Hi, I'm competely new to linux and unbuntu. I installed unbuntu studio on an older computer that my friend had built me about 8-9 years back for recording music. The most details I can give about it is that it's a pentium 4, 2.4ghz processer, about 65 free gb of ram on the hard drive, an rv100 radon 7000 video card and an m-audio delta 1010lt sound card.
I have Jack and ardour working fine to record music but the graphics are lagging quite a bit. When I try to move a window around with the mouse it lags way behind the mouse moving. In ardour the line that indicates how far you are in the recording lags behind and if I try to press the stop button on playback it often won't stop for up to 10 seconds before the button registers and looks like it's been clicked. about twice now the sound got distorted during playback and the program crashed. Obviously it's imposible to watch a video on youtube or from a file. I never had these problems when the computer was on windows and I'm told the video card is pretty decent so I'm not sure why this is happening.
Where do I start fixing this problem? I've never really done programing either so I don't even know where to find settings for the video card in unbuntu studio, I don't see anything like that in settings manager.
Thanks for any help.
Josh
