[05:10] <diogenes_> Guest78539, are you able to connect that PC to internet via cable?
[05:13] <Guest78539> not on Xubuntu.. it doesnt show me any option at all
[05:14] <Guest78539> to where in I can connect to any connect for eg >: like in windows we see all the option in control panel wireless connections
[05:14] <Guest78539> i do not see such option in Xubuntu
[05:15] <diogenes_> Guest78539, if you have a cable from router just plug it in and it will connect automatically.
[05:16] <Guest78539> i tried doing that it doesnt connect
[05:16] <Guest78539> it still shows you are disconnected or you are offline
[05:16] <Guest78539> if i can send pictures here i do have screenshot for the same
[05:17] <diogenes_> yes that would be helpful.

[07:36] <aspenS> hey everyone
[14:12] <corruptedbob43> hello
[15:25] <elvin_presler> Hello, anyone know anything about nvidia-settings displaying a blank window and "ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system"
[15:30] <diogenes_> elvin_presler, optimus?
[15:35] <elvin_presler> no optimus. legacy mode bios.mbr, no secure boot...amd Ryzen 5 2600, geforce 1060 3gb
[15:35] <elvin_presler> no other graphics devices, etc.
[15:38] <diogenes_> elvin_presler, how did you install the driver?
[15:42] <elvin_presler> I installed it several times, several version, on several *buntu distros, not installed now, trying to sort it first
[15:46] <elvin_presler> installed via repo, with the "additional drivers" tool.
[15:50] <elvin_presler> Other info: I tried installing Xubuntu 20.04.1 on my old HDD and did not have this problem. Moved the install via Macrium image to SSD, NVME or SATA and get the problem. Installed direct on SSD, get the problem.
[15:53] <elvin_presler> I'm currently on a fresh install to NVME SSD, with only the default nouveau driver.
[15:54] <elvin_presler> Once I install any nvidia driver, I get: ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded
[15:54] <elvin_presler> ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system
[15:54] <elvin_presler> (nvidia-settings:5547): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 17:19:29.166: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed
[15:54] <elvin_presler> ** Message: 17:19:29.168: PRIME: No offloading required. Abort
[15:54] <elvin_presler> ** Message: 17:19:29.168: PRIME: is it supported? no
[16:41] <elvin_presler> About the nvidia-settings error a while ago, I tried installing the driver from the PPA instead and using the "sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall" command instead of the "additional drivers" shortcut. It has worked once (first reboot) so far! Progress!
[16:42] <elvin_presler> Will take a few reboots to see, it usually fails after a few reboots.
[16:53] <elvin_presler> ...and one reboot after running nvidia-settings successfully once, and back to "ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system"
