyone except their owners15:22
wxlso you need to decide on whether or not you will add a ppa based on research that will help you decide whether or not to trust them15:23
guacamoleoh...i see...15:23
guacamolechoppy thats a good word for what happening15:30
guacamoleoh nice gotta try this ill be back guys thx15:35

ibmr50eGuys! I tried to make my grub2 BEAUTIFUL by editing it with grub-customizer. I wanted to add Kanye West background image. It didn't work, now my grub2 is UGLY and has basic colors and fonts and I can't reverse it.. How to make it BEAUTIFUL or at least NORMAL again? Thank you!19:19
Guest__How can i use Huawai mobile modem on Lubuntu ? Will it work without install anything ?22:07
ibmr50ewhat was the apt-get command to install ubuntu software manager?22:19
ibmr50ehow to launch some directory from terminal using this pcman?22:36
krytarik"pcmanfm <directory> &"22:37
ibmr50ewhat does & do?22:39
ibmr50ewow i did sudo pcmanfm and finally can delete things22:40
ibmr50ei had useless things in /boot/grub thank you22:40
krytarik!sudo22:41
ubottusudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo22:41
ibmr50eye i know22:42
krytarikAlso, '&' sends the process to the background.22:42
ibmr50eso terminal won't stay open stupidly?22:43
ibmr50ecool cool22:44
