[00:28] <NoCode> So I tried Gnome 3 with x11. Still the same lag issues. Now in MATE and it's not as bad, but I still can't watch youtube videos without lagging. Tried different nvidia drivers. Still lag.
[00:28] <NoCode> Not sure what else to do
[00:29] <Bashing-om> NoCode: Is ram the bottle neck ? As gnome needs 4 Gigs.
[00:29] <NoCode> I have 16 gigs, and I'm also on a SSD
[00:30] <Bashing-om> NoCode: Well - so much for that thought then.
[00:30] <NoCode> What kernel should I try?
[00:31] <paramdeo> NoCode do other video sites work without lag? Like Vimeo, or standard MP4 links? Could be a codec although a long shot.
[00:34] <NoCode> Okay. I just did something that absolutely flabbergasted me. I had my fancy mic plugged in. I removed it. Now I guess with the driver not in use? it works.
[00:36] <Bashing-om> NoCode: Wow :( A drver issue for the mic ?
[00:36] <NoCode> Shure MV7.
[00:37] <NoCode> Using USB.
[00:37] <NoCode> I need to boot into Gnome Flashback to see if this works now.
[00:37] <NoCode> I'm in MATE.
[01:17] <yukiup> so, when are you going to be able to remove default folders in nautilus?
[01:18] <yukiup> the ones on the left side
[01:23] <yukiup> congrats on 21.04
[01:23] <yukiup> ubuntu is still alive and fresh
[01:23] <NoCode> Yeah was definitely my mic that was the issue.
[01:23] <NoCode> Now there is no lag. Everything works well.
[01:24] <NoCode> Freaking heck, that was weird.
[01:24] <sarnold> NoCode: oh wow!
[01:24] <sarnold> NoCode: not at all what I expected
[01:24] <sarnold> NoCode: how'd you come to suspect the mic?
[01:24] <NoCode> So I am using it via XLR.
[01:24] <NoCode> Because it's a USB interface too.
[01:24] <NoCode> So something was conflicting.
[01:24] <NoCode> Now I don't have fancy lights and stuff to turn it down.
[01:25] <NoCode> Does Gnome-Flashback not have an audio icon? :D
[01:26]  * NoCode shakes his head.
[02:20] <OpenMail> am i on?
[02:21] <lotuspsychje> we see you OpenMail
[02:21] <yukiup> hi
[02:21] <OpenMail> ah ello
[02:21] <superleaf1995> hi my audio output is displaying as Dummy and there is no audio
[02:22] <superleaf1995> i just rebooted the pc and it poof, no audio
[02:22] <sarnold> superleaf1995: often times running pavucontrol is enough to figure out what's going on
[02:23] <superleaf1995> pavucontrol dosent show anything of use
[02:23] <superleaf1995> just
[02:23] <superleaf1995> "Dummy output"
[02:23] <OpenMail> you could try restarting pulseaudio?
[02:23] <OpenMail> the old turn it off and on again trick
[02:24] <superleaf1995> i ran `pulseaudio -k` and `pulseaudio --start` did not work
[02:24] <superleaf1995> neither rebooting
[02:24] <superleaf1995> wehich i just did and that is why i came here :p
[02:26] <OpenMail> pulseaudio -k && sudo alsa force-reload?
[02:26] <superleaf1995> nope :(
[02:28] <superleaf1995> i have intel hd audio ofc, both jack and pc speakers do not work
[02:34] <superleaf1995> ok so i removed all pulseaudio and alsa config and removed/purged alsa and pulseaudio
[02:34] <superleaf1995> and now the ahrdware slider is bacccc
[02:34] <OpenMail> sorry im probably the most useless person you could of ended up speaking to. i saw someone saying reinstall alsa-card-profiles and restarting pulseaudio solved the issue
[02:34] <OpenMail> ahh nothign like a good purge
[03:06] <Intelo> Hi us xubuntu but like dolphin (the split feature and overall style). If I install dolhpine, I fear it will install kde stuff too (which I don't want as it makes my system heavy). Any suggestions?
[03:10] <Intelo> I can't confirm the CL of my ram by software. I am doubtful that it is in 2 variants. 15CL and 16CL. https://www.memorybenchmark.net/ram.php?ram=Crucial+Technology+BL16G32C16U4R.M16FE1+16GB&id=14498   vs  https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl16g32c16u4r
[03:42] <DarkTrick> Updated firefox to 88 today and now window contents are not redrawn. Known issue?
[03:42] <DarkTrick> (xubuntu 20.10)
[05:24] <Intelo> unixbsd leftyfb after getting sick of not good hibernate support. I plan to use virtualbox for my work. At least I could save the things open (the state) to disk. The cost would be that the host OS would just run for nothing. What do you think, is it wise?
[06:27] <yogg> Hi
[06:30] <yogg> I created my own live usb stick with debootstrap. The stick works fine an the systems I have testet it. But now I wan't to include as many drivers as possible. I already Included drivers fro the MAC Book Pro.
[06:30] <yogg> Is there maybe a package for all the other drivers? How does the Ubuntu Live CD do this?
[06:30] <hackinghorn> hi, I see that ubuntu is moving from apt to snap, is that right?
[06:30] <hackinghorn> things that I used to do like sudo apt install tmux is now "sudo snap install tmux --classic"
[06:31] <hackinghorn> --classic is required
[06:31] <mgedmin> for applications, yes; not for core system packages
[06:31] <mgedmin> tmux is still an apt package in 21.04?
[06:31] <mgedmin> maybe there's an alternative version provided as a snap?
[06:32] <mgedmin> snaps are a nice way of getting newer versions of applications on older distribution releases
[06:32] <hackinghorn> oh I see
[06:32] <hackinghorn> tmux is in snap in 20.04
[06:32] <mgedmin> it's possible some canonical person packaged tmux for their personal convenience so they could get a newer version on an older distro
[06:32] <hackinghorn> oh it helps older version like 20.04, I see
[06:33] <mgedmin> now for some packages -- notably chromium-browser -- canonical stopped providing .deb packages and switched to snaps
[06:33] <hackinghorn> not just tmux, it's like, everything..
[06:33] <mgedmin> but these are rare
[06:33] <hackinghorn> I tried apt on multiple things, all is moved to snap
[06:33] <mgedmin> that's a gross exaggeration
[06:34] <hackinghorn> lol
[06:34] <hackinghorn> maybe 20.04 is like that
[06:35] <mgedmin> other than chromium, lxd and snapcraft I don't think there are any other transitional apt packages that install snaps in their .postinst
[06:35] <mgedmin> ah, snap-store is one other foundational snap package
[06:36] <mgedmin> (but I don't think it has a transitional apt package; there's gnome-software but it's different)
[06:36] <hackinghorn> hmm interesting,
[06:41] <hackinghorn> ah okay, not everything is snap, I see
[06:42] <mgedmin> repackaging everything into a snap would be a lot of work!
[06:42] <hackinghorn> aha, yeah. most are still in apt
[06:43] <hackinghorn> some are in both
[06:43] <mgedmin> I imagine eventually you'll get most software in apt (inherited from Debian), plus alternative (newer) versions in snaps
[06:44] <hackinghorn> yes, that sounds about right
[09:05] <Xatenev> hello
[09:06] <Xatenev> I have a folder "bin" in my $HOME folder and I want to add all applications inside that to my ubuntu application launcher
[09:06] <Xatenev> how can I do that?
[09:08] <Xatenev> ok I installed `alacarte` and added a menu item over that
[09:08] <Xatenev> that worked
[09:32] <HaJones> I want to install a low latency kernel that does get updated. I can use linux-image-lowlatency or a specific kernel i.e. linux-image-5.4.0-72-lowlatency. which should I use?
[09:32] <mgedmin> yup, all you need is .desktop files somewhere like ~/.local/share/applications, and alacarte is an app for creating/editing .desktop files
[09:32] <mgedmin> HaJones: if you want updates, install the versionless one, it'll always pull in the latest versioned one
[09:32] <HaJones> mgedmin, thanks
[09:33] <ogra> in fact there should be a more high level one called "linux-lowlatency" that makes sure yu also have the headers (so dkms module builds work)
[09:35] <HaJones> ogra, should this work: sudo apt-get install linux-lowlatency linux-headers-lowlatency ?
[09:36] <ogra> only "sudo apt install linux-lowlatency"
[09:36] <ogra> it will pull in the rest (it is a metapackage)
[09:37] <lotuspsychje> HaJones: trying to solve a bug or whats your purpose?
[09:37] <HaJones> lotuspsychje,following a tutorial about audio.
[09:40] <HaJones> ogra, after that to make grub recognize the kernel?  sudo update-grub ?
[09:41] <ogra> should not be needed ... the package should do all it needs automatically
[09:41] <ogra> just reboot
[09:42] <HaJones> does it by standard become the default kernel or do I have to change settings in grub?
[09:42] <EriC^^> HaJones: the newest kernel is the default usually
