[12:47] <lapion> vkareh Yes I found `mate-power-statistics` and I have to execute it manually, it's is not opened from the battery menu anymore
[14:26] <sixwheeledbeast> An op can invite sigyn BTW
[16:42] <Fretegi> morning
[16:42] <Fretegi> so has there been any development regarding optimus implementation on mate 18 yet?
[16:44] <Fretegi> so far loving ubunt-mate 18, but really need to thoroughly kill my nvidia card while traveling..  the old prime method fro 16.04 just does not cut it
[16:47] <diogenes_> Fretegi, why not nouveau?
[16:49] <Fretegi> diogenes_, well was not wanting to sacrifice performance if possible, but i am willing to compromise there.  in fact nouveau is what i am running now in an attempt to see if it corrects the battery life issue
[16:49] <Fretegi> so far not
[16:50] <Fretegi> on ubuntu 16.04 when in intel graphics mode i had about 5 hrs of battery, on nvidia about 2 hours.  i seem to have 2 hours no matter what on this thing, intel or nvidia, prop driver or noeaveau
[16:51] <Fretegi> doesnt appear that anuything is sutting off the discreet gpu
[16:51] <diogenes_> Fretegi, there is a possibility to boost nouveau performance
[16:51] <Fretegi> heck i would settle for battery at the moment
[16:52] <Fretegi> in all honestly i have not used the nvidia discreet gpu for months
[16:52] <diogenes_> how old is the battery?
[16:52] <Fretegi> and as long as it will drive external displays, im happy
[16:52] <Fretegi> new laptop
[16:52] <Fretegi> well..  8 months
[16:52] <Fretegi> just switched to 18.04 2 days ago
[16:53] <diogenes_> maybe it's battery fault?
[16:53] <Fretegi> perhaps
[16:53] <Fretegi> but it shows 97% capacity and last weekend i had 5 hours of battery time :)
[16:54] <Fretegi> since going to 18.04, 2 hours
[16:55] <diogenes_> Fretegi, i've seen people complaining about the poor quality batteries that start to loose the capacity after some 8 months of use
[16:55] <diogenes_> but there is only one way to find it out for sure
[16:55] <Fretegi> diogenes_, i understand.  but to have capacity cut to less than half in days, suspiciously around an update time...
[16:56] <Fretegi> i just tried reinstalling nvidia prop drivers, brb
[21:13] <Jesperson> Hey guys, can someone here help me with an issue? I
[21:13] <Jesperson> I'm freezing every now and then from seemingly nowhere and I can't figure out why...
[21:15] <Jesperson> I can still move my mouse-pointer around though.. I saw somewhere that it might be an issue with the power-delivery for the Ryzen APU/CPU but I'm not sure how I'd fix that if that is indeed the problem
[21:31] <Jesperson> Hi, sorry if someone responded and I missed it - my computer froze again... I
[21:31] <Jesperson> I'm on my windows partition now so I might hopefully not freeze any more
[21:40] <diogenes_> Jesperson, come back tomorrow if no one replies
[21:46] <Jesperson> diogenes_: yeah I'm planning on looking for answers every once in a while at least - seeing as I quite need the computer to function well haha
[22:06] <b4udv8> say I want to upgrade irssi - what folder to extract to?
[22:06] <b4udv8> in M$ it just overwrites the old version true?
[22:18] <sixwheeledbeast> Jesperson: What system?
[22:21] <Jesperson> sixwheeledbeast: I recently bought a HP Envy x360 with a Ryzen 2700U + Vega 10
[22:22] <sixwheeledbeast> Using amdgpu? checked dmesg and/or syslog?
[22:23] <Jesperson> I couldnt actually find a way to reliably install amdgpu, have not checked dmesg nor syslog.
[22:23] <Jesperson> And am on the Windows partition right now since it doesn't full-freeze when it hiccups
[22:26] <sixwheeledbeast> you should check your syslog for output after a lockup.
[22:37] <Jesperson> I will do that the next time, I think it should be what I read about the power being "incorrect" at like p6(?) but I'll see what I can find tomorrow - thanks for the input!
[22:47] <sixwheeledbeast> I have had similar lockups since upgrading to 18.04, I suspected DPM but haven't had an issue in a month or so.
[23:25] <swift110> hey all
