| u19809 | hi all, I have just upgrade to 20.04 and have serious paint problems on most apps (not all). E.g when I start vlc or virtualbox the screen is not alive in that if I resize the window, the content is not adjusted and sometimes painted serveral times over. Also the content is not clickable at all | 01:25 |
|---|---|---|
| u19809 | I have this problem in : dragonplayer, vlc, kate, virtualbox, chrome | 01:26 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Which video card? | 01:26 |
| u19809 | nvidia - sigh | 01:26 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> And driver version? | 01:27 |
| u19809 | 440 | 01:27 |
| u19809 | nvidia-settings shows 400.100 | 01:28 |
| u19809 | Geforce GTX1050TI | 01:28 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> What render mode in System Settings -> Disp. Config. -> Compositor -> Rendering backend | 01:28 |
| u19809 | opengl 3.1 (with message that it caused a crash in the past) | 01:29 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Did you have a re-enable button? Sometimes kwin crashes hard and messes up the rendering state. Re-enabling and logging out/in usually fixes things. | 01:31 |
| u19809 | yes i do and will reenable and login/logout. The problem occurs always after resume from suspend. Also the background of the desktop and logon screen is then black | 01:32 |
| u19809 | reenabled and rebooting after your response | 01:33 |
| u19809 | here is a screenshot of a window with messed up content : https://pasteboard.co/JoZIeq8.png | 01:33 |
| u19809 | just rebooted but paint issues still remain. I also updated backed to xrender and logged out and in again but again paint issues.... :(:(:(:(:( | 01:44 |
| u19809 | it blocks me as I need virtualbox to start a VM but because of the paint problems VBox is unusable | 01:44 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Compositing enabled? | 01:44 |
| u19809 | enabled yes | 01:45 |
| u19809 | disable ? | 01:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> No | 01:45 |
| u19809 | setup is dual display FWIW | 01:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Hmmm. You could try purging and re-installing the NVidia drivers or upgrade to the 450 driver. The 450 has several bug fixes: https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/160555/en-us | 01:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> If you unplug one display, does the problem go away? | 01:47 |
| u19809 | ok I will upgrade to the 450 ... I presume the upgrade would uninstall the 440 ? | 01:47 |
| u19809 | if I disable my second monitor the problem goes away !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 01:49 |
| u19809 | (disable from settings ) | 01:49 |
| u19809 | and also video starts to play (before nor vlc nor dragonplayer were able to play video ) | 01:49 |
| u19809 | ok, this is good ... I just reenabled the second display and again ... all is messed up. I must say that my two monitors do not have the same resolution, one is 4K the other FullHD | 01:51 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Under Nvidia Settings -> X server XVideo Settings try changing the default sync device... | 01:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> ^^^ totally guessing here ^^^ | 01:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> So does everything work on either monitor as long a the other monitor is disabled? | 01:53 |
| u19809 | only tested on the 4K monitor (disable the FHD one). sync does not seem to work | 01:53 |
| u19809 | I have not logged out when changing sync. should I ? | 01:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Most of the NVidia settings do not require loggout... | 01:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Under NVS -> OpenGL Settings have you tried toggling Allow Flipping or any of those options? | 01:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Note, the hover help often specifies if the setting applies immediately. | 01:57 |
| u19809 | sync to vblank is on, flipping off, use conformant texture mapping on, | 01:57 |
| u19809 | image settings : quality | 01:58 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> For reference, I have Flipping on, Image Settings: High Perf. ( using a 4K and 2K monitor where 2k monitor is scaled to 4k and running at 144Hz). | 02:00 |
| u19809 | ok ... will try and logout | 02:01 |
| u19809 | ok, flipping does not seem to help but I had another thing. I have global scaling set to 175 and when I set it to 100 % the problem disappears. when I set scaling back -> messed up | 02:03 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Oh yes! Use Font to change the size of everything using X. Wayland scaling is much better, but very difficult to enable using NVidia. | 02:05 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> The reason I run my 2k scaled to 4k is that sizes font and windows size match across monitors. | 02:06 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> However, scaling 1080p to 4k is a bit blocky for my preference (2K to 4k is very useable). | 02:07 |
| u19809 | i do not see how to scale an individual monitor. on 19 you had indivudual scrollbars for each of the displays, now there is just 'global' | 02:08 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Yes, correct. Only under Wayland does the per display scaling work. | 02:09 |
| u19809 | I do not mind using wayland but is it already operational for KDE ? I read that there were still open issues ... | 02:10 |
| u19809 | logging out again | 02:10 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Not until Qt 15.xxx is available will Wayland run using NVidia and proprietary drivers. | 02:11 |
| u19809 | back | 02:13 |

| HiddenDjinn | i'm having some issues with jack and a usb audio interface | 09:58 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> @Zoth_Ommog, I got this problem again | 11:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I forgot how to clear the cache | 11:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Someone pls help | 12:37 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Cleaning command didn't help | 13:05 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Swift110> Oh | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 13:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Swift110> How r u blueskaj | 13:10 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I even tried apt-cache pkgnames but it just shows no space left on device | 13:11 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Do I need to nuke my files | 13:11 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I don't understand why Kubuntu can let this happen | 13:11 |
| BluesKaj | o/ @Swift110, Zoth_Ommog | 13:14 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Welp guess I'll reformat then | 13:17 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Anyone got any method to prevent this from happening | 13:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Try clearing the log files. I have seen 3 different 20.04 installs where the log files hit 12GB or larger. | 13:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> How? | 13:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I can only access terminal | 13:20 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> how big is the syslog file (ls -alh /var/log/syslog ) | 13:22 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> 316k | 13:24 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> It's the apt/archive that is chock full | 13:25 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> have you already ran sudo apt autoremove ? | 13:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Yes | 13:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> autoclean too | 13:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> clean did nothing at all | 13:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> If you run df -lh, how big is your root directory? | 13:38 |

| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> (Photo, 668x500) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/0XDbOwNp/file_35516.jpg | 13:41 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> oh crap, 14G is a little small these days for a root directory. | 13:42 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Really? Dammit | 13:42 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Devs assume everyone has lot of hd space and packages are starting to bloat. | 13:43 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I haven't had time to switch /home to the hdd | 13:43 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> What's the recommended size nowadays | 13:44 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> That depends on what you install. If you install apps like Anaconda and android-studio (I install to my /opt directory) they consume 7.5GB and 1.3GB resp. Wine-staging is about a 1GB. Zoom, Teams, Chrome are around 300MB each so they all add up quickly. | 13:50 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Do you run any VM's? | 13:50 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Nope | 13:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> The most I do is kernel building | 13:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> For android | 13:52 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Even then I only use the /home partition to do it | 13:53 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Many build process use /tmp so may that be part of the issue. Usually /tmp is cleared on reboot. | 13:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> try this sudo find /var/log -type f -size +1000M | 13:54 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> I want to ensure none of the log process ran wild... | 13:56 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Didn't work | 13:57 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Nothing was returned or error reported? | 13:57 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Nope | 13:58 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> run the same command from root: sudo find / -type f -size +10000M | 14:00 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Wait too many zeros: sudo find / -type f -size +1000M | 14:01 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> (Photo, 668x500) https://irc-attachments.kde.org/4LEeLQpZ/file_35519.jpg | 14:02 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> ls -alh the last file on the list. | 14:03 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Nope | 14:03 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> ls -alh /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/admgpu_vram | 14:07 |
| lundrvs | I am reading a tutorial for programming in C++. And I find this point: | 14:07 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> how big is that file | 14:07 |
| lundrvs | "Add "/usr/include/freetype2" when it is in Linux. (The path of freetype2 may be different, it depends on your system)." | 14:07 |
| lundrvs | does anyone know what is "freetype2"? | 14:08 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> @DarinMiller, 4gb | 14:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Amazing | 14:09 |
| lundrvs | or how is it named in Kubuntu? | 14:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Will uninstalling amdgpu alleviate it a bit? | 14:09 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> I would try removing /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/admgpu_vram | 14:13 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> then run sudo apt update and sudo apt full-upgrade | 14:13 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Is it safe though | 14:14 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> I installed it from a amdgpu zip file | 14:14 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> I don't know, but it's in a debug directory and your system is already non-bootable. You could try uninstalling amdgpu and see if the file goes away. | 14:15 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> nm, bad advice, that file is not deleateable: https://askubuntu.com/questions/972624/how-to-delete-debug-files-in-sys-kernel-debug | 14:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Ah lawd | 14:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Amdgpu uninstall fixed it | 14:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> Very good. I still recommend increasing the size of your root partition so that you have a little more breathing room. | 14:24 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Yeah, I'll get a new HDD this weekend to give myself some space | 14:25 |
