ubuntu 18.04 not like my 9300 ge??

ScubaSteve404

i recently tried using an old 9300 ge to get a digital video output on my sff optiplex and found out ubuntu 18.04 doesn't like it when the card is installed. when a prgram tries to load something the ONLY thing that doesn't lock up is the mouse cursor and if the mouse cursor has the chance to become the loading bubble the anmation will also freeze but the cursor can still move around the screen, the system will take minute to process whats going on and NOTHING is responsive until the system recovers.

 

what should i do and is this a sign my card has issues its self? evan though linux has a hissy fit if i try to you'd expect a card of this calibre to perform, evan with maxed out clocks while furmark ran at 3 FPS i couldn't see any artifacting in the tiny amount of time i ran furmark. im hoping its a weird driver thing i'll investigate in a little while

what driver were you using? 

 

Nvidia gpus aren't great on linux, so try using the nvidia drivers.
