I installed Lubuntu 14.04 LTS on a new HP Pavillion (500-C6) AMD A6 8GB SDRAM AMD Radeon HD 8400 Graphics. It takes quite a while to go from login user password to showing the icons on the desktop and allowing you to start a terminal window. It also takes minutes to respond choosing logout of the application menu in the left corner or the shutdown icon in the right corner.

Although I haven't figured out the answers to all my questions I thought I would post the solutions I found. Getting rid of network manager and doing networking by hand did speed up login and got rid of lots of error messages from my logs. I use static ipaddresses for my system

*Set up Ip address this is done in /etc/network/interfaces along with gateway like this*

   auto eth0
   iface eth0 inet static
   address ipaddress
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   *gateway ipaddress
*
*Set up nameservers*
*/etc/resolv.conf/resolv.conf.d/base*
*nameserver **ipaddress*
*nameserver **ipaddress*
*nameserver **ipaddress*

Although I could not get the logout dialogue box to come up in a reasonable amount of time I did come up with a work around that log you off immediately with no redundant questions about if you really want to log off

To quit using the ldxsession dialogue that takes forever to launch replace it

cd /usr/bin

sudo cp lxsession-logout lxsession-logout.org
sudo rm lxsession-logout

sudo vi lxsession-logout

Put the following lines in the file

|#!/bin/sh|

|pkill
-9 -f lxsession|

save file

sudo chmod gou+x lxsession-logout



The parts I haven't found any answers to are
How to fix these
[drmm:radeon_acpi_init] ERROR cannot find a backlight controller There is a note saying Please enable IMMOU in Bios any suggestions on where to find this.

                Thanks
