Why does Ubuntu feel so sluggish on my asus 1000HE netbook
- by Pete Hodgson
I recently purchased a nice asus 1000HE, and installed Ubuntu NBR. However, I'm pretty disappointed with how sluggish it feels. I'm wondering if I maybe need to install a closed-source graphics driver - it feels similar to how my work laptop performed before I installed the restricted nvidia driver on that machine.

In case it's any use:
