My specs:

my Asus EeePC 1015CX certified by ubuntu 12.04 lts

asus 1015 cx with gma 3600 graphic card intel atom dual core ubuntu 13.04

My problem: I need to use ubuntu 13.04, not 12.04.

ubuntu 13.04 runs in slow motion on default unity desktop, is it graphic card problem?

when i clicked file, runs in very slow animation on unity. windows comes up in very slow motion

I can't even use ubuntu 13.04 because so slow.

what's minimal requirement of ubuntu 13.04 or unity desktop? why is it so slow? what kind of processes should i take to fix it? I tried by myself but no good result.

Need some help anyway. Any ideas ? maybe i should change hardware lol? my Asus EeePC 1015CX certified by ubuntu 12.04 lts !

To fix the slow graphics performance, after upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail, and using Intel GPU, do these two things:

  1. Open the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file (it may be blank or non-existent):

    gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

  2. Paste this and save the file:

    Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
#Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
EndSection

  3. Reboot

You can't use Ubuntu comfortably with unity on this laptop because of a very weak GPU. I recommend to install Xubuntu or Lubuntu. These distro's do not require 3D acceleration for GUI working well.

there is a problem of unity 3d and it can not run properly 2 or 3gb ram so u can first remove unity by typing on terminal:

sudo apt-get remove unity

or

sudo apt-get purge unity

after then you install unity 2d by write in terminal

 sudo apt-get install unity-2d

after installing reboot the pc then u show your ubuntu run faster at speed of 100gb/s
