[02:06] <genii> Looks like a nice box
[02:07] <genii> Did you install lowlatency on purpose?
[02:11] <mamarley> genii: It was more to indicate I had already upgraded to Groovy than about the box, but it is a NUC8i7bek.  You saw the processor, and it also has Iris Plus 655 graphics and 128MB of EDRAM.  I did install lowlatency on purpose, and what I'm running right now is a custom-built 5.7-rc3 with https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/linux-2.6/log/?h=wip-rps (which is itself derived from drm-tip) merged.  That branch contains a major change in how 
[02:11] <mamarley> the iGPU clocking is done that significantly improves performance on large displays like 3840x2160 while somehow improving power consumption as well.
[02:12] <mamarley> That came as a result of me filing https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/1698, which was due to a performance regression I noted between 5.6 and 5.7.
[02:14] <genii> Cool
[02:17] <genii> My newer laptop has that GPU
[02:18] <genii> I'm running stock 20.04 on it righ now
[02:26] <mamarley> For me, this setup replaced a Skylake i5 desktop.  It is just a little more powerful on the CPU and uses less power going full-tilt than the old one did at screen-on idle.
[02:26] <mamarley> At screen-off idle, it uses so little power that the wattage indicator on the UPS reads off-scale low!
[02:41] <valorie> nice
[10:06] <blaze> gerbil?
[10:11] <RikMills> should probably change that :P
[10:11] <blaze> :D
[10:19] <BluesKaj> Howdy all
 Fwd from nggraham: 5.69 refactored the overlaysheet substantially and it causes quite a few regressions that have been fixed in 5.70
 Fwd from nggraham: If it were me, I'd skip 5.69 for that reason and just got straight to 5.70
 @Santa ^^

 In case anyone want to try VenToy, Kubuntu 20.04 requires the beta release: https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/releases/tag/v1.0.08beta2
 It is really slick!
 Oooooooooooooooooooh
 Unpack the .gz file, CD into ventoy-1.0.08b2, and run sudo ./Ventoy2Disk.sh -i /dev/sdx    <—- where sdx is you usb drive.
 sounds like something popey and wimpress would love
 @DarinMiller going to post that on the testing group?
 sure :)
 I think I need to file a bug against KDE Partition Manager for not recognizing exfat support built into the kernel.  exfat-fuse is required to format a partition in partition manager. I would think exfat-fuse should not be required, no?
 I thought so
 @DarinMiller does it work if you install exfat-utils without exfat-fuse?
 good call, just exfat-utils is required
 annoyingly exfat-utils recommends exfat-fuse :(
 exactly
 maybe that is more of the bug now
 creating the bug report now... but is that now an exfat-utils bug?
 well, if that recommends is not superfluous, and actually not good for users, then I would say so. i.e. a packaging bug
 it obviously made sense before the kernel support
 agreed.
 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420723
 I think it needs the exfat-utils even for kernel support, but could be wrong
 I suspect you are correct, but I wanted to raise the question to verify assumptions.
 Yep, you were correct.  exfat-utils is required but not exfat-fuse.
[21:41] <genii> mamarley: is graphics-drivers still being updated, or is it just being rolled into the normal repos now? 
[21:42] <genii> ( seing a user complaing about vulcan problems but apparenlt no later driver ther, or apparenly for 20.04 either)
