[04:20] <cdoublejj> i also think there is a web site or some software for wathcing videos in sync with friends
[04:54] <gnoob> cdoublejj: amazon prime should do that
[16:38] <gnrp> hm, anybody with an opinion on backups? I know this is not a Xubuntu topic, rather ubuntu, but whatever
[16:38] <gnrp> I want to get some cloud storage and then do incremental backups to that, encrypted
[16:38] <gnrp> is there an on-board solution that would do that?
[18:37] <dreamon> hello. having issue xubuntu 20.04. having two bars. by clicking network-manager or pulse-audio I cannot click anything anymore. No windowfunction works anymore. software goes on running. pressing strg+alt+f2 and back with strg+alt+f7 I can go on clicking. All works normal.
[18:37] <dreamon> till I click it again in bar.
[18:39] <diogenes_> dreamon, make a new user see if that fixes.
[18:39] <dreamon> ok
[18:49] <dreamon> diogenes_, Its a little bit different, but setting mouse cursor on pulseaudio icon an scrolling middlemouse, pulseaudio symbol issnt clickable anymore
[18:51] <diogenes_> dreamon, is 'save session' enabled?
[18:52] <dreamon> diogenes_, I disabled it long before.
[18:53] <diogenes_> dreamon, ls .cache/sessions
[18:53] <diogenes_> is there anything?
[18:54] <dreamon> diogenes_, Yes.. lot of stuff
[18:55] <diogenes_> dreamon, run: rm ~/.cache/sessions/* && chmod -w ~/.cache/sessions
[18:55] <diogenes_> re-log.
[18:57] <dreamon> djsk
[18:57] <dreamon> hl++
[18:58] <dreamon> ups..  there are 2 folders left. thumbs-mydreamon:0 and thumbs-mydreamon:1
[18:58] <dreamon> the rest ist gone
[18:59] <dreamon> diogenes_, reboot?
[19:00] <diogenes_> dreamon, ok reboot.
[19:05] <dreamon> diogenes_, Now it works better. now its exacte same behavior like the testuser I added.
[19:06] <diogenes_> dreamon, so is it ok or not?
[19:07] <dreamon> diogenes_, Its better. but I cannot change volume with mousewheel.
[19:08] <diogenes_> dreamon, ps aux | grep notifyd
[19:09] <diogenes_> how many lines you get? 1 or 2
[19:09] <dreamon> most time I click on it, it dont pops anything .. after 20-50seconds menu appears..
[19:09] <dreamon> Only this one -> dreamon     3474  0.0  0.0   9280   664 pts/2    R+   21:09   0:00 grep notifyd
[19:10] <diogenes_> dreamon, is it Xubuntu?
[19:10] <dreamon> diogenes_, yes.
[19:12] <diogenes_> dreamon, run this: cat /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.xfce.xfce4-notifyd.Notifications.service
[19:12] <diogenes_> !pastebin
[19:15] <dreamon> diogenes_, https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BBrkKrgjkR/
[19:15] <diogenes_> dreamon, now run: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd
[19:16] <dreamon> diogenes_, dreamon     4138  0.0  0.1 264908 17492 pts/2    Sl+  21:15   0:00 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd
[19:17] <dreamon> diogenes_, Now IT WORKS!
[19:17] <diogenes_> dreamon, great!
[19:17] <dreamon> diogenes_, what do I have to do, that it starts at the beginning?
[19:18] <diogenes_> dreamon, systemctl status dbus | nc termbin.com 9999
[19:18] <diogenes_> sjare the url.
[19:18] <diogenes_> share*
[19:21] <dreamon> diogenes_, https://termbin.com/s0q3
[19:23] <diogenes_> dreamon, according to your output everything should work fine, next time do a cold reboot which means turn off the PC completely.;
[19:24] <dreamon> diogenes_, Ok, will be back in a few minutes
[19:27] <dreamon> diogenes_, Back. No notiyd is not running.
[19:29] <diogenes_> dreamon, i got no clue why dbus doesn't start it but as a workaround you can add this to startup:  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/notifyd/xfce4-notifyd
[19:30] <dreamon>  diogenes_ Ok, that should work. May I ask another question?
[19:31] <diogenes_> always
[19:33] <dreamon> diogenes_, I have here a thinkpad, that have a clickpad/touchpad. and my issus is this one → https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/291113/how-to-get-rid-of-the-delay-way-before-lenovo-touch-pad-reacts
[19:36] <diogenes_> dreamon, did you: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[19:37] <dreamon> diogenes_, its already newest version installed
[19:39] <diogenes_> dreamon,  mouse and touchpad > touchpad > disable while typing is it on?
[19:41] <dreamon> diogenes_, no its off.. I already tried a lot of things.. Its off was my first thought too.
[19:42] <dreamon> diogenes_, this clickpad makes me crazy. often it makes wrong clicks to. middleclick if I make a left click.
[19:43] <dreamon> diogenes_, but if you touch it first time, you cannot point exactly.. everytime you have to move first to set it on exact position.
[19:43] <diogenes_> then remove: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and make sure libinput is installed.
[19:47] <dreamon> diogenes_, you mean libinput-bin package?
[19:49] <diogenes_> xserver-xorg-input-libinput
[19:51] <dreamon> diogenes_, ok. I purged xserver-xorg-input-synaptics and xserver-xorg-input-libinput is already installed. do I have to reboot?
[19:51] <diogenes_> yes
[19:51] <dreamon> Ok
[19:55] <dreamon> diogenes_, Your my here. This works!!
[19:55] <dreamon> here=hero
[19:55] <diogenes_> ok glad it worked :)
[19:56] <dreamon> diogenes_, One last thing, pse ;)
[19:56] <diogenes_> sure
[19:59] <dreamon> diogenes_, some times waking up my notebook from suspend, it shows me last screen of xubuntu instead of asking me to input my passwort.
[20:00] <dreamon> diogenes_, I cannot click anything. but I see what I did last time. so i typ in without seeing login mask my password. And I can go on working.
[20:04] <diogenes_> dreamon, i have little knowledge about sleep/resume/lock stuff because i don't use any of those but it's all configurable in settings > screensaver, it that won't help then replace xfce4-screensaver with xscreensaver and see if that one works better.
[20:05] <dreamon> diogenes_, OK. I have a lot of dmesg of mce: CPU4: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled
[20:07] <dreamon> I think my cpu is running to hot .. On xubuntu live system it dont makes so much loud cooling sound.
[20:07] <diogenes_> dreamon, sudo apt install xfce4-sensors-plugin, open it and set refrash time for 5 seconds and just monitor the temp.
[20:08] <dreamon> I upgrade very often and I think there is something wrong mit cpu scaling.
[20:09] <dreamon> I already use this plugin. and cpu freqenz displaying.. It scaling to high i think. On live system it consume 5W less power, if there is no process running. I have a wattmeter, so I can see.
[20:10] <diogenes_> dreamon, run: top
[20:10] <diogenes_> and see which proc eats up CPU.
[20:11] <dreamon> xlrg 2
[20:11] <dreamon> ups. xorg=2.3% cpu and xfwm4 0.7% cpu
[20:13] <diogenes_> now: sudo powertop and hit Tab till you reach Device Stats
[20:14] <diogenes_> you can screenshot.
[20:15] <dreamon> diogenes_, https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/kp969jPSB4/
[20:16] <dreamon> I think I will do this running on live system, and look for differenz
[20:17] <diogenes_> now: ps aux | grep track
[20:18] <dreamon> diogenes_, dreamon     2050  0.0  0.1 587864 31092 ?        SNsl 21:53   0:00 /usr/libexec/tracker-miner-fs
[20:18] <diogenes_> oh damn, that might be it.
[20:20] <dreamon> diogenes_, tell me what you mean? Im using synapse its like gnome-do. to starte easy apps. maybe they use a tracker?
[20:20] <diogenes_> settings > session and startup > application autostart and disable everything that contains tracker.
[20:26] <dreamon> diogenes_, all tracker are already disabled. but cannot delete.
[20:28] <diogenes_> then you have to research what else you installed that triggers /usr/libexec/tracker-miner-fs.
[20:29] <dreamon> diogenes_, Ok. So let me say. Thank you very very much. You made me very happy.
[20:30] <diogenes_> you're welcome and good luck :)
[20:31] <dreamon> \o/ :)
