xglautostart <deleted><reply> You could edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom to start Xgl by default each time or could make a session file for it so you can choose X or Xgl by each login(the latter is often preferred). https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl Added by PriceChild

brokenusplash-#kubuntu <reply> Supported screen resolutions are sometimes detected incorrectly, causing the splash screen to not appear and slowing down boot. Edit /etc/usplash.conf and change "xres" and "yres" to a resolution that your graphics system certainly supports, then run « sudo update-usplash-theme usplash-theme-kubuntu » Added by LjL

psychology-#ubuntu-offtopic <reply> #ubuntu-offtopic is not a counseling/psychological advice channel. If you need to talk to someone about a problem that is affecting you, you would be better served by talking to a qualified person offline. While this is a social chat channel, there are serious limits to our ability and willingness to give social and psychological advice. Added by dax
