| robin | Hi all, i wonder how i change the swappiness to "swappiness = 10" in xubuntu? i manage to do it in ubuntu but not here :/ | 13:24 |
|---|---|---|
| robin | i try : gedit admin:///etc/sysctl.conf | 13:25 |
| lighterowl | robin: this parameter is changed via sysctl, in exactly the same way as in ubuntu. | 13:27 |
| robin | could not open file "unable to handle admin locations is what i get | 13:28 |
| lighterowl | robin: try using a textmode editor via sudo. | 13:28 |
| robin | what command would that be ? =L | 13:29 |
| lighterowl | for example sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf | 13:29 |
| lighterowl | make the changes that you want, and then press ctrl-o to save the changes, and ctrl-x to exit the editor. | 13:29 |

| xubuntu4w | hi! I am a happy Xubuntu user for the last 3 years. I upgraded from 18.04 to 19.10 but the performance is extremely bad. For example switching workspaces takes ~1 sec and mouse freezes completely. How can I gather more information on what is going on? When I do GUI related actions I can see in top that Xorg is ~20-30% CPU, but I guess this is not | 14:13 |
| xubuntu4w | enough information | 14:13 |
| diogenes_ | xubuntu4w, if you upgraded, could you try with a new test user and see if you get the same issues? | 14:24 |
| xubuntu4w | diogenes_ is there a default/vanilla test user or should I go ahead and create a new user? | 14:27 |
| brainwash | xubuntu4w: try this https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=13233 | 14:28 |
| diogenes_ | xubuntu4w, yes, just to create a new user like: sudo useradd test | 14:29 |
| xubuntu4w | brainwash `xfconf-query -c xfwm4 -p /general/vblank_mode` gives `auto`. So by reading the forum post, I understand I currently use glx | 14:31 |
| brainwash | that is likely the case | 14:32 |
| brainwash | try the different modes | 14:32 |
| xubuntu4w | brainwash OMG! yes this completely solves the issue. Both "xpresent" and "off" work just fine | 14:36 |
| brainwash | great | 14:36 |
| brainwash | xpresent should have been the actual default value for Xfce 4.14, but some people reported problems, so it was changed back to glx | 14:37 |
| brainwash | and glx has its own problems =S | 14:38 |
| xubuntu4w | many many thanks! | 14:38 |

| xubuntu41w | Hello, I haven't used IRC before but I'm looking for some help with Xubuntu... | 17:46 |
| xubuntu41w | I'm trying to install Xubuntu on an old Macbook but the live USB isn't being picked up as one of the boot options. However I've got a live USB of Ubuntu (the gnome-based one) and that shows as an EFI boot option. Is there a way to get Xubuntu to boot in EFI mode? | 17:47 |
| xubuntu41w | Anyone here? | 17:50 |
