| runtyrobot | Evening. My wifi seems to be unable to reconnect after the computer has been slept or restarted. If I remove the network from the list in network management and re-add it, it works fine. Any ideas? | 00:00 |

| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 00:04 |

| heyou | wow it works | 00:15 |

| shalokshalom | Iv got nearly the same challenge in openSUSE, so maybe its a driver issue ? | 00:33 |
| nell | guys I have kubuntu installed on my system which supports a GTX 670 | 00:34 |
| nell | are the nvidia drivers okay to put on? or are they unstable | 00:34 |
| shalokshalom | Try the Wifi Driver from the restricted extras runtyrobot ? | 00:34 |
| runtyrobot | shalokshalom: maybe, the odd thing is - it worked in the beginning. | 00:35 |
| runtyrobot | I'll have to look that up - rather new to this :) | 00:35 |
| shalokshalom | nell If the free drivers enought for you, i would leave it | 00:35 |
| shalokshalom | robot Same Story in SUSE | 00:36 |
| shalokshalom | For a while and then: disconnect, right ? | 00:36 |
| shalokshalom | With Wifi Card/Chip ? | 00:36 |
| runtyrobot | built in chip | 00:36 |
| runtyrobot | but I have only experienced one disconnect during use | 00:37 |
| runtyrobot | I just can't reconnect when I've been disconnected, for some reason | 00:37 |
| shalokshalom | I shall pass this way but once; | 01:01 |
| shalokshalom | any good therefore that I can do, | 01:01 |
| shalokshalom | or any kindness that I can show | 01:01 |
| shalokshalom | let me not defer nor neglect it, | 01:01 |
| shalokshalom | for I shall not pass this way again | 01:01 |

| Whiskey`Wonka | is there a gui interface for setting h cpu gonernor and the min/max speeds? using the cli i can change the governor but after a min or two it goes back to performance and is locked at one of the lower speeds, this is causing my laptop to overheat | 08:32 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: There is a Unity indicator that does this and strangely enough it works in Kubunu. A different program does not spring to mind, however a GUI will probably not solve the problem, how old is the laptop? | 08:37 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: not very old, 2.5 years | 08:38 |
| yo3iga | have you tried this one ? http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/jupiter-ubuntu-ppa-hardware-and-power.html | 08:38 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | yo3iga: no i have not. | 08:39 |
| yo3iga | i installed on asus eeepc for a few models and obn other laptops and it works like charm | 08:39 |
| yo3iga | please try it | 08:39 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | there used to be the battery manager? that let you select what governor was used, it changed at some point | 08:40 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: This is the indicator: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/cpu-frequency-scaling-applet-in-unity.html | 08:40 |
| yo3iga | i belive it will do the job for you | 08:40 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: After 2.5 years you might want to check/replace the cooling liquid between the cpu and the heatsink. Also be sure to install lm-sensors. | 08:41 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: the issue is purely that the cpu is being pegged at 1.9ghz and never being allowed to scale, if i boot windows it never gets warm at all | 08:42 |
| yo3iga | lordevader, you are so right he should do that | 08:42 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | it runs like ass at 1.9 too, it needs to scale UP some times too but doesnt | 08:42 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: If it overheats that is a bigger problem than being stuck at 1.9, if you ask me. (Because they are probably related ;)) | 08:43 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: when i say 'over heat' i do not mean reaching shutdown temps | 08:43 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | i mean its warmer then cool | 08:43 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | and its stuck at 1.9 due to the governor, RE: current policy: frequency should be within 1.90 GHz and 1.90 GHz | 08:44 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | doesnt matter what the gov is when its told it doesnt have any other option | 08:45 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: With cpufreq-set you can specify the max and min values of a governor. | 08:45 |
| lordievader | (--min and --max) | 08:46 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: yes ive done that via cli and a few min later it reverts | 08:46 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | so i assumed there was some default policy in 12.04 with a place to configure it | 08:46 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | i know in 10 there was and i would sware it was the battery app | 08:46 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | but that might be a different distro | 08:47 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: Interesting, do you have some powersaving application installed who puts it back? Default is ondemand, however if you change it Kubuntu won't change it back. | 08:47 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | im on this thing waiting for my i7 to get back from repair, weak power jack | 08:47 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | no i have not changed it | 08:47 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | but it boots with 'performance' and 1.9/1.9 | 08:48 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: Does cpufreq-info specify more supported frequencies? | 08:48 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | yes | 08:49 |
| yo3iga | maybe you have to take a look in bios settings | 08:49 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | but when the gov is told it can only select between 1.9 and 1.9, its going to pick 1.9 | 08:49 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: And specifying a higher freq with the -c flag, does the system put it back after a while? | 08:50 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | yo3iga: no bios settings have changed since i have 9 or 10 on here and ive directly upgraded from them to 11 to 12 | 08:50 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: yes, all settings revert to performance 1.9/1.9 | 08:50 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: What cpu are we talking about anyway? | 08:51 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | a craptastic AMD Turion(tm) II P540 Dual-Core Processor | 08:51 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | jupiter sorta did it | 08:57 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | its at least keeping the gov at ondemand | 08:58 |
| yo3iga | told ya | 08:58 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | but it doesnt set selectable freq and its still only allowed 1.9 | 08:58 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: Cool and Quiet is enabled in the bios? | 08:59 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | http://pastebin.com/gydU77wE | 08:59 |
| yo3iga | do a reboot and see then | 08:59 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | thats not what its called on this laptop | 08:59 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | yes it is enabled it was one of the first things i checked | 09:00 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | its option is 'os select' and 'min performance' | 09:00 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: Hmm, too bad. | 09:01 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | yea its to bad kubuntu went and doesnt have any way to configure what ever is used for cpu scaling now in 12.04 | 09:01 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | hmmm | 09:09 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | ok edited /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq and now it has the range! | 09:12 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: Isn /sys a virtual mount? | 09:13 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | isnt it a redirect for /proc ? | 09:13 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | well, its working, so ill stick with it | 09:15 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | now its spending all (or most) of its time at 800mhz | 09:16 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | nice and sleepy | 09:16 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | these Turions just are not i7's heh | 09:16 |
| lordievader | Quote from about.com: "Starting with kernel 2.6 there's a new /sys directory for PnP configuration. It's a sysfs tpye of filesystem and it's something like the /proc filesystem since the "files" represent information in the kernel memory and are not on your harddrive. But it's not as useful as the /proc filesystem." | 09:17 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | well i found info saying that in 2.6 cpu scaling was moved there | 09:18 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | and my edits had the desired effect | 09:18 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | its all kernel scaling now, or thats the direction the devs want it to go any how | 09:18 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | just for what ever issue, my upgrade path did not set the min/max/gov correctly | 09:19 |
| lordievader | I'm glad you fixed your problem :) | 09:19 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | it looks like it set it to what my last configs max was for, video streaming at 1900mhz with ondemand | 09:19 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | me too and thanks for the help | 09:19 |
| lordievader | No problem, that's why I'm here :) | 09:21 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | heheh | 09:22 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | somewhat i guess so | 09:22 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | now if we can figure out this damn touchpad issue.... | 09:24 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | its the first truely 'wtf thats a windows trait' ive had in like 8? years | 09:26 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | the pad randomly becomes one big left button, only a reboot fixes it | 09:26 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | any idea on how to reset the pad? there doesnt look to be a dedicated module | 09:26 |
| lordievader | Whiskey`Wonka: I have about zero experience with touchpad failures/bugs/errors... | 09:28 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | lordievader: yea for me its 'does it work? no? did the syntaptic module load? no? load it' | 09:29 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | but this is something funky and never did have a module load for it | 09:29 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | well that was stupid simple, reload module psmouse | 09:35 |
