Graphics problem thinkpad edge 13 amd

Asked by Daniel Cornea

hallo,
I think my computer thinkpad edge 13 amd has some graphics problems it works like it has no power to process many tasks at a time but I have a powerfull procesor and I just don't know why it moves so slowly, I think the graphics is the problem because my system fails to show some windows when moving them around. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/catalog/make/pci:1002
Thank you,

Daniel

Which of them is your graphics card? Which driver is in use?
Please open a terminal: ctrl+alt+t
and post output of:
sudo lshw -C video

Maybe try system-settings -> additional hardware drivers
