puxavidaI've got geforce mx150 on a laptop, hdmi to 4k display but only getting 1920x1080 from nvidia driver (not noveau).  Is there a way to get 3840x2160 on xubuntu?00:02

margaritamikeIs there anything I can do about my VM? When I boot up, before it can get to the login screen, it just says "started bpfilter". This is lubuntu00:08
puxavidaThe dell laptop says it has nividia mx 150 and intel vga.  How can I tell which video is the hdmi port.  Intel uhd graphics 620.00:08
OerHeksmargaritamike, this answer makes me ask: wayland session in thet vm ? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1084550/ubuntu-18-10-stuck-on-started-bpfilter-while-booting00:14
margaritamikeThe only way I am able to get to grub is if I type in the wrong password to decrypt my hd. From there, I typed WaylandEnable=false00:22
margaritamikeI now see more text after a reboot, but it still stops at "Started bpfilter"00:22
margaritamike@OerHeks00:22
margaritamikeOh actually that was from me pressing Esc at the lubuntu loading frame. If I just let it load, it only says started bpfilter00:25

dreamon__hello my xubuntu automounts every usbstorage device I plugged in. but I dont want this behavior. tried to handle this by disabling as much automount options I could find. But still automount goes on. it Mounts to /media/usb1 /media/usb2 /media/usb3 ..01:35
dreamon__how can I find out what process is the issue01:36
dreamon__maybe udisks?01:36
=== dreamon__ is now known as dreamon
EriC^^dreamon: i think it's a file manager thing01:43
compdoc"In gconf-editor, look under /apps/nautilus/preferences. There should be a setting called "media_automount". Ensure that it is checked. There is also an option called "media_automount_open" that you can set if you wish it to open the media in nautilus automatically in addition to mounting it."01:45

EriC^^thrizian: try logging in?01:47
thrizianwhat error should i get if it is disabled? Because i tried that and it prompted me for a password01:48
dreamonOerHeks, it outputs false. I disabled all the gui automount stuff I could find. But still it mounts :(01:49
dreamonIm on Xubuntu18.0401:49
dreamonIn thunar I also disabled any automount stuff01:49
dreamonI think udisk2 is the issue → https://askubuntu.com/questions/652905/how-to-disable-usb-automount-in-xubuntu-14-0401:51

dreamonEriC^^, uninstall udisks2 would uninstall good apps too. like k3b, brasero.. :(02:03
dreamonEriC^^, any idea what I can do to stop automount02:03
EriC^^margaritamike: in the vm go to settings > storage plug the iso in IDE and boot it02:03
EriC^^dreamon: try first to kill that gvfs and see if it stops the automounting then work from there02:03
EriC^^/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-udisks2-volume-monitor02:04
margaritamikeEriC^^: virtual hard disk or new optical drive?02:05
EriC^^margaritamike: optical drive02:05
dreamonEriC^^, Yes that does the trick. Now it dont automount anymore ;) But thunar dont recognize the device anymore. earlier days I could after clicking on that device mount it. now its empty.02:08
dreamonbut think it better than automount it on this slow userspace thing02:09
EriC^^dreamon: ok so now check gvfs for its auto mount settings02:09
EriC^^or maybe something else is calling it too02:10
dreamonwhere can I find those settings?02:10
EriC^^read about how gvfs works, does it do automounting?02:10
EriC^^dreamon: is it just 1 usb? i think "udisks" if you press on the cog for settings it has a "automount" option you can disable02:12
EriC^^it's filesystem specific though02:13
EriC^^i think udisks is doing the automounting or requesting it or something and gvfs is mounting02:14
dreamondont know where.. reading manuals to find out. since a few weeks it mount everything to /media/usb1-9 it didnt do before.02:15
dreamonall usb device were outmounted not only device.02:16
dreamonsometimes it mounted same devices twice.02:16
EriC^^dreamon: i think you can make a udev rule that tells it to "do nothing" when a usb is plugged in02:16
EriC^^cause udev -> udisks -> dbus -> gvfs02:17

GovuUbuntu LTS on Lenovo Yoga 500-14IBD with ALPS touchpad, pointer speed has issues. Horizontal movement is good but vertical movement is slow, really slow. If I draw circle, pointer moves in oval shape.07:35
tomreynGovu: have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection and see if you can or want to report a bug, or whether there already is a bug report you can subscribe to (and maybe it has a workaround listed as well)07:45
Govutomreyn Thanks a lot. I will go through the link you posted.07:49
tomreynGovu: you're welcome. if you can tell me the "I: Bus=..." and "N: Name=..." lines from your /proc/bus/input/devices i can help search for matching bug reports.07:51
Govutomreyn Right now I am on Windows, let me quickly boot up Ubuntu and I will post it.07:56
FleuvHello, my wireless or wired connection stops working every time I close the lit of my laptop (probably also when I put my pc to hibernate). When I do this and my laptop is not connected to wifi or lan than the corresponding device will stop working. Thus far only a reboot is able to fix the issue are there any other work arround?08:03

Fleuvtomreyn, it seems like it my laptop booted without eth0: jan 18 07:52:56 my.hostname ifup[1606]: Cannot find device "eth0"08:32
tomreynGovu: they may refer to other ubuntu releases (also some which are no longer supported), but have a look as to whether you find one which is very similar. or just reoport a new one using "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-input-libinput" or "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-input-synaptics"08:32
tomreynFleuv: looking at your log now. normally, on ubuntu 18.04, network interfaces are renamed, no longer use the old ethN format names08:33
FleuvOoh okey, have a look at near line 153008:34
tomreynFleuv: do you have network configuratiosn in /etc/network/interfaces ?08:36
FleuvYes its on the bottom of my first paste: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9FqKnm2Y55/08:36
tomreynFleuv: oh, but this is a laptop you use with a graphical display, right? why dont you use network manager?08:37
FleuvNot sure what you mean with that tomreyn. I thought I was using network manager though.08:37
tomreynFleuv: network manager won't be managing your network interface if configurations for the same network interface are found in /etc/network/interfaces08:39

lotuspsychjeGovu: from a terminal: ubuntu-bug your-package08:50
tomreynFleuv: so you can see there that network manager does not manage your ethernet nic08:50
tomreynFleuv: if you want ti managed by NM, remove the configurations off /etc/network/interfaces08:51

FleuvOkay but usually if I now reboot it starts working again08:57

tomreynFleuv: okay, this is really not about bringing things back after lid closing, yet, this is just to make sure you can manage everything from network manager08:58

Govulotuspsychje I am trying to follow steps in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection under section "In case at least one of the Touchpad features work, but does not work correctly and as expected". In ubuntu-bug your-package, I don't know what's your-package that handles touchpad. Isn't it the kernel? So, I don't know how to do what you h09:02
Govuave suggested.09:02
Fleuvhi, back once again09:03
Fleuvtomreyn, i tried the following and NM seems to be functioning perfectly: boot without wifi on or cable connected, wake up from sleep mode without wifi on or cable connected. After boot or wake up it started the wifi as well as the wired connection without any problems.09:05
Fleuvtomreyn, this is probably the fix i have been searching for, I guess the problem should be fixed now. Thank you very much!09:08
tomreynFleuv: good, can you show "lshw -C network --numeric" now? i still haven'T seen this for your NIC09:08

emilspis there a way to follow new kernel log messages on 14.04? dmesg seems to not have support for --follow/-w flags.10:40
emilspboy did 14.04 suck10:41
EriC^^emilsp: it was dmesg --tail or something10:41

TJ-emilsp: I think easiest would be "tail -f /var/log/kern.log"10:53

uioHi, is it possible to password protect a usb that I could use on my Linux system and that I could use on Windows computers for which I do not have admin passes?11:17
TJ-uio: sounds like you're inferring it'd be encrypted in some way11:18
uioTJ-: Sure. Or just so some random person can't find it and open all the files. I use a usb for work and I always worried it'll be stolen or something and I'll lose sensitive infos.11:19
uioTJ-: Ecyption or password protected.... or maybe that's the same thing??11:19

fubTJ-: (regarding the udev rule because of the eth firmware): how do I find out if my systems renames the interface at boot?11:21
fubor maybe using the ethtool at this time is too early to set the mode?11:21
fuboh wait, when is this udev rule executed?11:22
fubbecause I always have my laptop booted (and logged out), then I plug in the docking station.11:22
fubso its not present at boot time11:22
TJ-fub: We need to capture the full udev activity when the device is inserted11:22
fubTJ-: device is inserted = eth cable plugged in or the docking station plugged in?11:23
TJ-fub: udev receives events from the kernel when device status changes (add/change/remove etc) and executes all matching rules11:23
fubok11:23
fubhow can I watch/monitor/log this events?11:23
TJ-fub: you can test your idea by replacing the ethtool command with one that simply creates a tell-tale file e.g. "touch /device_rule_triggered"11:23
TJ-then, after inserting the device, if that file exists you know the rule is triggering11:24

Now I have only a 1024x768 resolution. `lspci` says it’s a “00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 03)” and it worked fine on at12:12

peeyI got a prompt saying "A new LTS version is available, do you want to upgrade?" and I clicked "Yes". But I want to cancel it now, is there a way? I think it might be in the process of just downloading right now, though I don't see any window, everything's happening in the background, presumably12:24
vltvlt: Yes, adding "video=SVIDEO-1:d" works. No "nomodeset" needed anymore.12:25
lotuspsychjepeey: braking an lts upgrade is not a really good idea12:27
peeylatuspsychje: oops. I just found the software updater window, and it had a stop button, so I clikcked it.12:28
lotuspsychjepeey: oh, you didnt actually start the upgrade yet?12:29
peeylotuspsychje: I'd clicked yes on the prompt and it asked for my password, but I'm guessing that it had to download things before it could proceed with the upgrade12:29
lotuspsychjepeey: it probably updated update-manager, can you recall that?12:30
lotuspsychjepeey: maybe take a look in your dpkg logs, you can see there what it installed and whatnot12:31
peeylotuspsychje: I'll do that12:32
peeyIt did change my background back to the ubuntu default background, and my background changing app (variety) doesn't work anymore. I think I might have to log out and log back in again.12:33
lotuspsychjepeey: whats the reason you deciced to cancel an upgrade?12:34
peeylotuspsychje: It comes with the overhead of fixing broken things and getting familiar with a new dekstop environment. I'd do it later when I have more time.12:37

kur1jI'm having some issues getting a 10Gb LOM to auto negotiate at 10G. It will only auto negoatiate at 1G. If I do `ethtools -s <device> advertise 0x1000`, it will de-link and then negotiate at 10G perfectly fine.15:15

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1291660 in linux (Ubuntu) "Intel ixgbe driver doesn't work at 10Gb speeds" [Medium,Confirmed]15:17
elias_aelh: Is it possible your root partition would be full after the update?15:18
elhelias_a: there's only 1 partition and busy only 21%15:19
pantatoanyone else use steam stream on here to play on ubuntu from their windows machine?15:20
kur1jlordcirth_: I don't think thats it.15:20
lordcirth_kur1j, are you using the ixgbe driver?15:21
kur1jyes, but I've got another machine running 16.04 using ixgbe driver without this issue15:21
elias_aelh: Standalone Ubuntu without separate swap partition?15:22
kur1jlordcirth_: I've also tried Fedora 29, and it has the same issue15:22
tomreynthere are definitely systems which work fine with ixgbe at 10 GbE15:22
=== capella is now known as capella|away
kur1jtomreyn: I agree, but I can't determine why this one in particular wouldn't15:23
tomreynkur1jfedora probably had a newer kernel? which ones have you tried so far?15:23
kur1jtomreyn: Fedora 2915:24
kur1jI also tried updating the ixgbe driver15:24
elhelias_a: Disk with 3 partitions: 1. Filesystem 2. Extended partition 3. Swap partition15:24
kur1jno dice15:25
tomreynkur1j: tried a bios or NIC firmware upgrade?15:25
kur1jyup, tried both15:25
kur1jso we have two machine, one  (working) has an x99 chipset, with a LOM Intel x550 running 16.04, it negotiates fine. We have another machine with an x299 chipset LOM Intel x550 running 18.04 and will only auto negotiate to 1Gb15:27
=== sinner is now known as Guest17325
kur1jI can't put 16.04 on the x299 chipset because I get tons of errors with video driver support issues15:27
kur1jand it won't even boot15:27
tomreynkur1j: apparently fedora 29 comes with linux 4.18  (answering my earlier question)15:27
ioriaelh, would be more clear if you paste  sudo parted -ls15:28
elias_aelh: Filesystem is not a partition. I suspect your partition no1 is your root partition and it is too full for the os to function.15:28
kur1johh sorry, didn't realize you were asking about the kernel15:28
kur1jbut you are correct15:28
kur1jWe have a mixture of Intel x540, Intel i350 LOMs and PCIe based NICs in machiens and they all work fine, negotiating properly15:28
elias_aelh: Are you able to open terminal? What is the output of command df?15:29
kur1jOddly enough, if I run a cable directly to another one of the machine with a 10Gb NIC, it will auto negotiate to 10G15:29
tomreynnp ;) ubuntu 18.04 comes with 4.15, 4.18 is available via !hwe15:29
kur1jtomreyn: yeah based on my experiement with fedora I don't think the kernel is at fault15:30
kur1jwell i should say, it doesn't fix the issue, I guess the problem still could be in the kernel?15:31
tomreynkur1j: could be, or it could be broken cables15:31
kur1jtomreyn: same exact cable plugged into working machine, move it to this machine, doesn't work15:31
kur1jon that very same cable, if I force it to 10G with the ethtool command, it works perfectly fine15:32
tomreynkur1j: but when you say it fails to negociate 10 GbE at boot and falls back to 1, but then you can manually make it renegociate to 10 GBe, this sounds more like a firmware or drive rissue.15:32
tomreynright15:33
kur1jif I use that very same cable and plug it directly into the computer with a 10G card, it will negotiate fine15:33
kur1jwhich could indicate a switch problem, but we have like 15 other devices plugged up to the switch and have 0 issues15:33
coconutlotuspsychje: nvidia recommends driver 410.93, which is in the ubuntu ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa. (410.93-0ubuntu1). Can i expect this video card to work now? (Nvidia Quadro P3200 w/6GB GDDR5 OR Nvidia Quadro P4200 w/8GB GDDR5).15:33

memeemeeeooohhhkay-- I've been struggling with this for a while now and I need help: my laptop is freezing and I'm totally baffeled as to why. I've tried fresh install of Kubuntu 18.04 a fresh install of Lubuntu 18.10 and it keeps happening! there's nothing showing up around the time of the freeze in journalctl I used to think it was happening only when the computer was idle for a while, but I was working on it this15:48
memeemeeemorning and it froze right in the middle of a session. I've not seen it freeze when I'm running arch (noX), nor Windows7 and It's also never happened when my laptop was not docked (I have a Lenovo series 3 dock)15:48

kur1jI ran that utility and upgraded it15:53
kur1jnot sure where to see that version15:53
memeemeeei did lubuntu 18.1015:54
ioriamemeemeee, i'd try with 18.0415:54
memeemeeeeven though the freeze has been showing up since 16.04?15:55
lordcirth_memeemeee, hmm, I've seen freezes when *not* plugged in due to cpu governor problems, which I worked around with setting "performance"15:55
lordcirth_Freezing only when it *is* plugged in is interesting15:55
elhioria: I try to recall, but I don't remember...15:55
ioriaelh, are you logged in console (tty) atm ?15:56
tomreynkur1j: me nether, we'd need to know how to calculate the clear text version number from 0x80000d04 (as given in the ethtool -i output you posted)15:56
elhioria: no, just terminal15:56
ioriaelh, in what session ? unity15:57
ioria?15:57
elhioria: yes, unity15:57

ioriaelh,   sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade15:57
memeemeeeioria: I've now had the problem in kubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and lubuntu 18.10 you really think lubuntu 18.04 is worth the time to try out? is there some other logs that I should be checking? or hardware test i should run?15:58
elhioria: 0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.15:59
ioriamemeemeee, maybe not, but all those distros are kde based (yes, lubu 18.10 is kde based)15:59

elhioria: http://dpaste.com/26Y3KQC16:01
memeemeeelordcirth_: the dock has a special i/o interface which is why I mention it. the other thing about these freezes is that they seem to happen overnight. but that could just be coincidal16:01
tomreynkur1j: ok. something else you could try is switching from uefi to legacy bios or the other way around if you have this choice (for testing). but this is just cross-testing, doesn't really fix anything. another approach you can talke is to increase the drivers' verbosity, it supports 17 debug levels  (0..16)16:01
lordcirth_memeemeee, perhaps you could switch to a tty, run dmesg -w, and leave it overnight?16:02
lordcirth_It might manage to log something before freezing16:02
kur1jtomreyn: what would UEFI vs legacy boot do?16:02
=== Guest43953 is now known as philb
=== philb is now known as Guest69319
tomreynkur1j: different hardware initialization, i guess, just adding more variance. i'm not sure it would achieve much.16:04
memeemeeeo man ioria, I didn't realize lubu 18.10 was kde based. I was trying for something lean but i'm not super fond of gnome or unity so I figured LXQT would be a good fit for me16:05
kur1jtomreyn: fair enough16:05
memeemeeelordcirth_: I like that Idea. and that might catch stuff that's not going into journalctl?16:06

ollehartomreyn: We've been working with a move to a new server, maybe we messed something up during.16:15
tomreynollehar: can't load class sounds more like you'Re missing some php module(s) or misplayed some files of your web application16:16

OerHekson launchpad you could find the source and build details for that package22:26

murthysparr: can you tell me the software name?22:27
sparri3 or i3-wm22:27

azizLIGHTwhy would i get a gambas3 ppa? is it some dependency for some other program i have22:29
OerHekshttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/i3-wm22:29
murthysparr: i3 is a meta-package pointing to i3-wm22:29
tomreynazizLIGHT: any ppa's you have you have manually configured.22:30
azizLIGHTcould adding 1 ppa, in turn, put other ppas there during install22:30
murthysparr: do you want to build and install the software or do you want to build a deb package?22:31
azizLIGHTor are all ppa added manually 1 by 122:31
TJ-azizLIGHT: in theory, packages could include files dropped in /etc/apt/apt.sources.d/22:32
tomreynazizLIGHT: any software you install or run as root could theoretically setup additional ppas. but doing so without your expressed intent / content would be very wrong.22:32
murthytomreyn: chrome does that22:32
murthytomreyn: It adds google's repo to the list22:32

murthyazizLIGHT: no22:33
tomreynmurthy: then it's good that chrome is not in ubuntu22:33
azizLIGHTthat is messed up22:33

ponydoes chromium do the same?22:34
SlidingHornpony: chromium doesn't use google's repos, so no.22:34

xrandrsparr: Don't use me on your displays.....I'm not that pretty lmao :P :P22:39
murthysome one got booted, noob mistake22:39
murthyno warning at all? scarry22:39
murthyscary22:40
sparrI have disconnected every peripheral except a single HDMI connected external monitor. When I do `xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto` or any other attempt to configure that display I get "xrandr: Configure crtc 1 failed". There are more steps before and after now in the chain of failures I've been encountering but I'd like to try to address this state because it's the one I can interact with the easiest.22:40
sparrxrandr: you're the best I've got :p22:43
murthysparr: I have no idea regarding this, wait here for some time and someone with knowledge could help you, If not try again tomorrow. There is a user named Blueskaj he may be able to help you tomorror22:43
murthytomorrow22:43
xrandrsparr: awww.... *flattered*22:43
deependsparr: try adding --verbose to that command to get more error output?22:43
murthysparr: ya xrandr could help you22:43
TJ-sparr: that crtc message usually indicates an internal problem in the driver. I've dealt with several of those over time. Usually its internal data-structure corruption.22:44
xrandrActually I really can't. I usually autodetect all that stuff22:44
TJ-sparr: do you see accompanying messages in the kernel log?22:44
sparrdeepend: I have many times, it's not especially informative22:45
deepend:C22:45
azizLIGHTgot rid of that weird packagecloud.io jessie ppa... it was slack22:45
azizLIGHTi deleted /etc/apt/sources.list.d/slack.list22:46
azizLIGHTthats how you do it, correct?22:46
sparrdeepend: https://gist.github.com/sparr/1bceb6f9a27f3401d0d165416772e45322:46
sparrTJ-: I strongly suspect an internal driver problem.22:46
deependyou sure HDMI-1 is the correct name?22:46
deependnot like HDMI-0 or some such?22:47
sparrdeepend: very sure. had a working config with that monitor very recently.22:47
sparrlike, an hour ago22:47
deependand it didn't change when you unplugged the other screens?22:48
sparrTJ-: not when I try the xrandr, or when the problem begins, but later if I put the computer to sleep and wake it up I expect X to crash as it has before. dmesg will report "[drm:intel_display_resume [i915]] *ERROR* Restoring old state failed with -22" when that happens22:48
sparrdeepend: it did not22:48
sparrHDMI-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)22:49
sparr   2560x1440     74.60 +  59.9522:49
sparretc etc22:49
sparrbefore I disconnected everything to troubleshoot, after the problem started, there was a very specific and repeatable failure mode that was much weirder22:50
tomreynazizLIGHT: correctly you'd also purge the package sinstalled from there, and remove the apt repository signing keys22:51
deependwhat happens if you replace the auto flag with specific mode?22:51
sparrsame thing22:52
puxavidaI've testing zfs on ubuntu and with raid 10 (4 disks) you can start with 1 disk, add another to create a raid 1, then add 2 more to create a raid 10.  But if you take the disks out and try to use them as one again, it doesn't like that.  It wants at least 1 disk from the second raid 1 set.  Can you tell it to go back to no raid10 and then no raid1 to just be a single disk again?22:52
sparrfor any specific mode22:52
TJ-sparr: the Intel i915 driver has got distinctly buggy over recent times. Does this happen after a cold boot and *before* doing an S3 suspend?22:52
sparrand for long complicated configurations that worked an hour ago and include position, rotation, etc22:52
sparrTJ-: no. everything works fine on a cold boot. everything also works fine after X dies and restarts. the problems seem to be restricted to after the first suspend+wake and before X dies on a future suspend+wake22:53
sparrshould I be trying the non-modesetting driver?22:53
azizLIGHTtomreyn: thats a step i had totally forgot: removing the signing keys of old ppas... i probably have tons of old ones now22:53
TJ-sparr: thought so... ACPI issue in all likelyhood. Are you using an acpi_osi workaround?22:54
tomreynazizLIGHT: yours is probably not the only system with this issue.22:54
sparrTJ-: I haven't done anything special with ACPI yet22:55
TJ-sparr: I'd strongly recommend trying that first, it could save you a lot of grief. http://iam.tj/prototype/enhancements/Windows-acpi_osi.html22:55
OerHekssparr,  that funny issue again, and what did you do the last time to fix this with DP ?22:55
sparrOerHeks: eventually X errors out and restarts, or I reboot, and it all works again for a while22:56
TJ-sparr: if you test that I'll dig into the i915 source-code to determine what causes error -2222:56
OerHeks" I have resolved my monitor problem from last night. The root cause was bandwidth limits on the USB3.1-over-USBC port leading to my dock, which capped out"22:58
OerHeksis this also connected through your dock?22:58
azizLIGHTcan i leave /etc/apt/sources.list.d/something.list.save while deeleting something.list22:58
azizLIGHTas a way to remember i had something like that there22:59
sparrTJ-: ok, that seemed to add 'acpi_osi=! "acpi_osi=Windows 2017"' to my kernel options22:59
azizLIGHTor must both be deleted22:59
azizLIGHTsomething.list and something.list.save22:59
sparrOerHeks: I am using the dock when the problem starts, but removing the dock during troubleshooting right now. I am no longer using two displays through the dock due to the bandwidth limitation22:59
sparrazizLIGHT: you can leave the .save I think22:59
sparrTJ-: ok, I shall reboot with those two new kernel options and try to reproduce the problem now. That is the next step?23:02
sparrthe formatting seems weird23:02
tomreynazizLIGHT: you can keep .save, it'll be ignored.23:02
azizLIGHTthanks got it23:03
leonardus<tomreyn> leonardus: i even got it on this screen shot https://i.imgur.com/fdZSuti.png23:04
leonardusI don't see anything out of the ordinary there.23:04
TJ-sparr: yes, that is correct23:04
TJ-sparr: the -22 is EINVAL ... trying to figure out which code causes it23:05
tomreynleonardus: good :)23:05
leonardushm?23:06
sparrTJ-: ok, rebooting now. before I go, here's some dmesg output with drm debug turned on prompted by #intel-gfx: https://gist.github.com/sparr/6d11064c42785bbb646fa63f1263560523:07
tomreynleonardus: well with the browser window positioned at some spots on my desktop i guet these flashes. it's good that you don't.23:07
leonardustomreyn, I meant I didn't see anything out of the ordinary in the screenshot (and also when trying to reproduce it). Are you referring to the color of the text? because that's the only difference I notice.23:12
leonardusBecause mine is black-on-green, yours looks to be tan-on-white23:13
sparrTJ-: quickly reproduced the problem after rebooting with your kernel options (which I still think look really weird!). only new thing is an additional dmesg line shortly after X crashes:23:14
sparr[drm:intel_cpu_fifo_underrun_irq_handler [i915]] *ERROR* CPU pipe A FIFO underrun23:14
sparrTJ-: someone in #intel-gfx seems to know what they are talking about, re the drm code in the intel driver and the EINVAL return code and the debug messages that should go with it. Would you be willing to join me over there?23:15
TJ-sparr: Yes, I'm that channel too :)23:17
azizLIGHTwhat is the command line equivalent of clicking the different options in 'additional drivers' https://i.imgur.com/ZaIFC6D.png23:21
murthyazizLIGHT: I thinik there is a jocky cli version23:22
azizLIGHTi want to see the logs while this sensitive process of switching gpu drivers23:22
azizLIGHT*doing23:22
murthyazizLIGHT: I think jockey got removed23:22
murthyazizLIGHT: https://askubuntu.com/questions/441415/what-has-jockey-been-replaced-with-in-14-04/44141623:23
OerHeks sudo ubuntu-drivers list23:23
OerHeks sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall # for the recommended driver, or;  sudo apt install nvidia-340 from the list23:24
Gen86hey im using an old imac for linux learning but when i have headphones pluged in I hear noise when i dont have any sound playing23:25
Gen86cant figure out which setting to stop it23:26
=== sinner is now known as Guest22104
OerHeksnoise sounds like volume too high, or interference from a fridge or smartphone or bad wiring23:27
Gen86nah even with the sound muted23:27
Gen86smart phone, nah im too poor for smartphone23:28
Gen86fridge... not in a kitchen23:28
bindiis it charging?23:28
Gen86bad wiring ... that might be a reason23:28
Gen86at least of the ones you said23:28
OerHeksold hardware perhaps, if this sound was external i would check the wire/replace it23:28
Gen86I mean it does play normal sounds fine23:29
OerHeksmaybe the guys in ##hardware have a bright idea23:29
Gen86just when it's not it has the sound23:29
bindiif its charging its somewhat "normal" (afaik) to have the metal body chassis have a tingly feeling to it because of voltage leaking, that might be the cause of it23:29
bindiagain: is it charging, Gen86?23:29
Gen86um these are earbuds23:29
Gen86they dont charge23:29
bindioh imac23:30
Gen86lol23:30
bindisorry i was thinking of a macbook23:30
Gen86it's an old imac im using to learn linux23:30
Gen86and as a computer while my main machine might be rip23:30
Gen86lol23:30
bindiwell is it connected to a grounded outlet?23:30
Gen86yeah should be23:30
Gen86its in a ups23:30
bindiif you connect a pc power supply to ungrounded outlet, the case will have 115Vac on it23:30
bindibecause of the noise filtering23:30
bindiand it can cause all kinds of problems23:31
bindilike if you connect your TV with HDMI to your PC, and the TV is already grounded from the antenna cable, things might break23:31
bindisame with speakers23:31
Gen86well it's got internal speakers23:33
bindiwasn't my point :p23:33
bindiis the UPS in a grounded socket?23:34
Gen86should be23:34
bindishould23:34
bindilol23:34
Gen86I have no idea23:34
Gen86im just being honest23:34
Gen86also if i do have to eventually get a new build (slow process cuz money saving) i naturally am kind of scared of windows 10 ,is there any specific hardware guidelines for linux such as ubuntu or my case xubuntu23:34
Gen86which i guess is the same requirements23:34
Gen86esp if i did want to game23:35
Gen86or am i stuck dual booting 10 and linux23:35
Gen86also weirdly the static noise stopped23:36
Gen86out of nowhere23:36
Gen86lol23:36
Gen86nm for now23:36
Gen86damn computers23:36
Gen86i love putting em together and using em but damn do they wanna give me hard times23:36
Gen86wait no.. it's back23:37
Gen86lol23:37
Gen86I mean i guess i could try speakers with a headphone jack23:38
Gen86and see if that does anything23:38
Gen86instead of directly into it23:38
