kamil_hi guys15:05
kamil_i am using kubuntu for about 4 months (since 15.4 was released) and i found that now my computer is slower than an the beginning, i am doing same tasks but i have lags, and freezes15:06
kamil_any tips how to find out what slows my computer?15:06
finetundra_BluesKaj: no output15:09
finetundra_kamil_: maybe check top/htop for what's using resources?15:09
kamil_finetundra_: mainly firefox, i have a lot of resources on this computer, its not the problem i think (8gb ram, used about 3)15:11
finetundra_kamil_: um, hmm15:12
kamil_finetundra_: and kidle_inject what is this?15:12
finetundra_kamil_: that I don't know.15:13
finetundra_kamil_: I seem to recall someone asking about this a few weeks ago. Almost the same issue. It may Have something to do with Plasma 515:14
BluesKajfinetundra_:  does your package manager show an iwlwifi version driver as installed?15:16
kamil_finetundra_: :/ i can install other de, but its not the soultion :/15:16
finetundra_BluesKaj: how do I check?15:18
BluesKajlook in your software center15:19
BluesKajthe default software center leaves something to be desired so I usually install muon to use as a reference for installed packages15:21
kamil_finetundra_: i fount that this may have something to do with intel_powerclamp but still have no idea what can i do15:21
finetundra_BluesKaj: I don't see it. But the issue has fixed itself for now and that'll do for the time being. I gotta run so I'll come back if/when it stops working again15:21
BluesKajor uninstalled packages too15:21
BluesKajfinetundra_:  so theat command must have loaded the eifi driver15:22
BluesKajwifi15:22
finetundra_kamil_: I honestly don't know what to tell you. I've gotta run though15:22
kamil_inetpro: okay, thanks15:22
kamil_wtf autocomplete...15:22
kamil_finetundra_: okay thanks :D15:23
BluesKajkamil_:  does ksysguard show any processes using lots of cpu ?15:23
kamil_BluesKaj: 4 processes kidle_inject with 12-13% of cpu usage each15:25
kamil_i found that blacklisting intel_powerclamp can help, im going to check this15:25
BluesKajkamil_:  yeah that's probly plasma at work15:26
kamil_BluesKaj: okay, rebooted, now, ill check if it work15:27
BluesKajkamil_:  rebooting won't change any default plasma processes15:28
kamil_BluesKaj: i blacklisted intel_powerclamp as suggested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1389077/comments/1815:29

=== koma is now known as Guest88631
kamil_BluesKaj: and if it is plasma, then what can i do? any updates to beta or something?15:32
BluesKajkamil_:  why powerclamp ?15:32
kamil_BluesKaj: i found that powerclamp is starting kidle_inject processes and its true, now i dont have it, but it still is not good as it was15:33
BluesKajkamil_:  15.04 ?15:36
kamil_BluesKaj: yes15:37
BluesKajkamil_:  i assume you run updates and upgrades periodically15:39
kamil_BluesKaj:15:39
kamil_yes *15:39
BluesKajkamil_:  is this a production work machine or a homeuser pc?15:41
kamil_BluesKaj: homeuser pc (laptop exactly)15:42
kamil_BluesKaj: but i have plasma 5.3 from ppa (kubuntu backports if i remember well)15:44
kamil_BluesKaj: u told that this is plasma work, maybe downgrade it to 5.2?15:48
BluesKajkamil_:  I believe plasma 5.4 is about to be uploaded to the backports soon and it promises to fix some of the slowness due to the plasma4 and 5 integration problems15:50
kamil_BluesKaj: how long is soon? :D15:51
kamil_i think ill downgrade it now, check if it work, and upgrade back if 5.4 will be available15:51
BluesKajkamil_:  in a week or 2 , depends how long the packaging process takes15:52
kamil_BluesKaj: okay, thanks for info, as i said ill check 5.2 now15:53
kamil_because it gets more and more annoying (today is worse than yesterday_15:53
BluesKajbest to leave it alone IMO, too many dependencies might get lost or boken, then you'll have a real jam up15:54
kamil_BluesKaj: ill take the risk :P15:55
akasichi, i changed my password for privacy some days, but now, i want to return to my old fast password, a single letter; when i type psswd username, it says it is too short... is any way to just have one character as I had in my installation? thnx15:55
BluesKajkamil_:  don't think you'll see much difference15:56
kamil_BluesKaj: lets see15:56
BluesKajakasic:  nope I think 3 letters is the minimum15:57
akasicok, i find the solution, is, infront of passwd, example: sudo passwd username     :)15:58
akasicthnx anyway blue15:58
kamil_BluesKaj: or maybe you can suggest other de, that would be easy to remove in the future?16:01
kamil_that can i use for those two weeks16:01

PhoenixzI did an apt-get upgrade on 15.10 which had a problem with one package and due to that I lost a lost of installed pacakaged (amarok was gone, so was yakuake, etc..) I've reinstalled most of these packages, but I do have one problem: things like knetwork manager, kdeconnect  (both would always be in the icon list at the lower right of the screen) etc are gone, and I don't know what packages to install to get those back on my desktop23:24
