[chimerax-users] ubuntu 20.04

[Greg Couch]

Glad to hear you got it working.  And thank you for the link to 
libffi6.  We plan to have a native Ubuntu 20.04 version soon.

There are lots of reasons why your ChimeraX might be slow.  Maybe you 
have too many other programs running and are running out of memory, or 
you have NVIDIA graphics and are using the open source driver instead of 
the  proprietary one, or your using an underpowered laptop, or ....  For 
us to give you a good guess instead of a random guess, please use 
ChimeraX's Help / Report a Bug dialog to send us some basic information 
about your computer and how it is configured (use a recent daily build 
since there have been recent improvements in the information gathering).

     HTH,

     Greg
