[00:15] <Taggnostr4> clivejo, I tried installing smem and it says: kernel dynamic memory      13063940    1006612   12057328 (used/cache/noncache)
[00:17] <clivejo> what units are those?
[00:18] <Taggnostr4> clivejo, bytes, so it seems lilke the kernel is using 13GB
[00:18] <clivejo> holy cow
[00:18] <Taggnostr4> userspace memory            2062816     424368    1638448
[00:18] <Taggnostr4> and this is the userspace memory, more in line with what I see with ksysguard
[00:18] <clivejo> what kernel is installed?
[00:19] <Taggnostr4> 4.13.0-16-generic
[00:19] <Taggnostr4> maybe it's related to that wifi issue I mentioned earlier (it also causes the pc to hang for 10-15mins on shutdown), that is supposedly fixed in the upcoming 4.13.8
[00:20] <clivejo> there is a bug which is installing low latency kernel on upgrade for some strange reason
[00:21] <Taggnostr4> this is a fresh install, I had the same issue after the upgrade
[00:21] <clivejo> in ksysguard do you have All processes drop down selected?
[00:22] <Taggnostr4> yes
[00:22] <clivejo> have you an ethernet connection you could try, and turn off wifi via kill switch?
[00:23] <Taggnostr4> no ethernet connection here, but I could try moving the pc somewhere where I can get it
[00:24] <Taggnostr4> turning off the wifi from the tray doesn't work too well, last time I tried I had to hard-reset the machine
[00:24] <clivejo> just be interesting to see if it is wifi causing it
[00:25] <Taggnostr4> I have a key combination to disable the wifi from the keyboard but I haven't tried it
[00:25] <Taggnostr4> you think it will release all the ram once I disable the wifi?
[00:34] <clivejo> no, but if the kill switch is off and you reboot
[00:34] <clivejo> might not allocate the same memory
[00:36] <Taggnostr4> yes, except that it takes a while to start using up all the memory, and I can't leave the pc there
[00:36] <Taggnostr4> the weird thing is that once it used up most of the ram it stops there
[00:37] <Taggnostr4> so it doesn't keep leaking forever
[00:38] <Taggnostr4> even though it seems to slowly increase if there is still memory available
[00:40] <Taggnostr4> slabtop also says Active / Total Size (% used)       : 11934595.91K / 11938247.77K (100.0%), but I'm not sure what it means
[00:41] <Taggnostr4> the total size keeps increasing, it's at 11942xxx now
[09:28] <ForceRecon> good morning...
[09:28] <user|70408> Hello
[09:28] <user|70408> Anyone would like to help installing kbuntu
[09:29] <user|70408> I've downloaded ISO and used unetbootin to make bootable usb
[09:29] <user|70408> But after choosing boot from USB it's says "It doesn't contain operating system"
[09:32] <ForceRecon> I guess the question would be is there anything on the usb?  are there files on it?
[09:32] <user|70408> yes
[09:33] <user|70408> do i need to change something in bios?
[09:34] <ForceRecon> yes, that would be a start to go into the bios and make sure that the boot sequence is set
[09:34] <ForceRecon> maybe USB, CD, then actual hard drive
[09:34] <ForceRecon> if it is set to start hard drive first it will never read the usb
[09:35] <user|70408> ok, i'll try that thanks
[09:35] <ForceRecon> good luck.. I hope that easily solves your problem
[09:36] <ForceRecon> some times you can also hit f1 or some f key to change your boot choice on machine start.. depends on age of machine though.. not sure if you have that option
[12:26] <BluesKaj> Howdy folks
[12:27] <ForceRecon> Hey morning BluesKaj
[12:27] <ForceRecon> nice to see ya
[12:28] <BluesKaj> hey ForceRecon, how's it going?
[12:30] <ForceRecon> well.. I still have all my appendages... so I have that going for me
[12:31] <BluesKaj> :-)
[12:34]  * BluesKaj needs more coffee
[12:37]  * ForceRecon needs to get some sleep.
[12:38] <ForceRecon> I did not sleep at all last night.. been up basically since Sunday Morning.. I'm crashing... I have one hour and 23 minutes to go then I can take a break.. not sure if I am going to make it reading these man pages
[12:38] <BluesKaj> what's keeping you up?
[12:51] <ForceRecon> not sure... ...  actually wish I knew
[14:01] <daum_> any idea why it seems when i plug in my display port (t460 thinkpad) it recognizes it in the display configuration but then keeps resizing it/dropping it, etc. and makes the computer lag a ton.  looking at my xorg.0.log i see http://dpaste.com/1MTF0B9 constantly scrolling
[14:01] <daum_> when i unplug it, it stops
[14:02] <daum_> i have my hdmi port already plugged into a monitor of the same size
[14:05] <daum_> it seemeds to be working ok until last week - left my laptop plugged into both monitors for the entire week then came back and have had osme issues since
[14:16] <daum_> weird finally just went back
[14:24] <termy> hello, i have a little question. Why discover shom me  not that a new release ist available? the update from kubuntu 16.10 to 17.04  make i manual with thedo-release-upgrade, because ther was the same problem
[14:55] <christian_> hi how to change Déjà Dup in german?

[16:16] <chcknrub> my plasma memory leak is gone
[16:16] <chcknrub> ^_^ thanks kde
[18:06] <Sircle> I cannot increase font size of firefox, chromium menus and the place where I type in xchat. I have tried system settings > fonts and increased them. It affects other places but not the mentioned. Any clue?
[18:15] <ForceRecon> Change your resolution to 125% and leave everything default
[22:37] <ForceRecon> Hey you guys..
[22:37] <ForceRecon> can I ask a serious personal question and maybe get some feedback?
