Hi
I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop and have installed ubuntu 14.04 on it and everything i do takes a few seconds no matter what i do. (turns grey as if it crashes) wich is frustrating when even the simplest tasks do it, it can take a very long time to do anything. eksample: i open firefox (crash for a 5 seconds then opens) open a tab (crash) click on search box (crash) type something and hit enter (crash) you get the idea
this isn't just with firefox but everything on this laptop. i have been watching the CPU in system monitor and it doesn't seem to go much over 50% with these simple tasks. I also tried playing sudoku to see if it would happen and it didn't happen nearly as often but still every once in a while. i read somewhere that it could be a video card driver has not been installed so i started up dota2 in steam and it takes a looong time to start the game 5min crashes every loading screen and the graphics are horrible.
Is there a way to find out if the current driver is not working and how do i install a new one? (not very familiar with terminal commands and such)
I have tried this with ******* 7 that was installed on this laptop before ubuntu and everything worked fine (so to speak ) has anyone seen this before? please let me know if anyone has a solution to this, thanks
