[08:54] <dsanfab> I have a old laptop (Fujitsu AMILO-La1703), installed Ubuntu Mate 18.04.1 LTS, and didn't detect the graphics card (only 640x480)
[08:55] <dsanfab> lspci | grep VGA

[08:55] <dsanfab> sudo apt install xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
[08:56] <dsanfab> reboot
[08:56] <dsanfab> all seems ok... but, Am I loosing some of the good mate defaults here?
[08:57] <diogenes_> sudo lspci -nnk | grep VGA -A3
[09:02] <dsanfab> https://thepasteb.in/p/JZhpv7z8KrDSg
[09:10] <diogenes_> so you missing the kernel driver
[09:12] <dsanfab> I have to install it (xserver-xorg-video-openchrome)
[09:12] <dsanfab> and I have done it
[09:13] <diogenes_> and everything works?
[09:15] <dsanfab> the resolution is ok
[09:15] <dsanfab> its a bit slugish compared to the previous lts
[09:16] <dsanfab> don't know if it is the openchrome or the new lts
[09:32] <dsanfab> have I any alternative to 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M890CE/K8N890CE [Chrome 9] [1106:3230] (rev 01)

[09:32] <dsanfab> have I any alternative to openchrome? I'm suspecting that is sucking all my cpu.
[09:32] <dsanfab> (sorry for the copy and paste unintended mess)
[09:37] <sixwheeledbeast> check your load averages and processes with top?

[09:40] <dsanfab> +terminal
[09:40] <dsanfab> this is what is running
[09:42] <dsanfab> performous (karaoke) is sluggish
[09:43] <gnugr> dsanfab: how old is that laptop?
[09:45] <gnugr> AFAIK VIA technologies no longer supported with nowdays kernels
[09:46] <gnugr> https://kmuto.jp/debian/hcl/index.rhtmlx?check=1&lspci=1106:3230
[09:48] <sixwheeledbeast> It's certainly doing some work. what laptop is it, what specs?
[09:48] <dsanfab> really old, amd turion 64x2
[09:49] <dsanfab> CPU~Dual core AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile TL-58 (-MCP-) speed/max~800/1900 MHz Kernel~4.15.0-32-generic x86_64 Up~1:21 Mem~825.3/1866.4MB HDD~160.0GB(5.0% used) Procs~161 Client~Shell inxi~2.3.56
[09:50] <sixwheeledbeast> I have an old dell laptop turion 2core that runs fine on 16.04LTS not upgraded to 18.04 yet.
[09:52] <dsanfab> inxi -F  https://thepasteb.in/p/O7h5j6XYkZ7uq
[09:55] <gnugr> dsanfab: if it's possible get ubuntu 12.04 to install, it supports those graphics
[09:56] <gnugr> or get debian/wheezy
[09:58] <dsanfab> solus seems ok, but didn't have performous karaoke
[09:59] <dsanfab> where can I propose the creation of a performous snap?
[10:22] <spica> Hi guys. Just installed Ubuntu 18.04.1, and selected the Encryption option. It created 2 boot partitions and I was wondering why? /boot/efi at 512MiB and /boot at 732 MiB
[17:51] <jay_glenn> Halloah. I'm here about what seems to be a common bug that no one on the forums has found a concrete way to solve. The Desktop menu bar overlaps every fullscreen or maximized application, instead of placing the application below it. Anyone have any ideas how to fix it?
[17:52] <jay_glenn> Waitaminute
[17:53] <jay_glenn> Disregard previous question. I think there's been an update
[17:53] <jay_glenn> :P
