Introduction
Recently I upgraded to the Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. Since then my computer seems to have slowed down. Even when I type into the keyboard I notice it is slowed down. However, it might be a conincidence. Perhaps my computer was slowing down before I upgraded to Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS. All I know is that I am getting frustrated and losing productivity. I looked at a few similar questoins and tried to make heads or tails of my situtation. I need some help.
The questions, answers, and comments in [1] are relevant to my problem. I typed top and see that gnome-shell is using 25-40% of my CPU. Firefox (when minimal tabs open) is eating 5-7%. Firefox when I have videopages (i.e., things like netflix) is eating 30% or more of the CPU. When I compile *.tex files with Texmaker 100% of my CPU is used.
The questions, answers, and comments in [2] relevant to my problem.
(A) I tried looking at my hard drive using sudo smartctl -t long /dev/nvme0n1. What I got was
Read Self-test Log failed: Invalid Field in Command (0x4002)
(B) I typed sudo fdisk -l. What I got was:
