[06:03] <xubuntu33i> wow, a real life xubuntu irc chat

[06:03] <xubuntu33i> hello all
[06:57] <xubuntu93d> 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] <knome> xubuntu93d, are you sure you need the debug files?
[13:03] <xubuntu18w> 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] <diogenes_> xubuntu18w, etcher
[13:08] <xubuntu18w> thanks

[21:22] <arpad2> in  which folder are kept the user specific display settings?
[21:23] <arpad2> the system becomes very slow after login, is it possible to keep the same display settings after login?
[21:34] <brainwash> arpad2: which display settings?
[21:34] <brainwash> or, what kind of settings
[21:35] <brainwash> resolution and frequency?
[21:35] <arpad2> brainwash: I think the most relevant would be the video card driver setting
[21:36] <arpad2> brainwash: currently the LIVEDVD runs much faster than the installed system AFTER logging in
[21:37] <brainwash> but what does that mean?
[21:37] <brainwash> faster?
[21:37] <brainwash> you try to toggle the Xfce compositor
[21:38] <brainwash> Xfce settings > window manages tweaks > compositor
[21:40] <arpad2> brainwash: ok
[21:40] <brainwash> other than that, which graphics card is that? which driver?
[21:40] <arpad2> this was under live dvd https://justpaste.it/2qh9g
[21:40] <arpad2> nvidia gtx 675mx
[21:41] <arpad2> and this from the installed system https://justpaste.it/5ilu9
[21:43] <arpad2> as I was pointted out the main difference is in "OpenGL vendor string"
[21:44] <arpad2> wth Live it's Intel, in installed system it is VMware
[21:45] <brainwash> that would be software rendering
[21:45] <brainwash> which is slow
[21:45] <arpad2> nvidia 410 is installed but I was told that the system is not using it for some reason
[21:46] <brainwash> is it installed?
[21:46] <arpad2> yeah
[21:46] <brainwash> the pasted log says otherwise
[21:47] <brainwash> is 410 from a PPA?
[21:49] <arpad2> yes
[21:49] <brainwash> and why did you add it?
[21:50] <brainwash> I would check if the version in the official repository works fine
[21:51] <brainwash> looks like it's nvidia-driver-390
[21:51] <arpad2> it didn't work, I tried 390 from Additional Drivers
[21:51] <arpad2> there is some other problem
[21:51] <brainwash> right
[21:52] <arpad2> the symptom is that the system slows down after login
[21:52] <brainwash> because it's using software rendering
[21:52] <brainwash> as in, not the graphics card capabilities
[21:52] <brainwash> well, I suggest that you ask in #ubuntu
[21:53] <arpad2> ok, how can we change this?
[21:53] <brainwash> people over there know better how to debug issues with nvidia
[21:53] <brainwash> sadly, I don't know
[21:53] <arpad2> and which settings are applied after login?
[21:54] <brainwash> no particular ones I'd think
[21:54] <arpad2> 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] <arpad2> ok
[21:55] <brainwash> how do you determine that the login screen is performing better?
[21:55] <brainwash> it's just a login screen after all
[21:55] <arpad2> by the mouse reaction time on the screen
[21:55] <arpad2> so the current state is so bad that it affects even the mouse
[21:56] <arpad2> it is terribly slow
[21:56] <brainwash> you have to properly install the nvidia driver
[21:56] <brainwash> that should be your main goal
[21:56] <arpad2> I did reinstall, and my first thing was to install it from the Additional Drivers
[21:57] <brainwash> 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] <arpad2> I can see some options in the Compositor tab
[22:01] <brainwash> top check box
[22:02] <arpad2> Enable display compositing ticked
[22:03] <brainwash> untick it
[22:05] <arpad2> ok, done
[22:06] <brainwash> any difference?
[22:06] <arpad2> yes:)
[22:06] <arpad2> it's better now, smoother, faster
[22:07] <arpad2> the weather item in the upper pannel is changing without slowing down for instance
[22:08] <brainwash> alright
[22:08] <brainwash> like I suspected
[22:09] <arpad2> any hope for bringing back nvidia?
[22:09] <brainwash> that's a question for #ubuntu
[22:09] <arpad2> ok
[22:09] <brainwash> I cannot assist with that
[22:09] <arpad2> but you helped me thank you !
[22:09] <brainwash> you're welcome
[22:42] <arpad2> brainwash: let's say I have sth similar to this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1752938
[22:43] <arpad2> how to implement the solution?
