Yes, I know I'm going to catch hell for this, but I'm trying to install lcnc on a laptop...
Hp probook 645 g2 Amd processor Radeon graphics Had a hell of a time getting legacy support to even work on this thing. Finally got Linux installed after 3 and a half hours of head scratching. Everything boots up properly, terminal works, wicd opens up, I can get apt updates in terminal, that all works fine. What doesn't work is EVERYTHING ELSE. I can't open glxgears - gui freezes, i can't open thunar - gui freezes, i can't open LCNC - gui freezes, synaptic - freezes, geany - freezes, you get the idea. It was doing it from the live boot session, but i thought it may have been a fluke, apparently it isn't a fluke. The weird thing is, if I open, for example, thunar and click somewhere on the desktop, it'll work again, only to freeze when trying to open a folder, etc, etc. While this is happening, ctrl+alt+f1 will give me a login shell and that all works perfectly. I believe it's a faulty gpu driver but I'm not sure how to fix it. Any suggestions? Phil T.
