Kind of strange behavior exhibited from my new Lubuntu install. I have two video cards installed on my system and one renders much slower than the other.
Video card A is a RS880 [Radeon HD 4250] which is onboard and video card B is a RV730 XT [Radeon HD 4670] which is an addon PCI express card.
Video card B has less than stellar performance and it is especially noticeable using OpenGL.
You havenāt mentioned your release of Lubuntu, but if itās a new install your kernel doesnāt match any supported release of Lubuntu so it could be youāre running something that isnāt Lubuntu.
I would check what youāre running, or provide details on what youāve done as details provided do not match a new Lubuntu install.
I am running Lubuntu and ālsb_release -aā gives me:
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 19.10
Release: 19.10
Codename: eoan
I am not using the stock kernel though, I am running the latest Liquorix kernel v5.5.0-7.1.
And considering the kernel, not the desktop environment or the applications, is responsible for controlling the GPU, what makes you think thatās not the problem? I would go ask at Liquorix. Alternately, go try the stock kernel and if itās a problem, report a bug in Launchpad. In that case, it will not be a Lubuntu problem, but one that affects all Ubuntu flavors.
Well I think I have found a workaround. If I prefix problematic apps and games with āvblank_mode=0ā all is well. I do not know if this is proper but it works. Thank you everyone for the help!
