| mparillo | I have run kubuntu on a 1GB Netbook, but most people would say I was a glutton for punishment. | 00:08 |
| teledyn | viewer|90721: maybe an issue with kscreen? | 01:26 |
| kkerwin | Hi. I'm having difficulty connecting my BCM43124 to WiFi (broadcom). I have rebuilt bcmwl-kernel-source with no luck. I have already followed ubottu's instructions at ! Broadcom | 02:46 |
| kkerwin | Is anyone able to help? | 02:46 |

| amichair | there seems to be a serious memory leak since the upgrade to 16.10 | 06:39 |
| amichair | the total RES is less than 2G, yet it shows 14G used + 3G swap (which was never used before), 36M buffers, 450M cache | 06:40 |
| amichair | is this a known issue? | 06:40 |
| amichair | any way to diagnose it? | 06:40 |
| hateball | amichair: what process uses such memory? | 07:02 |
| amichair | hateball: the total RES of all processes looks like around 2-3G | 07:10 |
| amichair | hateball: does that mean it's a kernel leak? that doesn't appear anywhere? | 07:10 |
| amichair | hateball: the system is hardly usable, thrashing all the time, will have to restart soon - is there anything i can check before that? | 07:11 |
| hateball | amichair: what are you using to check? top? | 07:12 |
| amichair | hateball: htop | 07:12 |
| amichair | free -h agrees about the totals | 07:12 |
| amichair | using 4.8.0-26-generic | 07:15 |
| amichair | hateball: any ideas? | 07:35 |
| hateball | amichair: Not really, no | 07:36 |
| hateball | I can only say I don't experience the same thing | 07:36 |
| amichair | hateball: ok, thanks. I'll have to restart every couple of days then, until it's fixed :-( | 07:39 |
| amichair | like the good old windows 95 days | 07:39 |
| hateball | heh | 07:39 |
| hateball | amichair: and you've made sure it's not a plasmashell leak by just restarting that? | 07:40 |
| amichair | hateball: wouldn't that show high RES for plasma process? | 07:40 |
| hateball | amichair: sure | 07:41 |
| hateball | but if *nothing* shows high memory, it's a starting point I guess? | 07:42 |
| amichair | hateball: plasmashell using 108M RES | 07:42 |
| amichair | hateball: It doesn't show up for any process, which is why I suspect it might be within the kernel | 07:42 |

| aniketh_ | http://kubuntu.org/news/plasma-5-6-4-available-in-16-04-backports/ | 09:30 |
| aniketh_ | Was following this tuts | 09:30 |
| aniketh_ | Is it possible that my system could break by using that backports ? | 09:30 |
| hateball | Well, anything is possible. But I would say that most of us that use 16.04 have been running backports for months without issues | 09:33 |
| hateball | aniketh_: a oneliner if you feel like using it: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports && sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade | 09:33 |
| aniketh_ | I know how to do. But wasn't sure if it would break my system or not | 09:37 |
| aniketh_ | Anyways will give it a try | 09:38 |
| aniketh_ | hateball: Thanks | 09:38 |
| hateball | I am using it as we speak ;d | 09:38 |
| aniketh_ | hateball: Cool :D | 09:38 |

| John__ | Hello, I bought a new laptop with amd gpu and i'm confused about the current state of amd drivers. Can someone explain what are all these drivers, fglrx, ati, amdgpu, amdgpu-pro? I want the best recommended driver for performance | 20:48 |

| diego__ | Hello. I need help with my laptop. It gets turned off when I unplug it, even though on full battery. | 21:28 |
| diego__ | I didn't know what component to report the bug on. Thanks. | 21:29 |
| valorie | diego__: that doesn't sound like a software problem | 21:39 |
| diego__ | Oh. Okay. | 21:44 |
| diego__ | While I don't think the battery has run out, maybe it's not well connected or something. | 21:45 |
| diego__ | I'll explore in that direction. Thank you. | 21:46 |
| valorie | or it is a damaged connector which shorts something as it is pulled out | 21:46 |
| valorie | I've had to replace the battery and the connector part of the cord both, in other computers | 21:46 |
| diego__ | It also misreads the charged level sometimes. | 21:47 |
| valorie | if you can successfully suspend, you might check if that same thing happens if the laptop is suspended | 21:48 |
| valorie | if so, it can't be the software; gotta be hardware | 21:48 |
| diego__ | I'll try that now. Let's see. | 21:49 |
| diego__ | Actually it didn't turn off. One thing that makes it difficult is that it's not consistent on when it does turn off. | 21:51 |
| diego__ | I'll be aware about when that happens and report. Thanks a lot. | 21:52 |
