shallowhound | I have a very plain installation of Xubuntu 18.04, which I installed not too long ago and can't close any more without the screen turning off but the computer remaining on. This is the main behavior which I am asking about, but Ctrl+Alt+Del appears to repeat this behavior, and it also just happened without me doing anything just now. | 06:25 |
---|---|---|
shallowhound | I cannot close the laptop, without it turning off, but not hibernating, or suspending, or shutting off. The screen is completely but appears to work every other way. | 06:28 |
shallowhound | completely dark | 06:29 |
gnrp | shallowhound: What GPU do you have? | 08:10 |
gnrp | I suspect a GPU problem. Having exactly this problem from time to time after an upgrade when the Nvidia driver was not properly upgraded | 08:11 |

Noboru55 | diogenes_ hello | 18:17 |
Noboru55 | diogenes_ i lost the txt i saved with that command you showed to me to do the usb works better | 18:17 |
Noboru55 | diogenes_ could you paste it again please? | 18:17 |
Noboru55 | diogenes_ when you see it. of course.. thank you | 18:20 |
diogenes_ | Noboru55, nano /etc/sysctl.conf add: vm.dirty_bytes = 15728640 | 18:22 |
diogenes_ | sudo sysctl -p | 18:23 |
Noboru55 | i have no idea what happened here, twice when i insert a pendrive in one of my usb ports, all the system get crazy, all user folders get a lock and when restart i get errors on my hd..... i will not use anymore that usb port... some things only happens to me | 18:23 |
Noboru55 | diogenes_ thank you ! | 18:23 |
diogenes_ | yw | 18:24 |
Noboru55 | :D | 18:24 |
diogenes_ | i'm almost sure it's NTFS. | 18:25 |
Noboru55 | the pendrive? | 18:25 |
diogenes_ | yes | 18:25 |
Noboru55 | it works in other usb ports | 18:25 |
Noboru55 | that one where i get this error, is the port where my scanner of printer works | 18:25 |
Noboru55 | in others it doesnt work | 18:26 |
Noboru55 | its weird | 18:26 |
diogenes_ | maybe one is 2.0 another 3.0. | 18:26 |
Noboru55 | let me explain, i have an usb port where when i plug the pendrive, i get a system error... but the usb pen works good in other all ports usb... | 18:27 |
Noboru55 | where i got the error is always in the same port... i think its 3.0 | 18:27 |
Noboru55 | because the scan only works there to scan | 18:27 |
=== rubywarden is now known as rubenwardy | ||
Noboru55 | but.. why it happens ? | 18:27 |
Noboru55 | anyway... i do not usee that port anymore... its almost a virus | 18:28 |
diogenes_ | only saint iGNUssius knows. | 18:28 |
Noboru55 | all folders get a lock... and if reboot u get error in file system partition | 18:28 |
Noboru55 | its ok now.. that usb port worked weird in windows too | 18:29 |
Noboru55 | so, maybe its my hardware doing something in the o.s | 18:29 |
diogenes_ | maybe you spilled some coffee on it. | 18:30 |
Noboru55 | lol.. | 18:30 |
Noboru55 | thank you | 18:31 |
* genii 's ears perk up momentarily at the mention of coffee | 18:31 | |

diogenes_ | HPs are linux friendly. | 20:25 |
xubuntu47w | sorry i really dont know | 20:25 |
xubuntu47w | this is hp yes | 20:25 |
xubuntu47w | i got this one from a friend... he got a pincode on this.. but after an update it pincode turned into password and we coulnd get into windows.. | 20:26 |
