Ubuntu 13.04 running really slow and Hanging
- by CAM
Up till recently I have been running 13.04 on my laptop very happily. This morning however, I turned on my laptop to find it running really slow. Takes 5 min to load a program and even then the program freezes and I have had 3 system hangs this morning already. The Unity Desktop appears to run ok but programs do not.
Things I have tried so far:
Checking for Propitiatory graphics drivers - none shown available (I have bumblebee running already).
Using the recovery boot options from Grub to repair broken packages.
Recent changes - Updated computer, Installed some indicator applets which have worked fine for me before.
System Specs: Asus U36s, Intel Core i5-2450M 2.5GHz, 4GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce 610M-1GB, Dual boot Win7 & Ubuntu 13.04
I'm a bit of a noob with Ubuntu but am happy enough running stuff in terminal if you will advise me on what to run. I'm just a bit stuck on what do to fix this without a reinstall.
Thanks a lot for your help.
