| BionicMac | Yes. here also. I do want to give vivaldi a shot though. Now it's a clanISH install even though not official. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| mattfly | hey do you have spotify? | 00:00 |
| BionicMac | 24G ram here so I abuse my ff with tabs. | 00:00 |
| BionicMac | yes. | 00:00 |
| mattfly | lol | 00:00 |
| mattfly | hey isnt spotify freezing all the time to you? | 00:00 |
| BionicMac | never | 00:00 |
| BionicMac | but there are several ways to install. | 00:00 |
| mattfly | damn why am I son unlucky :P | 00:01 |
| mattfly | i tried snap | 00:01 |
| mattfly | and ppas | 00:01 |
| mattfly | both have this problem | 00:01 |
| BionicMac | I tried them all. I have to look at my notes to see which I am runngin now. | 00:01 |
| mattfly | im with ppa right now | 00:01 |
| BionicMac | Actually I ended up just using my browser. The audio was far better for me. | 00:01 |
| BionicMac | It was like a volume boost from app to web interface. noticable too. Cleaner and crisper. | 00:02 |
| mattfly | oh i should try that | 00:03 |
| BionicMac | Keep in mind the Linux spotify application is pet project and not considered stable. | 00:03 |
| mattfly | yeah but it worked nice on 16.04 | 00:03 |
| BionicMac | I lov ethe web interface less headache and i can have my Panora or Spotify anytime, anywhere, any OS. =) quickly with no installs or learning curve. | 00:03 |
| mattfly | i cant get how hibernation could work so nice on 17.10 and now only crashes | 00:03 |
| BionicMac | I actually like the web interface better for pandora and spotify. | 00:03 |
| mattfly | any chance the first lts release will be better? | 00:04 |
| mattfly | theres too much to fix from my point of view... | 00:04 |
| BionicMac | the native linux spotify app? | 00:04 |
| BionicMac | I have no idea. | 00:04 |
| mattfly | no the ubuntu lagging | 00:06 |
| mattfly | and hibernation | 00:06 |
| mattfly | its amazing that on the live cd its super fast | 00:06 |
| mattfly | maybe its something i am running | 00:06 |
| mattfly | I have synergy, vscode, thunderbird, lmms with a midi keyborad plugged, firefox, soptify and dolphin open | 00:07 |
| BionicMac | mattfly: https://bionicmac.club/index.php/s/kEwa6JG3ZzJqhZi | 00:19 |
| BionicMac | In case you want to try vivaldi. | 00:19 |
| BionicMac | mattfly: well check your system load with those running and look for the culprit(s). | 00:20 |
| mattfly | my system load? | 00:20 |
| mattfly | no | 00:20 |
| BionicMac | even a good ole' (h)top would work | 00:20 |
| mattfly | its fine | 00:20 |
| mattfly | , im looking on htop | 00:21 |
| BionicMac | what do you see? | 00:21 |
| mattfly | 9 gb used of 16, processors at 10% | 00:21 |
| BionicMac | sounds good | 00:21 |
| mattfly | okay lmms is talking 29 % | 00:21 |
| BionicMac | hmmm | 00:21 |
| mattfly | its the worst there | 00:21 |
| BionicMac | that one is a bugger | 00:21 |
| mattfly | no | 00:21 |
| BionicMac | kill lmms only | 00:21 |
| mattfly | thats normal for lmms | 00:22 |
| BionicMac | lmms has historically been a resource hog. | 00:22 |
| mattfly | and i tried without it | 00:22 |
| mattfly | its not the problem | 00:22 |
| BionicMac | hmm | 00:22 |
| mattfly | do you have virtual box? | 00:23 |
| BionicMac | yes | 00:23 |
| BionicMac | runs fine with the normal lag in vbox itself. doesn't affect the rest of my system. | 00:23 |
| mattfly | maybe was some mess with those kernel modules or something | 00:23 |
| mattfly | now on gnome shell its a bit better | 00:23 |
| mattfly | but if I am on kde its annoying | 00:24 |
| BionicMac | Upgraded my kernel today with the official updates. | 00:24 |
| mattfly | aw me too | 00:24 |
| mattfly | it updated nvidia drivers too | 00:24 |
| mattfly | but right now im using kernel 4.16 | 00:24 |
| BionicMac | Time to grab some food.. be back in minute. | 00:25 |
| BionicMac | You should try it with the official kernel and see what gives. | 00:25 |
| BionicMac | grabbing food... | 00:25 |
| mattfly | yesterday i tried to edit some spreadsheets with libreoffice | 00:25 |
| mattfly | i just had some lag now | 00:25 |
| mattfly | well and i just couldnt, everything got slowed down a lot | 00:26 |
| mattfly | my fans were turnning on all the time | 00:26 |
| BionicMac | oooo vivaldi is sweeeet =0 | 00:45 |

| quidnunc | How do I change display managers? | 06:16 |
| quidnunc | dpkg-reconfigure doesn't seem to work anymore | 06:16 |
| slidinghorn | quidnunc: try sudo update-alternatives --configure x-session-manager | 06:22 |
| quidnunc | --configure? --set-selections? | 06:23 |
| slidinghorn | --config sorry | 06:23 |
| quidnunc | slidinghorn: Says gnome-session | 06:24 |
| quidnunc | slidinghorn: but /etc/X11/default-display-manager says lxde | 06:25 |
| slidinghorn | LXDE isn't a display manager...which DM are you trying to use? | 06:26 |
| quidnunc | gdm | 06:26 |
| slidinghorn | (it *has* a display manager - lxdm) | 06:26 |
| quidnunc | sorry lxdm | 06:27 |
| quidnunc | I meant to say | 06:27 |
| slidinghorn | ...and you have gdm installed, right? | 06:27 |
| quidnunc | I just re-installed gdm3 | 06:27 |
| quidnunc | there doesn't seem to be a package named gdm anymore | 06:27 |
| slidinghorn | ok...if the update-alternatives method doesn't allow you to change it, just edit the /etc/X11/default-display-manager to say /usr/sbin/gdm3 | 06:29 |
| slidinghorn | (that should be the right path) | 06:29 |
| quidnunc | okay, dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 invokes the configuration selector, but I get "gdm.service is not active" | 06:30 |
| quidnunc | ", cannot reload" | 06:30 |
| quidnunc | "invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm3, action 'reload' failed"" | 06:30 |
| slidinghorn | you're on 18.04 right? | 06:30 |
| quidnunc | yes | 06:31 |
| slidinghorn | sudo systemctl enable gdm.service (you may have to disable the lxdm service - I'm not sure) | 06:32 |
| quidnunc | slidinghorn: Seems someone had a similar problem on stackexchange. Rebooting solves it, apparently | 06:34 |
| quidnunc | I'm going to try that | 06:34 |
| quidnunc | Thanks for the help! | 06:34 |
| slidinghorn | good luck! | 06:34 |
| quidnunc | :) | 06:34 |

| katnip | ever try wavebox? | 13:19 |
| lotuspsychje | no? | 13:19 |
| katnip | wavebox.io | 13:20 |
| katnip | my trial ran out and they emailed me for the 20 for a yr, i told them i couldnt afford it right now since i was going thru chemo, they sent an email back and gave me a complimentary copy for a yr and said 'get well from the wavebox team.' so i recommend it. works really great. | 13:23 |
