| meway | lubuntu will not install in my leonovo laptop. | 02:09 |
| meway | reserach says sdram ? are they planning on patching or fixing this? | 02:10 |

| meway | ? maybe | 02:54 |

| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> hey guys | 10:45 |
| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> my pc heats a lot when im using lubuntu | 10:45 |
| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> i also have windows 7 installed on my harddrive | 10:45 |
| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> would it help if I used thermal paste | 10:48 |
| === miguel is now known as Guest84056 | ||
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> @alamutfedaisi thermal paste is only for the CPU and GPU contacts with the heatsink inside your system, so no thermal paste wouldn't help. I don't have the knowledge or expertise to troubleshoot the heating up part unfortunately, but I can tell you at least thermal paste isn't going to solve your problem of your computer heating up. | 15:17 |
| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> :/ thanks (re @teward001: @alamutfedaisi thermal paste is only for the CPU and GPU contacts with the heatsink inside your system, so no thermal paste wouldn't help.

| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> does it affect battery usage? (re @alamutfedaisi: i also have windows 7 installed on my harddrive) | 16:18 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> having windows 7 installed on the system alongside Ubuntu doesn't have any effect on temp or battery usage. But Lubuntu (and Ubuntu in general) tends to be a little heavier on the battery usage than Windows is. | 17:06 |

| lubot | [telegram] <alamutfedaisi> i get it (re @teward001: having windows 7 installed on the system alongside Ubuntu doesn't have any effect on temp or battery usage. But Lubuntu (and Ubuntu in general) tends to be a little heavier on the battery usage than Windows is.) | 17:19 |

| GC-BCN | Greetings. I would like to have some help with a ramdom freeze I have with my Lubuntu 18.04 | 21:27 |
| GC-BCN | At every session when I Login at my laptop PC, I manage to navigate in the applications, usually thunderbird and Chrome, for a couple of minutes, then whole pc hangs. Nothing responds, not Alt+Ctr+F1 or REISUB. | 21:29 |
| GC-BCN | I tried to look at information in the Kernel,log or in the joournal, but I didn't find any useful information. | 21:31 |
| GC-BCN | I observed that if I use the PC from the terminal opened wth CTR+ALT+F1 I can work for longer, but eventually the system crashes as well, especially if I am updating with "sudo apt-get update/upgrade" | 21:33 |
| wxl | are you particularly limited on resources? | 21:34 |
| GC-BCN | I have sufficient DDR memory,750MB, and HDD with swap space. In fact, the swap disk is not used at all | 21:35 |
| wxl | for chrome and thunderbird, that's not very much memory at all | 21:36 |
| wxl | i mean that's not very much for either of them XD | 21:36 |
| wxl | they both tend to gobble up ram like crazy too | 21:36 |
| GC-BCN | Ok | 21:37 |
| GC-BCN | however, the PC hangs even though I'm not using them becaseu it happens also when Iḿ using the terminal in VGA mode | 21:37 |
| GC-BCN | this means not even logging in in the Lubuntu area, just using the kernel with CTL+ALT+F1 | 21:38 |
| wxl | well i mean you're still running the xserver at that point so it's not like you're just using the kernel | 21:40 |
| wxl | still that shouldn't require much | 21:40 |
| GC-BCN | that is true | 21:41 |
| wxl | but i'd probably watch how your system resources are being used with e.g. `htop` to see if there are any clues | 21:41 |
| wxl | normally i'd expect such inexplicable behavior to be indicative of a hardware failure but not seeing any information in the journal is interesting | 21:41 |
| GC-BCN | Ok, I try | 21:42 |
| GC-BCN | if you see me no longer on line, it is because the PC hanged | 21:42 |
| GC-BCN | I'm using now 400 of 750MB of RAM, 0 SWAP space | 21:43 |
| wxl | assuming it dies again you may want to try a memtest just as a basic diagnostic | 21:44 |
| GC-BCN | Yes, I did that and I left it running for some hours to no avail. I didn't fail. | 21:46 |
| GC-BCN | It looks like the hang happens mainly when there are calls to the net | 21:46 |
| GC-BCN | however, I could not find any link to justify there is something wrong with the driver. | 21:47 |
| wxl | might go post something on askubuntu | 21:47 |
| GC-BCN | Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that | 21:48 |
| GC-BCN | Cheers | 21:48 |
