hi, this might be offtopic to some extent, but I can surely use good opinions/ideas, HP Pavilion dv6 with colorful vertical lines, from what I've seen it seems to be caused by heat ! did any of you guys experience something similar?	what is dv6?
what is dv6? my aunt has a similar problem with a dell laptop	I was stupid enough to not check and then double check for problems with those models of HP notebooks/laptops
I was stupid enough to not check and then double check for problems with those models of HP notebooks/laptops	if you know this is caused by heat the only easy solution is to just make sure you keep it as cool as possible
if you know this is caused by heat the only easy solution is to just make sure you keep it as cool as possible	cause I would've discovered things like http://hpverticalline.com/ before I buy
cause I would've discovered things like http://hpverticalline.com/ before I buy did you have a similar problem?	my aunt is having the same problem with a dell
my aunt is having the same problem with a dell	the problem is I can't live with it, simply cause I move alot which means heat for short
the problem is I can't live with it, simply cause I move alot which means heat for short well, you didn't help her getting it fixed?	the only QUICK solution I can think of is to get one of those cooling pads they make for laptops with the extra fans in them.
the only QUICK solution I can think of is to get one of those cooling pads they make for laptops with the extra fans in them. I was just trying to think of easy solutions that would save you from having to buy a new screen	the problem seems to exist in the screen inverter
the problem seems to exist in the screen inverter due to a very stupid heatsink design	yes she had to buy a new screen
yes she had to buy a new screen	yeah I thought of that already, the problem is that it's not fixed yet
yeah I thought of that already, the problem is that it's not fixed yet I think I should get rid of it	yes even if you buy a new screen it will either only be a temporary fix or not stop completely the only other option is to send it into HP unless you know someone with spare parts
yes even if you buy a new screen it will either only be a temporary fix or not stop completely the only other option is to send it into HP unless you know someone with spare parts yes I think so too, you will always have problems with it at least you will know not to make the same mistake haha	even if I sent it to HP care, it's a temporary fix, they'd replace the inverter same problem exists I think
even if I sent it to HP care, it's a temporary fix, they'd replace the inverter same problem exists I think	since your not the only one I am sure that has had this problem they may have redesigned the parts to work better
since your not the only one I am sure that has had this problem they may have redesigned the parts to work better they may have come up with a solution by now	yeah no one learns for free
yeah no one learns for free yeah I'm hoping for that, the problem is that the only solution would be in the inverter itself cause they wouldn't be able to modify my frigin notebook's casing design half the heat goes up to the inverter yes I'm hoping	honestly if you send it in and have it fixed then the battle would be keeping it cool so it doesnt happen again. I would just invest in a better laptop
honestly if you send it in and have it fixed then the battle would be keeping it cool so it doesnt happen again. I would just invest in a better laptop	although I guess mine isn't that Old
although I guess mine isn't that Old	there are plenty of low cost laptops out there now that will last 10 years or better

what is so great about that model? well I think you already know what you have to do, unfortunately there is no easy fix	It would be hard to choose something with a similar Hardware specifications
It would be hard to choose something with a similar Hardware specifications it's just the 3MB L2 cache and 4MB RAM with ATI Radeon	oh yeah I see your point
oh yeah I see your point well if that is worth it to you to keep sinking more and more money into it	I guess I'll have to contact HP support and try to convince them to tell me if they've developed a solution for such problem heh
I guess I'll have to contact HP support and try to convince them to tell me if they've developed a solution for such problem heh	yeah that's what I would do so you know if the problem will actually be fixed or not
yeah that's what I would do so you know if the problem will actually be fixed or not	do you know a better Laptop with similar hardware?
do you know a better Laptop with similar hardware?	I like it, it works great for multimedia
I like it, it works great for multimedia	never heard of it heh
never heard of it heh sounds an Acer?	yeah they are a division of acer
yeah they are a division of acer they are only 350 dollars it has 1mb L2 cache 3gb ram 250gb hdd	nice
nice	I am big on multimedia and it works great for that.

well I guess I know what I have to do, and I should've waited to get a Dell Altitude or something	what do you use it for?
what do you use it for?	I'm investing money in laptop/notebook cause I don't have a Desktop PC

I've been using configurations like that for ages, and thought it's time for some Luxury if you know what I mean a relief instead of waiting for Rendering	yes I know what you mean that is what I got the Emachines laptop for, if I need any power processing to be done

you can't do more tasks with rendering in background "Even with my hardware specs"	I am not sure what you mean by rendering?
I am not sure what you mean by rendering? yeah I don't do much of that with this old laptop just streaming movies to the PS3	High Definition videos or 3D animations sometimes
High Definition videos or 3D animations sometimes yeah I figured :-)	it was mostly a project just to see if it could do it
it was mostly a project just to see if it could do it do you know of any clean up utility for ubuntu and xubuntu? like glary or ccleaner?	I think I came across something like ccleaner although I never needed such things with Linux in general
I think I came across something like ccleaner although I never needed such things with Linux in general	Linux doesn't need those types of programs? I am wondering because it seems like this laptop has been slowing down lately
Linux doesn't need those types of programs? I am wondering because it seems like this laptop has been slowing down lately	I'm sure you can find out more on Ubuntu Forums, cause I can't recall at the moment
I'm sure you can find out more on Ubuntu Forums, cause I can't recall at the moment I'll try to remember though :-) slowing down, could be caused by a number of reasons, did you try a tool like htop? to monitor CPU/Mem usage	just to perform basic tasks
just to perform basic tasks yes my cpu has been running very high lately cool yeah I am still new to Linux and really feel pretty lost most the time	well htop is a CLI utility that would tell you what's the process using your CPU/Mem the most
well htop is a CLI utility that would tell you what's the process using your CPU/Mem the most can you get it?	I am not sure but I will check into that
I am not sure but I will check into that	first you need to know what's using your CPU
first you need to know what's using your CPU yes it's a very useful tool	yes ccleaner and glary is what I use for my windows op systems
yes ccleaner and glary is what I use for my windows op systems	great :-)
great :-) as far as I recall ccleaner was mostly for Windows Registery, you don't have such thing in a Linux environment	ok I am installing it now
ok I am installing it now	well you don't need that with Ubuntu, so let's see what's eating your system's resources
well you don't need that with Ubuntu, so let's see what's eating your system's resources got it installed?	well it's not letting me download it, it says that it requires installation of untrusted packages and I click ok and it stops the download. It doesn't give me any other option
well it's not letting me download it, it says that it requires installation of untrusted packages and I click ok and it stops the download. It doesn't give me any other option	how did you install ?

yes	what tool are you using?
what tool are you using? OK back to your problem, was making sure of the tools you need most you had this problem earlier before I told you about htop? see if there updates available, then try to install htop again	yeah I already made sure everything was up to date before I got on this chat
yeah I already made sure everything was up to date before I got on this chat no I think I know what is running my cpu up as far as processes I think its my torrent client	you could try top
you could try top see if you have top installed	actually I am being swamped with some problems at the moment haha I am going to have to get off here and start takin care of some of this
