=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [03:02] Join [03:03] Hi [03:03] 👋🏻 [11:11] hi [11:13] oooooo [11:52] ok?hello there [11:52] is anybody here ? [11:52] people maybe ?) [11:52] some kind of humans [13:09] here :) [13:37] hello all. I recnetly upgraded my old compute stick from 16.04 to 18.04 (fresh install, /home copying). With the 18.04 my TV is detected as a 7" device, and seems to enable some "small screen" feature, with big fonts and so on. [13:38] I looked a bit into settings, but I wasn't able to disable this. [13:38] Can you please help me ? Thanks in advance :) [13:42] nailyk, run in terminal: xrandr and pastebin the putput [13:42] output* [13:42] !pastebin [13:42] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [13:43] haha, I am in a remote shell with xforwarding, it does not report remote display but local one ;) [13:44] https://paste.debian.net/1072566/ [13:45] so you need to: xrandr --size 1920x1080 [13:45] (it worked fine on xubuntu 16.04, TV was detected as 32", now into settings it is mentionned 7") [13:46] It does not looks like something changed [13:47] see if xorg show the + sing on 1920x1080 [13:47] mhhh 160mm x 90mm is definitively not good [13:47] no, still the same output [13:48] and the output of: lspci -nnk | grep VGA -A3 [13:49] https://paste.debian.net/1072569/ [13:50] hmm, weird, it should be working, maybe it would make sense to load the previous kernel to see the difference [13:50] thats a point, I cannot change it easily [13:51] This thing needs specific ubuntu iso refactoring to work [13:51] (some driver including I guess) [13:51] but is there any way to disable this mode ? === Unlimiter is now known as Unlimiter0 === Unlimiter0 is now known as unlimiter_ === unlimiter_ is now known as unlimiter1 [13:55] no clue abput that one hmm [13:56] thanks [13:56] Will try to get the proper screen size === unlimiter1 is now known as unlimiter_ [14:03] https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2390362 fixed it [14:06] I also have an issue with gnome-alsamixer which is almost unusable. Do you know how to reset the configuration? [14:06] I wasn't able to find something into .config [14:06] nailyk, look in dconf-editor [14:09] nothing into. Nor into the Configuration editor from the menu [14:09] Mostly, alsamixer seems to crash because of ending '/' into some configruation folder. [14:10] I found a related issue into the ubuntu bug tracker, but the version I have should already include the patch [14:11] "Bad key or directory name: "/apps/gnome-alsamixer/display_mixers/": Key/directory may not end with a slash '/'" [14:12] s/ubuntu bug tracker/debian bug tracker/ [15:23] hi [15:23] eraserasrs [15:23] rsa [15:23] rsa [15:23] raser [15:23] ae [15:23] ra === Israphel is now known as Guest30640 === Israphel_ is now known as Israphel [20:31] how do I install the amdgpu opensource driver? [20:32] isn't it built-in to the kernel at this point? [20:33] what Xubuntu version do you have and which kernel? [20:33] just installed 18.04 LTS [20:33] let me check the kernel version [20:34] 4.18.0-16-generic [20:36] "If you're running Ubuntu 18.04, you already have the open source AMD drivers installed. They're integrated into Mesa and the Linux kernel. Since, Ubuntu 18.04 is new, it'll have some of the latest features." [20:36] more info here - https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-the-latest-amd-radeon-drivers-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux#h8-open-source [20:37] but you may want to search for some more official information about that [20:37] is there any way I can confirm I have them installed? [20:37] because I ran update-initramfs and it sent me a ton of alerts saying something about amdgpu not found or not installed [20:40] I would guess you need to specify that driver in the "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file, but you may want to wait for someone more knowledgeable with AMD graphics in this channel [20:46] Iam not really knowledged on amd drivers but I would bet a 'lsmod' and reading /var/log/Xorg.0.log can confirm what driver is in use. [20:46] #my2cents [20:46] sorry my Xubuntu decided to freeze [20:46] fresh installation :( [20:49] gorilla90: https://paste.debian.net/hidden/e1ad9789/ [21:42] oh well it does look like amdgpu is being loaded [21:43] both lsmod and reading the Xorg log show amdgpu [21:46] also, I don't have /etc/X11/xorg.conf file [21:47] nailyk thanks for the help [21:47] how can I try to debug the root of when my OS freezes? [21:47] any specific log file I should keep an eye? [21:59] if you still have a shell (like with ctrl+alt+1) you can try reading dmesg and /var/log/messages. If not, after the reboot you can look into ramoops I guess (mkdir /tmp/oops && mount -t pstore pstore /tmp/oops) [21:59] but this will be tricky [22:27] when it froze only the pointer was working, nothing else responded (clock on tray was stuck as well) [22:28] next time I will try your second option === vp12 is now known as vp11
