Will see what the bug report yields if anything/ [06:47] Strontium, ok. i'm off to bed, good luck.

Ubuntu 19.10 64bit (installed yesterday) is very slow/almost unresponsive when GPU VRAM usage is maxed out (e.g. when running hashmap, folding@home, stress tests like Unigine Superposition). Is this expected behaviour? Geforce RTX 2060 with 440 open source driver from ppa graphic-driver. [11:45] It's fine when clock frequency is maxed out, but not the graphics RAM. === parlos is now known as parlos_afk [12:37] * oerheks sips coffee, black with milk & sugar === parlos_afk is now known as parlos [12:54] having a weird problem on ubuntu 19.10 running on a dell laptop. when I click on a window's title bar it wont come to the fore. I have disabled all extensions. and I have set focus-mode to something other than the default 'click' and then set it back. This has been happening for about a month or so [13:02] howudodat, have you checked in gnome-tweaks ? or just used gsettings ? [13:12] ioria: yes I have looked through both and not found anything in particular, of course there are 10k settings in gsettings/dconf [13:14] rename ~/.config and logout/login to see what happens? [13:14] howudodat, let's start with this : gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences focus-mode [13:15] 'click' [13:15] howudodat, let's start with this : gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences focus-new-windows [13:15] 'smart' [13:15] howudodat, gsettings get org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock click-action [13:16] focus-or-previews [13:17] howudodat, i don't have that range; try to set it only to 'preview' [13:17] *s [13:19] ioria: done [13:20] btw: yesterday when I set focus-mode to X and then back to 'click' it worked for a while (5-10 minutes) and then stopped again. I'll see if this last change helps [13:27] Hi, i am setting up a dedicated server i was wondering would it be wrong to use none LTS version of ubuntu-server [13:28] POQDavid: that depends. Is the server only going to be online for less than eighteen months? [13:28] POQDavid, some choose LTS for stability and rich documentation [13:29] POQDavid: For recommendations, polls, and soliciting opinions, please use the #ubuntu-offtpoic channel [13:29] DArqueBishop, * 9 months [13:29] sorry it is: #ubuntu-offtopic channel [13:29] ok ty === [1]MrMobius is now known as MrMobius === [1]MrMobius is now known as MrMobius [13:51] in Plasma if a window is off the screen how can i move it back on? [13:51] i can see a portion of it [13:51] Phruis: if you can click on a portion of the window... press the alt key and click and drag it back into view [13:52] pragmaticenigma, ahh thanks! [13:52] Phruis: Otherwise, right click on the entry in the taskbar, then click more actions in the context menu, and then you will see "Move" there [13:57] March is almost over! [13:57] onward march! [13:57] march is the best month [13:57] compdoc lockdown goes into effect today [13:58] Ubuntu 20.04 Beta: April 2, 2020 [13:58] Nyle, keep on topic. chit chat in an other channel. [13:59] Ive been locked down for weeks, but I did go to buy groceries a few days ago. still alive [13:59] Next time, message someone to say that. === parlos is now known as parlos_afk [14:00] Nyle, compdoc: please use #ubuntu-offtopic for this chit chat [14:01] People have stopped thinking for themselves a long time ago. [14:01] Go on. Tell me about #ubuntu-offtopic again. [14:01] Any more people to repeat this over and over? [14:01] !ops | Nyle trolls again [14:01] Nyle trolls again: Help! Channel emergency!

[14:02] Stop talking, if you want the talking to stop... [14:03] See how you start conflict? When you start playing mall cop. Just stop. Not everyone likes being told what to do by random mall cop wannabes. [14:03] Ugh. What a way to start the morning. All I wanted to do was see about ubuntu and next months' relesae. But no... someone has to play mall cop and bully and harass me. [14:03] sorry for argues [14:03] Shame on you. [14:03] AFK. [14:04] sorry for *arguments [14:04] ask JimBuntu how much i talk in #ubuntu-offtopic channel [14:04] sumagna: Please stop, this isn't helping [14:04] ok sorry [14:05] sorry pragmaticenigma for arguing [14:16] this is only ubuntu channel or kubuntu too? [14:17] nss: Ask your question, if it isn't the right channel we can help redirect you. All things "ubuntu" are on topic here. Kubuntu has sometimes better help for things involving the Desktop Environment that some people here may not be familiar with [14:17] nss: normally ubuntu, some of the things are the same regardless of u/k, but there is also #kubuntu as well [14:24] hello everyone - I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 on a ThinkPad P50 with I think an Nvidia GPU. Yesterday my external monitor (an LG plugged in with HDMI) worked fine, and then after doing an apt update/upgrade I rebooted and am having some weird issues where screen refresh seems to be quite messed up, but only when the Desktop is visible. It looks like the desktop background isn't being drawn except for the top left corner (and my deskt [14:24] round image fits into that smaller top left corner). I also deleted ~/.config/monitors.xml -- before I did that my monitor wasn't appearing at all and the Displays part of Settings was seeing the monitor but telling me "for hardware reasons" it wasn't working [14:25] hi tim23423424 until release, support in #ubuntu+1 please [14:25] to keep beta bugs concentrated [14:25] thanks! [14:29] i could't find battery life comparisons between kubuntu and ubuntu, someone have some info? [14:30] ioria: so it worked for a while, but just stopped working again (focus with click) [14:31] nss: They will be effectively the same. If you're looking to reduce system load in an effort to reduce battery consumption. You might want to look into the lighter weight edition such as Lubuntu or Xubuntu [14:32] is there a 20.04 server install iso? i see a daily desktop one, but im curious if the server one exists somewhere [14:33] sparky8251: 20.04 has not been released yet [14:33] i know. but they still are minting daily desktop ISOs for testing [14:33] sparky8251, there is, daily builds http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily-live/current/ [14:33] support in #ubuntu+1 please [14:33] cool, i wasnt able to find that link. thanks much [14:34] <_alx_> if I use grep, can I specify multiple -E at the same time? [14:35] <_alx_> grep -vi -E … -E … -E … -E … ? [14:36] _alx_: No, you cannot [14:37] <_alx_> pragmaticenigma: so the wayto do it would be one, with a bunch of | to match all the cases I need? [14:37] yes [14:37] egrep does, i think, understand egrep 'foo|bar' *.txt [14:37] oerheks: egrep is just a shortcut to grep -E [14:38] oh indeed, then this should work too # grep 'word1\|word2\|word3' /path/to/file [14:42] <_alx_> i'm actually doing this inside of vim to remove the lines I don't want [14:42] <_alx_> grep -vi -E "(.mp3)$|(.mid)$|(.zip)$|(.mp4)$|(.ogg)$|(.mxl)$|(.flac)$|(.mscz)$|(.sib)$|(.avi)$|(.jpg)$|(.mkv)$" [14:43] _alx_: I don't think that will work, but you can try it. I think "$" will only signify the end of line, at the end of the expression [14:43] <_alx_> pragmaticenigma: it seems to work on regexr, but I guess I won't know till I try :D [14:45] <_alx_> pragmaticenigma: it looks like it worked: i'm doing %!grep -vi …. in vim and it reduced my file list to only have the files ending with the extension I was interested in [14:46] <_alx_> YES! it worked, it was important to add the $ because some files end in .sib.pdf [14:46] <_alx_> I didn't want false positives [14:47] <_alx_> vim, regex and grep are SO COOL!!! :D :D :D [14:59] Hello. How can I mount system.img for Android 10 in Ubuntu? [14:59] hello. My Ubuntu won't boot. It's giving me a bunch of PCIe bus errors [14:59] Android 9: https://i.imgur.com/MvnYva0.png - Android 10: https://i.imgur.com/hmUMfQy.png - There is no longer ext4 in use for the system partition? [15:01] no one? [15:01] !patience | mike10011088 [15:01] mike10011088: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [15:02] also mike10011088 that sounds a lot like hardware failure... if this is a desktop, power down, and remove all the cards in the PCIe slots... then re-seat them one-by-one [15:02] it is a laptop and it also has windows on it, which works === parlos_afk is now known as parlos [15:03] mike10011088, boot ubuntu from a usb stick or dvd, and see if your drive can be mounted [15:05] mike10011088: I would second the live disk boot... it would also tell you if it is your installation that has a problem or if it is hardware. If it is infact hardware, you will see similar message during the live boot [15:06]
