Hi all,
I have been in love with Ubuntu MATE since its inception with the PPA in 14.04, but I have been plagued by a persistent problem with my hardware. Tearing.
My laptop is:
Dell Latitude E6420
Core i5-2540M Dual Core clocked at 2.6GHz
8GB ram
nVidia 4200M 1Gb
128GB SATAIII SSD
It’s nothing to thumb your nose at, but I understand she’s not brand new. I loaded Windows 10 on a second drive and everything is so flawless that I’m seriously considering switching back. My only hope is that someone here in the forums can rescue me and pull me back to MATE. I’ve tried Compton with no success.
Please help.
Thank you,
-Pete
