I really need help this time !

Post by scottjge »

Hi all, it's been a long time since I have had Linux Mint as an OS and I am really stuck this time. I bought a new laptop, a HP Pavilion Sleekbook 15 and have been trying to get LMDE installed on it but have had very bad luck. I originally tried to install LMDE via a usb stick, everything installed alright as far as I new but everything was slow and sluggish. So I googled and read the forums looking for someone with the same problems but never found any answers. So after trying to install and re-install via the usb stick I decided that it may be something wrong with the way that LMDE installed on the USB stick, so I downloaded the iso again and burnt it to a DVD. I wiped the drive and installed everything again and with the same results.......... everything was slow and sluggish. It takes a long time to boot and after it boots things still run slow. After I click on an icon it will take anywhere from 10 to twenty seconds to open the file or app. I have tried BUM, preload, readahead, and prelink to see if I could get things to run a little better, but again no luck. I started going thru some of the logs to see if I could find anything that might show up as a problem. This is what I found in the boot log;

I see a lot of errors that says that the dependacy isn't meet but I went thru and checked and everything has been installed and all dependencies have been met, so I have no idea why I am getting this in the boot log.

Would someone take a look at the code and explain to me what is going on if possible? I sure can't figure it out.

I originally started out trying to install a dual boot with Windows 8 but that never worked out either. I could not get it too boot, so I contacted HP and they told me that if I tried to dual boot this computer that they would void my warranty. That did not go over big with me, so I wiped the disk and tried to put LMDE on it. They can keep their warranty.



Thank,

Hi,

So, you completed the install and ran a complete update.

Let's see if there is a process hog:

What do you see when you run:
top

We are looking for processes that have high cpu use or high memory use.

Re: I really need help this time !

Post by trapperjohn »

Humm,

Based on the single snapshot provided, both Xorg and marco are hogging your resources.

The high CPU use for xorg has appeared in various forums. Most promising is:
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=73633 but there are sevel others one marked as solved on the Mint forums http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 1&t=135739

Let's also see what happens if we kill marco. The top command shows the PID for the process (this may change from boot to boot so recheck it). Then run:
sudo kill <PID> where you replace <PID> with the actual PID (e.g. sudo kill 3922).

Ok I killed macro but when I do, it makes is hard to navigate because some of the window buttons no longer work but I don't see a real big improvement in response. I am going to head over to the url that you give me and do some reading.

Re: I really need help this time !

Well, nothing has worked as of yet but I am still looking around the internet. Hopefully I can find a fix.

One thing that I did notice is that the longer the computer is on the better it seems to get, nothing blazing but better. I would say it has about the same response as windows 8. Hate to even compare Linux to Windows but it is the only reference point that I have to go by. I also noticed a small increase in response after I switch to Dash in place of Bash.

Code: Select all

dpkg-reconfigure dash
That seemed to help most of all so far but it has a long way to go to get where I was with Linux Mint Debian Edition 201204. But hopefully I am getting closer.

Thanks for the help,

Re: I really need help this time !

Post by scottjge »

Okay, I have it narrowed down to Xorg is eating up the resources. Just moving a mouse with make the cpu usage sky rocket. Opening any app on the desktop will also send the % of cpu usage to 90 - 106%. Just moving a window makes Xorg use 106 % cpu. I know that I don't have a super computer but maybe I am expecting too much from the computer. I have a HP Sleekbook 15, with a AMD A8 quad core processor running at 1.6 GHZ, and 5gig of ram. Shouldn't this computer handle LMDE ok ?

Has anyone else seen this type of problem before and if so what cured it ? I am really lost here, way above my head on this one. Any suggestion, hints and or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Your laptop has all the horsepower it needs (and more). Let's keep hunting. Post:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade

uname -a

cat etc/X11/xorg.conf

cat /etc/boot/grub/grub.cfg

There will be a lot of output. Try to put them in separate codebloacks.

I assume you are using the Mate version of LMDE. Is this correct?

Had a similar problem running Mint 16 when I was using an onboard AMD video chipset -- AND -- the default Radeon drivers. When I installed the fglrx drivers, the problem was solved.

I believe your laptop has Intel HD 4000 video chipset, to confirm that, open a terminal and enter "inxi -G". If that's true, perhaps someone can provide a ppa where you can get the latest Intel drivers (if they are not already installed).

sorry, that's:
cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

and, as you reasoned, it's cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I should do a better job of proofing my posts.

BTW:
Does:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
show that you are completely updated?

Yes the update and upgrade said that it was up to date.

cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf is what I typed into the terminal.

Good. xorg.conf need not be present, but if it is it must be configured in a certain way.

I am researching this further. I'm a little unsure of the 3.11 kernel's capabilities on this system. Mark's recommendation of installing the Intel open source driver seems like a logical choice. Intel identifies the driver at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail ... 0&lang=eng

That page has a link to: https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads which shows a Feb 2014 released driver.

Another approach that will help verify the driver/kernel issue (and hopefully put your mind to rest on the Sleekbook's Linux compatibility) is to install, as a test, a distribution with a cutting edge kernel.

I was just looking up my specs for the computer to see what it has for a graphics card and it is a AMD Radeon HD 7600G and the display is a 1366 x 768 -32 bit Raster Display. Would the Intel driver work ?
I could try to compile a kernel for LMDE or are you saying to try a different os all together? I am not trying to sound ignorant but as I stated, I'm a little over my head on some of this stuff. I am not afraid of learning or trying different things but I may need some input and direction.

Thank you all so much for your help thus far. I absolutely appreciate it.

Humm, sleekbook Z? I am guessing that the xserver-xorg-video-ati installed already (put this in the synaptic filter box and see if this is so). With high cpu demand, the concern is how well it is singing with the cpu. But, if it is installed, you may want to try the alternate proprietary driver: fglrx-atieventsd. Be sure to make a note of what is being installed/uninstalled before applying the changes in case you have to back track.

If someone else has experience with the OP's setup, please chime in.

Thanks for the reply and the tips. Right now I am trying to figure out how to get the graphics back, I installed flgrx and lost everything. The computer won't even boot, so I tried to boot with the live cd, but it won't boot with that either. Stand by, I will get it shortly even if I have to go back to windows rescue disk and start over again.
Thanks for the tips.
