sorinello_smerz, what's wrong with non LTS releases ?11:20
sorinello_I am using xubuntu since 14.04 and I always migrated to the latest release after 1-2 days after release. Never had any issues11:21
smerzi prefer older releases for stability11:31
smerzeven LTS i would wait like 6 months before upgrading. but that's personal experience/preference11:31
knomesorinello_, nothing necessarily; whether you should use them or not depends on what you are looking for11:38
sorinello_knome exactly, but in my opinion unless you are not using on any critical system, you shouldn't worry about being on an older versions. The benefits of newer software outnumber the benefits of having an older version in most cases11:55
smerzthat's a matter of opinion :-)11:58
Spasssorinello_: Some people don't need to have the newest version of software (not counting security upgrades of course) and don't need to upgrade whole system two times a year12:00
Spassyou're a Linux enthusiast so it's fun for you, but it may not be fun for everyone12:01
sorinello_well yes, I am en enthusiast. most of the release don't come with nothing new, but this, latest, 17.04 for example comes with a greatly improved version of terminal, which I already enjoy and use12:02
Spassplus, I have some problems/bug on 17.04 which aren't a big problem for me, but I would not recommend 17.04 for a new user, I would recommend 16.04.212:02
kblinhi folks13:39
kblinI'm running 16.04 on my dell XPS laptop, and am pretty happy with it in general, but there's one bug that is really, really annoying:13:40
kblinwhen suspending the laptop, sometimes (like once every week or two) after logging back in all my open windows are closed13:41
kblinit looks like they were killed, because e.g. firefox comes back up apologizing for having crashed13:41
pmjdebruijnyou mean ,as in the applicatinos aren't running anymore13:41
kblinyeah,13:42
pmjdebruijndid you check dmesg?13:42
kblinI basically log in to what looks like a blank desktop13:42
pmjdebruijnis there any correlation to how long you've been logged out?13:42
kblinbut it's certainly not a restart, at least according to uptime13:42
kblinnope13:42
pmjdebruijnany errors in dmesg?13:42
kblinhmm, nothing immediately around the wakeup log entry13:44
kblinbut a bit later there's something about drm being stuck on the render ring13:44
kblinI guess that'd be it, then13:45
kblindidn't think of checking the kernel log, it looked like a userspace issue :)13:45
kblinhm, annoying13:53
kblinthe kernel message tells me to use the latest kernel13:53
kbliner no, the kernel message tells me to report the bug13:53
kblinthe bug report guidelines say "just use the latest kernel"13:53
pmjdebruijnhuh?14:05
pmjdebruijncan you pastebin it?14:05
pmjdebruijnwhich kernel do you have14:05
pmjdebruijnsince 16.04 can use the hardware enablement stacks14:06
pmjdebruijnhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack14:06
kblinpmjdebruijn: yeah, I found that one as well and just rebooted to get to the latest regular kernel so I could clear out some space in /boot14:08
kblinkernels have gotten rather large in the past years, and my probably too conservatively-spaced /boot can only hold two at a time14:09
kblinlet's try on the HWE kernel and xorg\14:17
pmjdebruijnkblin: uhm? only two?14:49
pmjdebruijnpresumably you have a rediculously small /boot?14:49
pmjdebruijn1GB is generally fine for /boot14:49
