user04is xfce the fastest desktop environment?02:58
BloqueNegrothe fastest?10:06
BloqueNegrodont know10:06
BloqueNegrothe cleanest? yes!10:06
gnrpDepends on what you count as a desktop environment... lxde is definitely "faster" (by whatever measure), but I wouldn't really call it a DE11:17
xubuntu43wMorning! The torrent download links on this page are broken: https://xubuntu.org/download15:33
xubuntu43wThey point to 18.04.1 but the site only contains 18.04.215:33
xubuntu43wIs there a better place to report this than here?15:33
gnrpxubuntu43w: Yes, maybe place a bug in the tracker15:45
gnrpthis one here is rather for general questions that people from the community can reply to15:45
gnrpthere is also another channel, #xubuntu-devel (also freenode), where more likely somebody might have influence15:46
c5e3i've got a weird problem; i just installed a new nvme ssd and restored a backup from the nvme ssd. the system is usable for some minutes and all of a sudden active programs don't respond to key presses or mouse clicks anymore. not even the shut down menu pops up by pressing the power button. however, i can still move the mouse and highlight things.15:50
c5e3since it is a dualboot system, i also tried using windows, where the problem doesn't appear15:51
c5e3syslog doesn't show any errors15:51
c5e3*backup from the old nvme ssd15:52
xubuntu43wThanks gnrp, I posted in #xubuntu-devel as well15:52
c5e3i just tried copying files to the machine with scp and when the problem occurs, the transfer rate drops to 015:54
gnrpc5e3: does it happen regardless of activity?16:04
c5e3gnrp: yes16:04
gnrpc5e3: What you could do as an easy way of checking what is wrong, go to a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and wait till the problem occurs. Maybe you get a message then16:04
c5e3gnrp: i will try that! ctrl+alt+Fx btw doesn't work after the problem occuring16:05
gnrpyes, do it before, so when a kernel panic occurs, you will see16:06
gnrpotherwise, I guess magic sysrq doesn't work? I forgot, but the only mouse is working is usually a panic, isn't it?16:06
c5e3gnrp: i tried the magic sysrq, but i am unsure, if it is even possible to type it on a thinkpad t480s, as i have to press Fn+S for sysrq16:08
c5e3i don't really understand what you mean with the second question16:08
gnrpI don't know myself. But this behavior (only mouse working) is a specific thing16:10
gnrpit depends on how you configured your system in BIOS. If you have the F buttons as the standard key, it is easy16:10
c5e3gnrp: i've been waiting for it to happy now on tty1, but the system is still usable....16:15
gnrpc5e3: Pity. :P16:17
gnrpmaybe go on it via ssh and do some hard drive activity16:17
c5e3i will run fsck on the partition and report back after that16:18
c5e3yeah, i'll try that too16:18
c5e3gnrp: the old ssd had ICs only on one side and there is a thermal pad beyond it to disiappte heat to the mb, maybe it interferes with some capacitors on the new double sided ssd ¯\_(ツ)_/¯16:22
c5e3gnrp: lol, i just noticed, that the ssd was flexing due to the thermal pad being too thick16:29
gnrphmmmm ;)16:31
gnrplet's just hope you didn't do any permanent damage?16:31
c5e3gnrp: if so, amazon will replace the drive ;D16:32

gnrplol16:34
c5e3gnrp: ok, the problem persists and not kernel panic on tty116:39
gnrpbut the ssd still flexes?16:41
c5e3gnrp: nope16:41
c5e3ah, now a message appeared16:42
c5e3gnrp: basically just errors, that tasks are blocked for more than 120 seconds16:44
gnrpso the system is still running?!16:47
gnrpor what kind of tasks? Processes?16:47
c5e3gnrp: i just can switch between ttys now, nothing more17:04
c5e3i can't even login on any tty17:04
gnrpwhat do you mean that tasks are blocked? You mean processes?17:04
gnrpyou could also try to check dmesg in a loop or so17:05
c5e3dmesg doesn't show anything17:05
c5e3it prints something like "task xy is blocked for 120 seconds"17:06
gnrpwhat are these tasks?17:06
gnrpso you can still call dmesg?17:07
c5e3chromium, systemd, scheduler etc17:07
c5e3no, i can't17:07
c5e3basically all running tasks are shown17:07
c5e3i decided to get a replacement for the ssd anyway now17:08
c5e3i just run shred(1) over it, maybe i'll get an error there17:09
xubuntu85wi think i have found a bug in 18.04... what do i do ?22:07
brainwash!bugs22:08
ubottuIf you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.22:08
xubuntu85wthanks :)22:08
brainwashfeel free to describe the bug here. maybe we can assist you.22:09
xubuntu85wthe problem is with sgt puzzle collection when I use the "app manager" and uninstall it ... bunch of thing start going wrong...xfce... thunar and other start to fail22:11
xubuntu85wtried to reproduce 3 time on tre different machine...same issue22:12
xubuntu85wim using xubuntu 18.04 beaver22:12
xubuntu85wOk spent the day on this issue and I have just confirm, its only Xfce4 that needs to be reinstall to fix the problem.22:17
brainwashokay22:18
brainwashI assume that it does not only remove sgt puzzle collection, but also does some cleanup22:18
brainwashas in removing "unneeded" packages22:18
xubuntu85wI think so too.22:19
JackFrostGNOME software?  Is there any way to get a log from it as to what else it removes?22:19
brainwashcould be this one bug 178376422:20
ubottubug 1783764 in exo (Ubuntu) "Deleting "Mail Reader" crashes the computer" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/178376422:20
brainwashwell, similar to this one22:20
xubuntu85wit is prety close yes22:21
xubuntu85wim going to try with mailreader see if i get same result22:22
brainwashthat one is a confirmed case though22:22
brainwashmaybe check what running "sudo apt remove sgt-puzzles" does22:23
brainwashI cannot test it right now22:23
xubuntu85wok22:24
xubuntu85wreinstalling xubuntu 18.04 fresh to test  :)22:32
brainwashreinstalling the package could have been enough, or testing in the live session22:34
xubuntu85wmaybe... but i want to be sure... i still have 35 machine to do so.22:38
xubuntu85wOK, I got it all figure out (its the 1783764 bug ) as mention before. I was cliking too fast on the uninstall button whitch was not the sgt-puzzles button but the mail-client that got removed. causing this issue :https://launchpad.net/bugs/178376423:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1783764 in exo (Ubuntu) "Deleting "Mail Reader" crashes the computer" [Undecided,Confirmed]23:07
xubuntu85wso if you do uninstall mail reader you will need to reinstall xfce4 to fix everything23:08
xubuntu85wwell for me it worked anyway.23:09
xubuntu85wthanks for the help ;)23:12
