 @revers3stark26, u can install pulseeffects
 @xappleGF, 👍🏻
 @revers3stark26, but it's a flatpak
 @xappleGF, 🤔
 @revers3stark26, u should need to install it through a terminal
 @xappleGF, sudo apt install pulseeffects
 @revers3stark26, lol nope
 @revers3stark26, search for pulseeffects in flathub store in browser
 then copy and paste the command into the terminal

[10:09] <linuxuserftw> The latest 18.04 update is feezing the system. Anyone has an idea what is going on? Here are the details, thank you.
[10:09] <linuxuserftw> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1259783/latest-update-froze-the-system-kubuntu-18-04
[11:21] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: after the problem occurs, did you try booting an earlier kernel (by selecting it from the grub menu)?
[11:23] <tomreyn> kernel parameter pci=noaer should let you boot when those pci errors occur
[11:23] <tomreyn> !kernelparm
[11:23] <tomreyn> ...with reduced feature set
[11:24] <tomreyn> when you can boot properly, report what    cat /proc/cmdline    says
[11:25] <tomreyn> you should probably also do a bios update
[11:25] <tomreyn> and likely try the LTSE/HWE kernel for amdgpu graphics cards
[11:25] <tomreyn> !ltse
[14:14] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn no, I have not, I mainly do coding, know nothing about kernel and booting etc, so what exactly should I do? read that linked document by ubottu and then insert a one-time param?
[14:14] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn and also make sure I have a "reduced feature set" ?
[14:15] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn and where do I find this "LTSE/HWE kernel for amdgpu graphics cards" ?
[14:17] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn what I do know from my early days is that bios update can cause lots of trouble and mess up the box if things go wrong, I am out of full warranty and cannot send in the device should things go bad, then I have no backup to work on, is it really important to do a bios update? in linux is it possible to revert to an earler version of a bios
[14:17] <linuxuserftw> update?
[14:23] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn how do I select an earlier kernel from the grub menu? you mean the this https://i.stack.imgur.com/7Wkd9.jpg ?
[14:24] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: yes
[14:24] <linuxuserftw> ah that I did to get into recovery mode
[14:24] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: well pick one of those which are not for recovery
[14:24] <tomreyn> one that is not the latest
[14:25] <tomreyn> so the third or fifth line on the screenshot
[14:25] <linuxuserftw> so before I try setting a temp kernel param?
[14:25] <tomreyn> that's without pci=noaer
[14:26] <linuxuserftw> I think I also even did this for bionic beaver https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[14:26] <tomreyn> the idea in this approach is to test whether the latest kernel image has introduced a problem for you, which was not present on earlier kernel images for you
[14:26] <linuxuserftw> ok, that I understand
[14:26] <linuxuserftw> is there a way to check if I have this LTSE stack already going?
[14:26] <linuxuserftw> thx btw :)
[14:27] <tomreyn> if you installed ltse then your grub menu now looks differently, the first line (default kernel) will be a much newer one, and the you'll also have a newer X version. this then breaks the above test case. but it will likely work around the problem for you.
[14:28] <tomreyn> if "cat /proc/version"  returns a version number NOT starting 4.15 then you have the LTSE kernel running already
[14:28] <linuxuserftw> nah, then I possible don't have it, could check with apt list -a --installed linux-generic-hwe-18.04 I assume ?
[14:29] <tomreyn> yes
[14:29] <linuxuserftw> Linux version 4.15.0-111-generic (buildd@lcy01-amd64-011) (gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)) #112-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jul 9 20:32:34 UTC 2020
[14:29] <linuxuserftw> cat /proc/version output
[14:29] <tomreyn> that's the default / original 'GA' kernel
[14:29] <linuxuserftw> so I don't have LTSE, so much for that.. ;)
[14:30] <tomreyn> not running anyways
[14:31] <tomreyn> coming back to your earlier questions: there is no "LTSE/HWE kernel for amdgpu graphics cards", i.e. it is not specific to amdgpu driven cards, it's generic.
[14:31] <linuxuserftw> so next thing will be to check in that screenshot if I can boot with something that is NOT recovery mode.. trying 3rd line of that screenshot.. if that works though does that mean I always need to start with that in the boot menu, meaning starting with not the latest kernel, is that not bad?
[14:32] <tomreyn> "I have no backup to work on" -> that's generally a BAD idea. you NEED backups.
[14:33] <linuxuserftw> I mean no backup machine to work on
[14:33] <tomreyn> how to install and revert BIOS updates depends on your mainboard, i can't comment without having details.
[14:33] <linuxuserftw> my work is backed up, have OS images, use Timeshift for that, that saved me btw
[14:33] <tomreyn> timeshift is snapshotting, not backups.
[14:34] <linuxuserftw> so before I do anything BIOS I will try earlier kernel and then possibly temp or permanent kernel param
[14:34] <tomreyn> but if oyxu have additional backups thats cool
[14:34] <tomreyn> *you ;)
[14:34] <linuxuserftw> backups of data yes, backup of hardware no, if BIOS shoots my hardware I will to find temp hardware to continue work and most of all setup new hardware to be able to do work with it
[14:35] <tomreyn> if you're mostly interested in a quick fix, then just try the LTSE stack. if you are happy to debug the GA kernel, then compare the experience of the latest 4.15 kernel image to that before it, see whether the earlier one works.
[14:35] <linuxuserftw> local data is backued up with rsync, the work data that is
[14:35] <tomreyn> thanks for clarifying, i understand you don't have a second copy of your hardware ;)
[14:36] <linuxuserftw> ;)
[14:37] <tomreyn> i wouldn't be as worried as you seem to be about BIOS updates. but indeed it could potentially happen that a new one would break something. that's always possible, as it is with any software upgrade.
[14:37] <tomreyn> (if not very likely)
[14:38] <linuxuserftw> ok, going to try and boot with earlier kernel and report back, fingers crossed
 Hey all
[14:43] <linuxuserftw> works with Linux version 4.15.0-109-generic (buildd@lgw01-amd64-010) (gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)) #110-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 23 02:39:32 UTC 2020
[14:44] <linuxuserftw> I mean I selected the 3rd option from screenshot in grub menu
[14:44] <linuxuserftw> so somthing between 111 and 109 broke things..
[14:47] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: so you could file a bug about this.
[14:47] <tomreyn> !bug | linuxuserftw
[14:55] <linuxuserftw> so now I would need to always go in grub Menu -> Advanced Options -> Select 109 Kernel?
 Hi
 Does anyone know,  how I can install the wifi drivers of my MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC on Kubuntu?
[14:57] <linuxuserftw> or perhaps now try with latest kernel and that temp param, I cannot see older text msgs, what was the param please?
[14:57] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/latest/%23kubuntu.html
[14:58] <tomreyn> those logs are usually delayed by an hour or so
 @Deko, Try looking in driver manager
[14:59] <linuxuserftw> perfect thank you tom
 Already tried it, but it doesnt find any driver
[15:00] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: you wouldn't *always* need to select the old kernel image (after all, it would be automatically removed at some point, as it should, since it can lack necessary security patches - just like your bios)
 @Michelle, Check the name of your wifi adapter and search a linux variant
[15:00] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: ...but only until the supposed regression (newer kernel package introducing a bug over the old one) woul dbe fixed thanks to your bug report.
 Intel WIFI Driver … Version … 21.90.2.1 … This is everything I find
[15:01] <tomreyn> Michelle: lspci -knn | grep -EA3 '(Network|Ethernet) controller' | nc termbin.com 9999
[15:01] <linuxuserftw> so I should make the bug report now I guess
[15:01] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: i suggested a couple approaches, reporting the bug was one of them. you make the choice. ;-)
[15:02] <linuxuserftw> yeah bug report will also help other people, opting for that, then will try with temp kernel param
[15:02] <linuxuserftw> thx tom :)
[15:02] <linuxuserftw> :thumpup
[15:02] <tomreyn> I like how you're thinking :)
[15:03] <linuxuserftw> yeah well, you know.. :hug
 "The Intel 9260-AC Wireless Chipset doesn't work in newer Linux kernels"
 big uff
[15:04] <tomreyn> Michelle: cat /proc/version    returns your current kernel version
[15:04] <Michelle> michelle@michelle-MS-7B85:~$ cat /proc/version
[15:04] <Michelle> Linux version 5.4.0-40-generic (buildd@lcy01-amd64-011) (gcc version 9.3.0 (Ubuntu 9.3.0-10ubuntu2)) #44-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 23 00:01:04 UTC 2020
[15:05] <tomreyn> you should install the pending updates
[15:05] <Michelle> there are no pending updates
[15:06] <tomreyn> which kubuntu release are you on?
[15:06] <tomreyn> lsb_release -ds
[15:06] <Michelle> 20.04
[15:07] <tomreyn> oh thats the latest then indeed, sorry
[15:08] <tomreyn> lets look for an existing bug report
[15:08] <tomreyn> those often have good workarounds
[15:09] <tomreyn> maybe !proposed yould also help you there
[15:09] <tomreyn> !proposed
[15:10] <tomreyn> that's an extra repository by ubuntu with pre-release / QA package versions, incl. kernel images.
[15:11] <tomreyn> this can be bug 1848921
[15:12] <Michelle> The terminal cant even find the package "iwlwifi" lol
[15:13] <tomreyn> that'S the name of a kernel module, it comes with the kernel images
[15:14] <Michelle> can I somehow check, if "iwlwifi" is installed?
[15:26] <tomreyn> Michelle: do you have a linux kernel installed?
[15:27] <Michelle> yes
[15:27] <tomreyn> so you have iwlwifi installed (at least if it's an ubuntu provided linux kernel)
[15:28] <tomreyn> the   lsmod    command lists kernel modules which are currently loaded
[15:28] <Michelle> iwlwifi               331776  0
[15:34] <tomreyn> Michelle: this gives away the installation location of the module, as well as the package providing it: dpkg -L linux-modules-extra-$(uname -r) | grep iwlwifi
[15:36] <Michelle> Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/b4c03cfc37e8e8663c426de142f9be1a/pasted.txt
[17:17] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: did you actually file this bug?
[17:17] <tomreyn> *bug report
[17:18] <linuxuserftw> not yet, out and about, will read up on it and file it for sure, no worries
[17:18] <linuxuserftw> but thx for the reminder :)
[17:18] <linuxuserftw> I will for sure do this
[17:19] <linuxuserftw> never filed a bug report for linux before, so happy to see how things go in that way..
[17:19] <tomreyn> oh okay, i just looked over the past filings and couldn't spot it, so was wondering.
[17:19] <tomreyn> to file a bug against linux images in ubuntu, you'll need to create a launchpad account, but the tool will guide you trhough this.
[18:03] <linuxuserftw> so I have launchpad account and now need software to report the bug? the thing is I don't know against what package to report it
[18:08] <linuxuserftw> also I don't seem to have "run command" window :)
[18:08] <linuxuserftw> i have the konsole, doing ubuntu -bug in there tells me ubuntu not found
[18:08] <linuxuserftw> whoot
[18:10] <mparillo> I think you need to omit the space: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
[18:11] <mparillo> But, if you have a launchpad account, then you can just file a bug using the website. If they need more information, they may ask, so it is best if it is reproducible bug.
[18:12] <linuxuserftw> yeah just made lauchpad account, using online form
[18:12] <linuxuserftw> oh and yes, no space in there!!
[18:13] <linuxuserftw> so do it over form or with tool? what is better?
[18:24] <linuxuserftw> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1888070
[18:24] <linuxuserftw> hope this is ok like this ;)
 @linuxuserftw, Wow you are flooding the chat and my notification
[18:29] <linuxuserftw> left the telegram group cpl minutes after joining the irc chat, not sure what is going on with the bot..
 @linuxuserftw, Lol is this a bot
[18:30] <linuxuserftw> IrcsomeBot
[18:30] <linuxuserftw> KDE Telegram Relay Service
[18:30] <linuxuserftw> 20:30:24  ??
[18:31] <linuxuserftw> well, regardless, and sorry for mistaking you for a bot, I hope I am not causing any sort of havoc, just filed a bug report on launchpad, that is all :)
[19:31] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: it's best to report bugs using apport
[19:31] <tomreyn> or rather "ubuntu-bug"
[19:31] <tomreyn> in your case: ubuntu-bug linux
[19:32] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: but since you already reported it, do this now: apport-collect 1888070
[19:32] <tomreyn> this will add relevant logs to your report
[19:38] <tomreyn> linuxuserftw: looks like you're using amdgpu-pro, i think this is only supported by AMD (not Ubuntu)
[20:07] <aiena> is ctrl+f5 used by plasma or something by default can't get it to work for reloading a page in FF
[20:07] <aiena> even f5 doesn't work alone
[20:08] <aiena> I am on ubuntu 19.10
[20:08] <aiena> err kubuntu 19.10
[20:17] <tomreyn> !19.10 | aiena
[20:29] <aiena> tomreyn: figured it out it was my keyboard
[20:29] <aiena> xev does not register a keypress for F5
[20:51] <tomreyn> aiena: good you found it! but make sure you upgrade shortly.
[20:51] <aiena> tomreyn: ok. I noticed distro upgrades can mess up the system royally I probably will just reformat keeping the home
[20:52] <tomreyn> in my experience this only happens when you leave third party software (or package version) installed, but YMMV
[21:10] <aiena> tomreyn: I agree
[21:10] <aiena> but often I find out too late into a distro upgrade
[21:12] <aiena> crap my number three button is gone too :P time for another keyboard I guess.
[22:29] <linuxuserftw> tomreyn so this means the graphics card I have is not supported by Ubuntu? so this then means I cannot run updated kernels or updates on the system any more but stick with the one that does not show hang on the pcie errors? what is this amdgpu-pro about? I am not sure I understand your reply, sorry.
