| TimApple | hello, I noticed snaps don't show up in 'show applications' the only way I can seem to launch them is to go to ubuntu software and launch them from there. This normal? | 16:15 |

| johnny_|_ | Hi. I am trying to connect 2 4k monitors on 17.10. Sometimes I even manage to do that but right now when I connect second monitor the screen is black and I can see mouse cursor both on laptop screen and first external monitor. What to do from here? | 18:11 |
| johnny_|_ | I cannot do anything except hard reset. | 18:12 |
| johnny_|_ | I think xrandr is super buggy. Now it gives me Floating point exception. | 18:18 |
| ducasse | johnny_|_: which graphics drivers? | 18:29 |
| johnny_|_ | ducasse: I am talking about live boot from usb, gpu is 1060 mobile | 18:30 |
| ducasse | you will probably have better luck on a regular install with the right proprietary driver | 18:32 |
| johnny_|_ | ducasse: how can I add proprietary driver? | 18:32 |
| ducasse | install, then choose the driver in the software and updates dialog | 18:33 |
| johnny_|_ | it "hangs" on Started User Manager for UID 121. | 18:45 |
| Bashing-om | !info nvidia-384 | 18:56 |
| ubottu | Package nvidia-384 does not exist in artful | 18:56 |
| Bashing-om | !info nvidia-375 | 18:56 |
| ubottu | nvidia-375 (source: nvidia-graphics-drivers-375): NVIDIA binary driver - version 375.82. In component restricted, is optional. Version 375.82-0ubuntu3 (artful), package size 40559 kB, installed size 161455 kB (Only available for i386; amd64; armhf) | 18:56 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: pastebin - lspci -k|grep -iEA5 'vga|3d' - see what we can do . | 18:57 |
| johnny_|_ | I removed nvidia driver... and can see dekstop again. | 18:59 |
| johnny_|_ | https://paste.debian.net/987313 | 19:01 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: nvidia recommends the 384 verison driver . Available in our trusted PPA . Want to try it and see ? | 19:07 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: can you tell me how to add ppa | 19:10 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Sure . run ' sudo apt purge nvidia* ; sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf 'then run : sudo apt add-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa ; sudo apt update ; sudo apt full-upgrade ; sudo apt-get install nvidia-384 ' is one way to do it . | 19:15 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: thanks, would you also recommend reinstall xserver-xorg after that? | 19:16 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: quick note. I don't have xorg.conf I have xorg.conf.09222017 | 19:18 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: No. re-install of any other components "should" not be required . | 19:19 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Not having the config file might be an issue , as with optimus set up that file IS required ! | 19:20 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: add-repository gives me Invalid operation add-repository | 19:20 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: oh it was just dash instead of whitespace | 19:21 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: typo on my part :( ' sudo add-apt-repository | 19:24 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Once installed I do expect the nvidia installer to create that config file ! | 19:25 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: it doesn't look promising... Screen is blinking. Let me record and read it to you what it says. | 19:27 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: A start job is running for Hold until boot process finishes (20s / no limit) | 19:30 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: SSD .. trim check in progress ?? | 19:31 |
| johnny_|_ | back to blinking Started User Manager for UID 121. | 19:35 |
| johnny_|_ | google gives me that this is some kind of xserver issue | 19:35 |
| johnny_|_ | but xorg.conf file is there | 19:35 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: I tried with slim instead of gdm3 but I get blank page also. | 19:44 |
| Bashing-om | Jikan: show ' dpkg - l | grep -i nvidia ' . | 19:50 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: ^^ sorry . | 19:50 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: with lightdm I can see login but when I try to login I get blank screen for a sec and then redirect back to login screen. | 19:51 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: https://paste.debian.net/987323/ had to retype it but the main thing is there | 19:55 |
| johnny_|_ | lightdm is working with 2 external 4k monitors + laptop's but cannot get into d | 19:58 |
| johnny_|_ | ^^ DE | 19:58 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: ' dpkg - l | grep -i nvidia | nc termbin.com 9999 ' as I want to see it complete . | 19:58 |
| johnny_|_ | http://termbin.com/n10o | 20:00 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: is this normal that xorg is running in failsafe? http://termbin.com/rbfh | 20:03 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: reading. | 20:13 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Let's see if we can see what X is so unhappy about : ' cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 ' . | 20:16 |
| johnny_|_ | http://termbin.com/229l | 20:18 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: ^^ i3 is working :P | 20:18 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: As i3 works, then we know it is config issues in the other DE's at fault . | 20:20 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Huh ?? What are you booting ? " BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz.efi " Looks to be the live environment ?? | 20:22 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: I am booting into persistent partition. | 20:24 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: Sorry then . I do not know that invironment . " 1394.974] (EE) NVIDIA: Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. " But X is not at all happy ! I do not have the experience to know the why here . | 20:25 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: thank you for your time. Really appreciate it. I hope someone can look into that issue and fix it. | 20:27 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: I do not know that there is a "fix" as the live environment by definition is read only . | 20:28 |
| johnny_|_ | Bashing-om: it has persistent partition. It saves whatever you do. | 20:28 |
| Bashing-om | johnny_|_: More like it can save some things . How it relates to kernel things is a lot different . But as I say . I do not have the experience to know . | 20:31 |
