[00:40] <Stefan1987> Is there any way I can access graphic card settings on my ubuntu mate? No proprietary drivers are available for my card anymore (AMD Radeon HD5750)?
[00:50] <m4t> Stefan1987: which ver of ubuntu?
[00:50] <m4t> and x86_64?
[00:56] <Stefan1987> Ubuntu mate 18.04.1 LTS x64
[00:58] <m4t> what kind of config are you looking for? which settings? i think it's mostly done via xorg.conf parameters
[00:59] <m4t> that's for the open source "radeon" xorg driver. if youre using that you should be able to do basic stuff at System->Hardware->Displays
[01:01] <m4t> you can 'man radeon' for other more advanced config options
[01:02] <Stefan1987> I'm looking for the types of settings similar to those in windows version of catalyst control centre. I wish I could set up my graphic card for performance rather than quality to improve gaming.
[01:04] <m4t> i dont thnk it has anything like that gui
[01:04] <m4t> https://www.x.org/archive/current/doc/man/man4/radeon.4.xhtml
[01:06] <Stefan1987> That's fine. I just wanna tweak the settings to gain little more fps in Counter Strike Global Offensive...if possible
[01:08] <Stefan1987> Thanks a lot for your help, m4t
[01:08] <m4t> yeah sorry i couldn't be more help, i use nvidia proprietary
[01:08] <m4t> last i used my thinkpad t42p was like ubuntu 12.04. that had an old radeon embedded
[01:09] <m4t> you have "linux-firmware" package installed?
[01:09] <Stefan1987> I don't know. How can I check if I have linux-firmware installed?
[01:10] <m4t> dpkg -l linux-firmware
[01:10] <m4t> if it doesn't say "dpkg-query: no packages found matching linux-firmware" you have it
[01:11] <Stefan1987> https://thepasteb.in/p/3lh7lWmL4XYT1
[01:12] <m4t> yep
[01:15] <Stefan1987> I'm new to linux. Can you maybe recommend me some terminal commands to tweak my graphic card for better performance in games?
[01:16] <m4t> no sorry
[01:16] <m4t> i dunno of any tweaks for radeon besides the documentation i listed
[01:17] <Stefan1987> alright, I'll take a deeper look into the documentation you sent me and will try to figure out some solution
[01:18] <m4t> theres probably guides out there
[01:18] <m4t> there might not be much to tweak though :/
[01:19] <m4t> besides reducing resolution and e.g. antialiasing in games
[01:19] <m4t> you could try #radeon
[01:19] <m4t> im sure someone there knows
[01:20] <m4t> just let them know your graphics card model, ubuntu release, arch, etc.
[01:20] <Stefan1987> Alright. Thanks a lot :)
[01:26] <Stefan1987> At #radeon I get the message "==Cannot send to channel' when I try to send a message
[01:33] <m4t> you might need to register on freenode
[01:33] <m4t>  /msg nickserv help
[01:33] <m4t> due to spam a lot of channels have restricted messages to only registered users
[09:56] <Guest54623> hello friends
[11:52] <gigi> Hi, guys!
[12:01] <SergioEDuran1> Hi friends any news about 18.04.1 for Raspberry pi?
[15:39] <Fretegi> morning folks
[15:40] <Fretegi> quick question, anyone know when the upgrade process will be available to upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04?
[15:40] <Fretegi> via the "do-release-upgrade" method that is
[15:41] <Fretegi> or is it such a big deal to force it with the -d switch?  just never upgraded this way before and dont wanna have to circle back and undo things if i can avoid it
[18:07] <phanner98> Just downloaded the 18.04.1 iso and installed mate on a fairly new HP Notebook. On boot, the computer was throwing off a ton of pcieport AER messages. I did some research and disabled the handler of AER altogether using “pci=noaer” on boot. Is this the correct course of action? Safe to have done?!
[18:13] <sixwheeledbeast> Well you certainly don't want those error messages being written to the logs over and over.
