 Hello everyone, just now I have shifted from Kubuntu to Ubuntu OS on my main laptop, but after finishing the installation, post Reboot the CPU usage is 100% due to the systemd_journal process...
 When earlier I was using Kubuntu, I found this solution to get out of this systemd_journal issue and it did work but when I applied the same on Ubuntu OS nothing happened. Still, CPU usage is 100%.
 I know this group is made for Kubuntu support only but still if i can get some help from anyone, it would be really appreciated..thanks (re @Student: The systemd-journald is service in Linux OS that collects and stores the logging data.
 On some Linux distributions it is often found that systemd-journald service is consuming more than 90% or some times nearly 100% of CPU resources.
 So here's a fix for this problem...
 Open your terminal and type following command.(You can use text editor of your choice.)
[03:04] <tomreyn> Student: systemd-journald is the systemd system logging / journalling daemon. it stores system log files which you can inspect using the journalctl command. if the daemon is keeping the cpu busy, this might be because it is logging a LOT. and that may be because something is malfunctioning,spewing out lines that are to be logged all the time.
[03:05] <tomreyn> journalctl -f    will show the logs lines as they are being added. if running this command writes a lot of repeating lines to screen then find out what it is that logs this, and stop / fix it.
[03:06] <tomreyn> https://linuxtechos.blogspot.com/2018/11/solvedhigh-cpu-usage-by-systemd.html (which you seem to have quoted above) is old, i also don't see how the supposed fix (workaround rather) is (directly) related to the symptom - it may just have helped this one persons' computer, but i would not expect it to be a universal solution to this problem.

[05:17] <KevlarNoir> good morning

[12:22] <BluesKaj> Hi all
 Can you please suggest some YouTube video or article that will guide me to understand and help to resolve this issue step by step.. thanks (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> journalctl -f    will show the logs lines as they are being added. if running this command writes a lot of repeating lines to screen then find out what it is that logs this, and stop / fix it.)
[13:15] <tomreyn> Student: I was looking for some web page describing the symptom and providing a general approach to identifying the root cause yesterday, but could not really. this one (from a debian user) describes the symptoms well enough: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/606291/systemd-journald-and-rsyslogd-high-cpu-usage
[13:16] <tomreyn> it also discusses some commands you can use to get a better idea of what the root cause may be, just as i suggested running   journalctl -f   yesterday
[13:16] <tomreyn> have you done so, yet?
[13:31] <omegatron> hm, my KMail crashes at startup (Kubuntu 21.0.4); in the crash report window, following the "How to create useful crash reports" link (because of some lines with '??'), it tells me to instal -dbgsym packages.. well how would I do that?  apt-cache doesn't find them and the Muon Package Manager is not helpful at all ...
 I think the issue got resolved itself😂. When first I installed Ubuntu on my laptop, the CPU usage was 100%, so I changed "quiet splash" to "pci=nomsi" in the grub file, but the issue did not resolve by changing it. So I texted here to get some help.
 Today, after seeing your message,
  I reverted the same settings by replacing "pci=nomsi" with "quiet splash" to get the output of this command (journalctl -f) but before running this command, I checked my CPU usage and now I am not getting any high CPU usage...😁 it's normal... (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> have you done so, yet?)
 How do i play .ts file on Ubuntu? Default player doesn't support .ts file and VLC player does support it but the problem with VLC player is that,  it's very lagging when i tried to forward/backward the video and there is some delay in video and audio on vlc(same issue was with windows earlier and now with linux)
 On windows, pot Player was perfect to play .ts file without any lagging and it was very smooth but on Linux OS the pot player is still not available.
 So is there any other video players, which works smooth?
[15:08] <BluesKaj> VLC and Smplayer do very well on Linux
[15:08] <mybalzitch> tried mplayerc ?
[15:08] <mybalzitch> that might be old software now
[15:09] <BluesKaj> it's not old it's up to date
[15:20] <BluesKaj> I use both VLC and Smplayer on Kubuntu dev release 21.10 which I'm testing atm, and both players work very well, nice and smooth
[15:54] <BluesKaj> later all, take care
[16:24] <tomreyn> Student: i still doubt that botting with "pci=nomsi" is a magical fix to solve whatever yet unknown root cause that drives up cpu load on systemd-journald. what may happen is that adding "pci=nomsi" removes functionality which now prevents the root cause from occurring. maybe. we don't really know for lack of details.

[16:27] <tomreyn> !dvd | Student
 Ok, will try this later and let you know, my daily Internet data got exhausted now. (re @IrcsomeBot: <BluesKaj> VLC and Smplayer do very well on Linux)
 Thanks for the suggestions, will try and let you know. (re @IrcsomeBot: <mybalzitch> tried mplayerc ?)
 Don't know about smplayer, but did you tried to play .ts format file on VLC? I am sure you will face lagging issue on VLC.. (re @IrcsomeBot: <BluesKaj> I use both VLC and Smplayer on Kubuntu dev release 21.10 which I'm testing atm, and both players work very well, nice and smooth)
 Rightly said, without knowing the root causes we can't say anything... But in the future, if I face a similar issue, then first I'll run the "journalctl -f" command & will take a screenshot and I'll share it with you to find the root causes.. thanks for the help buddy😇.  Appreciated. (re @IrcsomeBot: <tomreyn> Student: i still doubt that botting with "pci=nomsi" is a magical fix to solve whatever yet unknown root cause that drives up cpu 
[17:48] <tomreyn> you're welcome
 I Will try it later, thanks 😇 (re @IrcsomeBot: <ubottu> Student: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons.

 Need some suggestion, my friend wants to buy a VPN so he asked me. But you all are more experienced then me so which one you suggest?
 His primary requirements are :-
 1) no log privacy
 2) unblock sites
 3) faster speed
 Checked on the internet,  most people are saying to go for Nord and Express VPN.
[18:11] <oerheks> VPN choice is not a Kubuntu support issue
 Ok, i was just asking for suggestion, but no problem..thanks
[19:15] <user|62> What changed in USB between Kubuntu 18.x or 19.x and 20.04 that requires a firmware upgrade to the Brother scanner/printers?

 Ubuntu:- How do i get Timeshift Restore option on Grub Menu? I am using BTRFS file system...
[22:38] <Mekaneck> @Student keep in mind that this IRC channel and Telegram group is tailored at support for Kubuntu not Ubuntu
[22:39] <Mekaneck> And afaik you can't get a restore option for timeshift in grub
 Ok, good bye
