[01:35] 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... [01:35] 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%. [01:35] 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. [01:35] 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. [01:35] So here's a fix for this problem... [01:35] Open your terminal and type following command.(You can use text editor of your choice.) [03:04] 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] 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] 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.

[13:15] 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] 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] have you done so, yet? [13:31] 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 ... === clickwir_ is now known as clickwir [14:42] 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. [14:42] Today, after seeing your message, [14:42] 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: have you done so, yet?) [15:06] 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) [15:06] 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. [15:06] So is there any other video players, which works smooth? [15:08] VLC and Smplayer do very well on Linux [15:08] tried mplayerc ? [15:08] that might be old software now [15:09] it's not old it's up to date [15:20] 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] later all, take care [16:24] 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.

(re @IrcsomeBot: VLC and Smplayer do very well on Linux) [17:36] Thanks for the suggestions, will try and let you know. (re @IrcsomeBot: tried mplayerc ?) [17:38] 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: 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) [17:43] 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: 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] you're welcome [17:48] I Will try it later, thanks 😇 (re @IrcsomeBot: Student: Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons.

But you all are more experienced then me so which one you suggest? [18:10] His primary requirements are :- [18:10] 1) no log privacy [18:10] 2) unblock sites [18:10] 3) faster speed [18:10] Checked on the internet, most people are saying to go for Nord and Express VPN. [18:11] VPN choice is not a Kubuntu support issue [18:12] Ok, i was just asking for suggestion, but no problem..thanks [19:15] What changed in USB between Kubuntu 18.x or 19.x and 20.04 that requires a firmware upgrade to the Brother scanner/printers?

I am using BTRFS file system... [22:38] @Student keep in mind that this IRC channel and Telegram group is tailored at support for Kubuntu not Ubuntu [22:39] And afaik you can't get a restore option for timeshift in grub [22:41] Ok, good bye
