[02:08] <guiverc_d> should a 18.04.2 daily report 18.04.2 as lsb_release description, or in neofetch  (it says 18.04.1 & I want to make sure I've downloaded the correct one for this qa-test..)
[02:11] <lotuspsychje> guiverc_d: .2 delayed to 14/2
[02:15] <guiverc_d> thanks lotuspsychje; it's a qa-test - trying to ensure I downloaded the correct ISO  (cdimage.ubu..bionic/daily-live/current/bionic)  before I do install test
[02:15] <lotuspsychje> ah kk nvm me then
[02:17] <guiverc_d> vagely i think all lts .2, .3, .4 etc report .1 where I'm looking which is I think the issue (I'm looking wrong place) - but I'm unprecise memory-wise often..
[02:17] <lotuspsychje> OerHeks: you know this? <guiverc_d> should a 18.04.2 daily report 18.04.2 as lsb_release description, or in neofetch  (it says 18.04.1 & I want to make sure I've downloaded the correct one for this qa-test..)
[02:18] <Bashing-om> guiverc_d: Think Adam C advised will see as 18.04.1 .
[02:20] <guiverc_d> thanks lotuspsychje  & Bashing-om -- i'll continue qa-testing
[02:20] <Bashing-om> guiverc_d: Yup "
[02:20] <Bashing-om>   * base-files is still sitting in proposed (meaning various parts of
[02:20] <Bashing-om>     the OS will consider themselves "18.04.1" still), and the ISO
[02:20] <Bashing-om>     labels still read "Beta" instead of "Release" because of the above."
[02:21] <guiverc_d> :)   Bashing-om -- that's helps put my mind @ ease :)
[02:22] <Bashing-om> guiverc_d: :) A good side effect for doing UWN summaries :P
[02:23] <guiverc_d> :)   I just noted 'install 18.04.2 LTS' anyway in menu  -- confirmation from my system now !
[02:24] <guiverc_d> :)   concur, much of the little i know is from uwn summaries.

[20:23] <Gargoyle> Hi.
[21:58] <Gargoyle> Can anyone help me getting AMD gfx driver working - or a 4.20 kernel? I've tried pretty much everything sensible I can find on google for gfx driver and 4.20.0 and 4.20.7 kernels from kernel.ubuntu.com installed with the .debs and dpkg just hang with absolutely no output (with vt.handoff removed from boot cmd) so I'm not sure they are installing properly. I'm at a bit of a dead-end.
[22:10] <Gargoyle> The card shows up with "lspci -nn | grep -E 'VGA|Display'" and "lshw -c video" shows it as unclaimed.
[22:20] <Gargoyle> brb, rebooting
[22:24] <Gargoyle> OK. It's not hanging. I noticed the HD drive blinking so I left it for a few seconds and now I am ssh'd in, but the monitor is stuck on my EFI boot loader ! :/
[22:31] <Gargoyle> Ahh. Useful info... maybe:- https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RntsGxtNDS/
[23:00] <tomreyn> Gargoyle: have you looke dfor the firmware?
[23:02] <tomreyn> try https://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/vg20/
[23:15] <Gargoyle> Oh. Thanks tomreyn 
[23:19] <Gargoyle> tomreyn: Will I need to compile a kernel - or should dropping them into the filesystem suffice?
[23:29] <tomreyn> Gargoyle: just drop them in /lib/firmware/amdgpu
[23:30] <tomreyn>  /lib/firmware/amdgpu/vega20_sos.bin specifically
[23:31] <Gargoyle> Will give that a go shortly. Booted into windows to install the driver there just to make sure the card was ok. And now it's installing blooming updates because I've not used windows since Christmas! :/
[23:32] <tomreyn> hopefully windows will stoill load afterwards ;)
