=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [06:03] wow, a real life xubuntu irc chat [06:03] queue own wilson [06:03] hello all [06:57] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/amd64/libsdl2-dbg does this page seem broken for anyone else, or any idea where else to get it [07:21] xubuntu93d, are you sure you need the debug files? [13:03] Hi everyone. I tried to install Xubuntu using Rufus, but I have some problem with Syslinux version. Is there any other recomended programm to install Xubuntu on USB? [13:05] xubuntu18w, etcher [13:08] thanks [13:13] yw === Rtfsc9 is now known as Rtfsc8 === Israphel_ is now known as Israphel [21:22] in which folder are kept the user specific display settings? [21:23] the system becomes very slow after login, is it possible to keep the same display settings after login? [21:34] arpad2: which display settings? [21:34] or, what kind of settings [21:35] resolution and frequency? [21:35] brainwash: I think the most relevant would be the video card driver setting [21:36] brainwash: currently the LIVEDVD runs much faster than the installed system AFTER logging in [21:37] but what does that mean? [21:37] faster? [21:37] you try to toggle the Xfce compositor [21:38] Xfce settings > window manages tweaks > compositor [21:40] brainwash: ok [21:40] other than that, which graphics card is that? which driver? [21:40] this was under live dvd https://justpaste.it/2qh9g [21:40] nvidia gtx 675mx [21:41] and this from the installed system https://justpaste.it/5ilu9 [21:43] as I was pointted out the main difference is in "OpenGL vendor string" [21:44] wth Live it's Intel, in installed system it is VMware [21:45] that would be software rendering [21:45] which is slow [21:45] nvidia 410 is installed but I was told that the system is not using it for some reason [21:46] is it installed? [21:46] yeah [21:46] the pasted log says otherwise [21:47] is 410 from a PPA? [21:49] yes [21:49] and why did you add it? [21:50] I would check if the version in the official repository works fine [21:51] looks like it's nvidia-driver-390 [21:51] it didn't work, I tried 390 from Additional Drivers [21:51] there is some other problem [21:51] right [21:52] the symptom is that the system slows down after login [21:52] because it's using software rendering [21:52] as in, not the graphics card capabilities [21:52] well, I suggest that you ask in #ubuntu [21:53] ok, how can we change this? [21:53] people over there know better how to debug issues with nvidia [21:53] sadly, I don't know [21:53] and which settings are applied after login? [21:54] no particular ones I'd think [21:54] I mean why is there a difference before and after login? so where is it stored that it should use the software rendering and not the video card driver? [21:54] ok [21:55] how do you determine that the login screen is performing better? [21:55] it's just a login screen after all [21:55] by the mouse reaction time on the screen [21:55] so the current state is so bad that it affects even the mouse [21:56] it is terribly slow [21:56] you have to properly install the nvidia driver [21:56] that should be your main goal [21:56] I did reinstall, and my first thing was to install it from the Additional Drivers [21:57] the main thing that may cause a slowdown is the mentioned Xfce compositor, but I'm not sure if you can even enable it if only software rendering is available [21:59] I can see some options in the Compositor tab [22:01] top check box [22:02] Enable display compositing ticked [22:03] untick it [22:05] ok, done [22:06] any difference? [22:06] yes:) [22:06] it's better now, smoother, faster [22:07] the weather item in the upper pannel is changing without slowing down for instance [22:08] alright [22:08] like I suspected [22:09] any hope for bringing back nvidia? [22:09] that's a question for #ubuntu [22:09] ok [22:09] I cannot assist with that [22:09] but you helped me thank you ! [22:09] you're welcome [22:42] brainwash: let's say I have sth similar to this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1752938 [22:43] Launchpad bug 1768610 in nux (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1752938 leftover conffile forces GNOME is software rendering" [High,Fix released] [22:43] how to implement the solution?
