[08:09] https://latenightlinux.com/late-night-linux-extra-episode-19/ Interview with an Xubuntu and XFCE developer [08:59] how can I best test the expected battery life, by live boot or by VM ? [09:18] devid, of course with bare metal live. [09:19] diogenes_ all right thank you! [13:34] laptop fail to wakeup from suspend [13:35] metbsd, usual problem [13:36] any fix? [13:54] fail to wake from suspends is a well known issue on linux for many many years [13:55] metbsd: search for bug reports, there should be lots of them [14:01] metbsd: It's generally an issue with the kernel or one of the drivers etc; fortunately mine works but it pretty much depends on a hardware-to-hardware basis. You might be interested in reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend if you are providing a bug report. [23:26] I disagree with "generally an issue with the kernel or one of the drivers". This could be so, but, personally I think that, most of the time, the root cause is the mainboard firmware ("BIOS") not supporting anything but Windows. [23:41] Running a bizarre board here, Atermiter X79 Turbo... There's not even a legit web site I can find for BIOS' ;-) [23:43] 21.04 had some cursor issues on it, but that was a nightly from awhile back.... [23:46] chaslinux: are you trying to solve some problem? [23:49] Nope, 20.04 works well... I briefly tested an older spin of 21.04 and there were cursor issues, but I was just testing 21.04. Plan on sticking with LTS for awhile. [23:49] It's a strange motherboard, so happy to test different things. [23:51] it's a chinese brand, targetting the chinese market primarily [23:56] Yes, it was a cheap way of going from my sluggish A8-5600K (fake 4 core) to an E5-1650 (6 core). The board cost me around $80CDN and funny enough only took about 25 days from China with most of that being Canada Post (about 18 days). [23:57] It was a huge upgrade for encoding media... but I do envy those running 6 core + ryzen...
