I noticed that everytime I play something like Counter Strike Source, my graphics performance drops down to something like 15fps while normally it is locked at a max FPS of 40fps.. This slowdown happens and also makes my computer generally pretty slow. Thermo maximum has not been tripped (I know, and I actually underclock while playing these games). I'm not sure why this is happening. It only happens on 13.10. I have bumblebee installed. I used both cards to play the game and the same thing happens ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: linux-image-3.11.0-11-generic 3.11.0-11.17 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-11.17-generic 3.11.3 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-11-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: shuhao 2611 F.... pulseaudio shuhao 4063 F.... plugin-containe /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: shuhao 4063 F...m plugin-containe /dev/snd/timer: shuhao 4063 f.... plugin-containe Date: Mon Oct 7 20:39:17 2013 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=0c4e9477-6a74-48cb-a0e4-37bc3251580e InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-07-08 (91 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130423.1) MachineType: LENOVO 4180J4C MarkForUpload: True ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.11.0-11-generic root=/dev/mapper/xubuntu--vg-root ro quiet splash i915.modeset=1 i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 PulseList: Error: command ['pacmd', 'list'] failed with exit code 1: Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/1000/pulse): Permission denied No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
