[09:56] <Samul`> test
[09:56] <Samul`> wtf
[14:33] <holstein> Samul`: ?
[14:33] <holstein> can i assit you testing something?
[14:33] <holstein> assist*
[14:39] <Samul`> holstein: ?
[14:40] <Samul`> I'm not testing anything haha
[14:40] <Samul`> I just noticed that my irc client connects twice to freenode when I open it
[14:40] <Samul`> with the same nick, in both windows
[14:41] <Samul`> ONE THING THAT INDEED MAKES ME MAD IS THAT MY NEWLY INSTALLED UBUNTU 14 LTS FREEZES WITHOUT ANY REASON
[14:43] <holstein> 14.04
[14:44] <holstein> id say, it would be constructive to look for that reason..
[14:45] <Samul`> holstein: the fact is
[14:45] <Samul`> I installed it a couple of hours ago
[14:45] <Samul`> and before I even had the time to mess something up by myself
[14:45] <Samul`> it started freezing every like 15 minutes
[14:46] <Samul`> if there's any audio playing, it keeps playing
[14:46] <Samul`> but anything else freezes
[14:46] <Samul`> to fix it I have to move to another console
[14:46] <holstein> cool
[14:46] <Samul`> ctrl + alt + f"n", and then move back
[14:47] <Samul`> that's pretty annoying
[14:47] <holstein> what would i do? i would run a few quick ram and hard drive tests, to rule those out.. then, i would, since you can get to tty, try running top, or htop, and see what it looks like is happening
[14:47] <holstein> Samul`: im sure it is, but, you must understand, thats not a feature
[14:47] <holstein> its not something that is happening regularly on other 14.04 installations..
[14:48] <Samul`> really?
[14:48] <Samul`> so I'm not the only one who has this problm?
[14:48] <Samul`> *problem
[14:49] <holstein> Samul`: i have had those issues, and found the causes to be many different things
[14:49] <holstein> Samul`: but, its not a feature of the OS. its not something that 14.04 LTS does
[14:50] <holstein> i use 14.04 for hours/days.. with no issues.. this IRC chat is running on ubuntu 14.04, and has been up for months and months..
[14:51] <Samul`> so what caused your problem?
[14:51] <holstein> Samul`: bad hardware
[14:51] <holstein> Samul`: also, GPU drivers..
[14:52] <Samul`> wait
[14:52] <Samul`> if you change GPU drivers
[14:52] <holstein> it depends
[14:52] <Samul`> do you have to restart the os in order to make those changes effective?
[14:53] <holstein> the hardware is dependent on that
[14:53] <Samul`> because I did change my gpu drivers to proprietary ones, and I did reboot.
[14:53] <holstein> and im not suggesting that as a fix, but rather, something you can look into
[14:53] <Samul`> then I changed them back but I didn't reboot
[14:53] <holstein> Samul`: you'll have to reboot for that to take effect
[14:53] <holstein> those are kernel modules..
[14:53] <Samul`> oh
[14:54] <Samul`> next time it crashes (I'm working on some stuff right now) I'll reboot
[14:54] <Samul`> let's hope it will fix the problem
[14:54] <holstein> i dont think anything is broken to fix, if, you are using drivers that have been removed
