white_magiccan someone help me figure out how to remove tearing? I'm running latest Lubuntu (so Ubuntu with the Lxqt DE) and I have compton installed. I have tried running it with various launch params, e.g. "compton --backend glx --vsync opengl-swc" but tearing persists in a firefox webpage that I'm using as a test. I have an Nvidia GPU with the latest proprietary drivers installed. Please advise.01:17
tsimonq2Did you install Lubuntu or LXQt on top of Ubuntu?01:18
tsimonq2There's a difference.01:18

tsimonq2Because the Debian LXQt maintainer, a core LXQt developer, created the channel.01:31

ubottuYou can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html12:16
lubot<JyotiGomes> Hi! Cant install Lubuntu 18.10... everytime freezes here...23:45

wxl@JyotiGomes are you sure that you checked the integrity of the install media?23:46
lubot<JyotiGomes> I downloaded the iso file from Lubuntu.me23:46
wxlthat's not what i asked23:46
lubot<JyotiGomes> The usb stick is working fine and i burned the iso using mkusb for linux23:48
wxlstill not what i asked23:48
wxlyou would need to (a) verify the checksum of the iso and (b) select "check disc for defects" at the boot screen. if both of those tests succeed, then you can be sure there are no download or copy errors. one bit of difference can result in very strange errors.23:49
lubot<JyotiGomes> Sorry, i do not know very much about the terminology. How may i check the integrity of the install media23:49

wxl!hashes23:50
ubottuSee https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of all downloadable Ubuntu releases23:50
wxl^ that deals with (a)23:50
lubot<JyotiGomes> Ok. I will see. Thanks23:50
wxl(b) is one of the selections when you come to the initial boot screen where "start lubuntu" is an option23:50
wxlif you still have problems after confirming that, i would suggest getting xubuntu and see if you also have the same problem with it. if you do, then there is some sort of issue with the kernel and your computer.23:51
