[00:39] <jhutchins> Deepspeed: If you do manage to work through this, can you see where the packaging docs could be corrected or improved?
[00:41] <Deepspeed> well, the first example of a really simple program (I think a hello world?) won't even build when you follow the instructions.  Not sure why, but it's broken.  If I figure out exactly why, I'll probably try to help update the docs.
[00:42] <Deepspeed> I tried this about 2 months ago and it was a total waste of time.  Was trying to package an app for our distro's repos, but couldn't figure it out the right way and just made a hackish working package with a simpler, unofficial method.
[00:43] <Deepspeed> Probably gonna have to just hackishly build this current package and try to figure out what's broken about it, too, but man... not excited about it lol.
[00:58] <Bashing-om> Deepspeed: There is a big push currently to get documentation updated - all helps will be greatly appreciated: https://ubuntu.com//blog/the-future-of-documentation-at-canonical .
[01:06] <Deepspeed> Bashing-om, hopefully I'll have time to work on it.  I have a ton of docs I'm in the middle of writing for my own distro ATM, but I'll try to contribute to the ubuntu stuff as well if possible.
[01:07] <Bashing-om> Deepspeed: :D
[01:10] <guzzlefry> hey, quick question, do Apple AirPods play well with 20.04? No audio lag or anything like that.
[01:10] <Deepspeed> People still buy apple products?  :P
[01:11] <guzzlefry> yes :P
[01:11] <leftyfb> guzzlefry: they work fine for headphones
[01:11] <leftyfb> Deepspeed: please don't
[01:11] <sarnold> guzzlefry: I think headphone-only works okay but it really wasn't fun to try to get them to high-quality headset stuff
[01:11] <guzzlefry> sarnold: Is that a special mode?
[01:12] <sarnold> guzzlefry: mine are hand-me-downs so maybe newer ones do better, but I'd be surprised. I think pipewire has better BT codec support than pulseaudio, but I really don't understand the software stack
[01:12] <sarnold> guzzlefry: yeah, bluetooth is implemented via two or three dozen codecs / protocols
[01:12] <sarnold> guzzlefry: and some sound pretty horrible but work almost everywhere, some sound great but require horrible drivers everywhere, etc
[01:13] <sarnold> guzzlefry: certainly don't spend a big pile of money on something until you've looked into a bit
[01:13] <guzzlefry> Sadly that's the only form factor that doesn't drive me insane. Using some wired EarPods right now, but the cable is so short that I pull it out of the jack about twice a day. :P
[01:14] <Dan92129> I had to search for BT drivers for a BroadCom chip once.   The default driver in Ubuntu was giving me a faint click in the audio stream every 3 sec.    the drivers i found as GitHub project from a French develeoper worked much better
[01:15] <Deepspeed> yeah, I have some around-the-neck style bluetooth earbuds now.  I love them for staying out of the way while working.  And they make great earplugs when I'm playing music on stage, too.  Those work fine for Linux and everything else I've used them on so far.
[01:15] <Dan92129> btw,  the broadcom chip was inside my DELL Inspiron 15
[01:15] <sarnold> guzzlefry: yeah -- I just use my airpods with android phones. sigh :)
[01:16] <guzzlefry> Deepspeed: Do you have a model number? I can't use traditional over ear headphones for long since it irritates my scalp.
[01:17] <Deepspeed> erm, these are LG.  Lemme find the model.  I prefer an older model they don't make anymore because the new ones are crazy expensive.
[01:18] <Deepspeed> LS HBS820S is the type I have now.  And I had a pair without the last S before which were nearly identical and also great.
[01:18] <Deepspeed> My last pair got stolen.  I liked them enough to get another if that counts for anything.
[01:19] <guzzlefry> thanks, I'll give them a look
[01:19] <Deepspeed> LG, not LS*
[01:35] <lantech19446> can anyone explain to me why sometimes my ubuntu server will come up as needing a restart even though I haven't done any updates? It seems to effect some services also because ansible seems to lose its ability to connect to nodes on the network
[01:36] <oerheks> unattended updates probably?
[01:38] <sarnold> lantech19446: /var/run/reboot-required.pkgs may have a list of packages that asked for a reboot when updated
[01:39] <lantech19446> even though I didn't run any updates since the last restart?
[01:39] <oerheks> that would not happen with LTS and Livepatch, for kernel
[01:41] <lantech19446> sarnold: looks like it updated the kernel even without me running them
[01:41] <sarnold> security updates get installed by unattended updates by default
[01:42] <sarnold> it's pretty common to fire up a vm, log in, try to install something, and there's updates being installed so your apt install gets wedged waiting for the lock..
[01:42] <lantech19446> oh ok, I don't usually run server i run desktop
[01:42] <sarnold> it should be installed there, too
[01:43] <lantech19446> it always prompts me for kernel updates on desktop
[01:44] <lantech19446> I guess the next question is is there anyway to restart without actually power cycling the machine?
[01:45] <oerheks> !livepatch
[01:45] <oerheks> lts only
[01:46] <lantech19446> I'm assuming that livepatch is not free?
[01:46] <oerheks> yes it is, up to 3 machines?
[01:47] <oerheks> but for just a desktop that would not require uptime, ...
[01:48] <lantech19446> I only need it for one, I used encryption on this box because it contains passwords in the inventory for ansible I haven't converted it all over to keys yet. and it's just a royal pain in the butt to restart I have to drag an hdmi monitor from across the building to connect to it
[01:50] <lantech19446> thank god I did build this on LTS so I will look into livepatch tomorrow thank you all for your help
[01:53] <Bashing-om> lantech19446: Might try ' systemctl reboot ' see if that prevents having to hook up a monitor.
[01:55] <lantech19446> Bashing-om: how would that get me past having to input my encryption passphrase?
[01:56] <sarnold> get reaaaal good at typing? :)
[01:56] <sarnold> no need for the monitor if you don't make typos
[01:56] <Bashing-om> lantech19446: Ouch - yeah that would be some kind of a step :(
[01:56]  * sarnold nods
[01:56] <lantech19446> I've tried man it never seems to work
[01:56] <sarnold> hehe
[01:57] <lantech19446> Bashing-om: that's ok oerheks gave me what sounds like a reasonable solution to this
[01:58] <oerheks> have fun!
[04:11] <repozitor> Do you know whether maas.io tool run OS on native hardware or not?
[04:11] <repozitor> Or it just provide some features for virtualization?
[04:16] <sarnold> repozitor: maas boots machines via ipmi or ilo or pxe or whatever
[04:17] <sarnold> repozitor: you can make it work with vms but it is mostly intended for actual metal machines (hence the name :)
[04:19] <repozitor> So every OS that come from maas server should be executed in virtual environment, right?
[04:20] <repozitor> sarnold, something like vmware product. maas provide virtualization technology with some remote features, right?
[04:20] <sarnold> repozitor: no
[04:22] <repozitor> So the OS will be executed on native hardware right?
[04:23] <repozitor> If I install some high performance app like games, they can uses native GPU, right?
[04:24] <sarnold> yes, using maas to roll out HPC workload is certainly something it does
[05:29] <kur1j> is there a way to issue 100 simultaneous ssh connections?

[08:46] <olspookishmagus> something odd just happened, I booted Ubuntu 21.04 to my laptop and inserted a USB drive to it
[08:46] <olspookishmagus> for some reason it mounted/unmounted the drive to the point it's partition table now no longer exists
[08:47] <olspookishmagus> I also suspect faulty hardware (USB disk, laptop) but I'm pretty certain that's not the case

[09:29] <PowaBanga> hi,
[09:29] <PowaBanga> is there some worker from canonical in this canal ?
[09:33] <tomreyn> PowaBanga: this channel is mostly community maintained. do you have a support question on ubuntu? if you have a question on canonical products and service, your best bet is to contact them through your existing contacts or the website.
[09:36] <tomreyn> olspookishmagus: use testdisk, but note that 21.04 has reached end of life - you need to upgrade or reinstall.
[09:37] <PowaBanga> I am doing a devops training at "Technifutur". And 'I saw that there is a job offer with them.
[09:38] <tomreyn> ok, contact them directly then, please, this channel is just for support Q&A
[09:38] <tomreyn> !irc channels
[09:38] <tomreyn> !channels
[09:39] <PowaBanga> ok, thank you tomreyn
[09:40] <gordonjcp> olspookishmagus: if you've formatted the disk with an ext2-family filesystem, most likely ext4, then there are multiple copies of the superblock
[09:41] <gordonjcp> olspookishmagus: even if the partition map is gone you can go hunting for a superblock and pass that to mount directly
[09:41] <gordonjcp> olspookishmagus: if as your IRC nick implies you are indeed and old and highly puissant wizard, and you have a suitably big beard, this might get you working again
[09:56] <olspookishmagus> tomreyn, gordonjcp: I'm ok with my data, but I'm now looking for my USB voltage meters to see if something's wrong with my USB port
[09:58] <mncheckm> ogra, thanks
[10:09] <olspookishmagus> I get a nice and stable 5.09V out of my port, I'll try booting another ubuntu flavor (xubuntu, kubuntu, lubuntu) or another distribution and see if the problem persists and report back
[10:31] <tomreyn> - "21.04"
[12:36] <andi_> RUN localedef -i en_US -c -f UTF-8 -A /usr/share/locale/locale.alias
[12:36] <andi_> can somebody tell me what's wrong with that command
[12:39] <frickler> andi_: you need to add an outputpath
[12:45] <Kangarooo> How do i make notiication of eror report and icon in taskbar to appear by making fake crash?
[13:03] <brandoneliza> I have an hp printer that is connected to my system via USB. If I pull out the paper to stop a print job then cancel the job with CUPS the job is cancelled. THe printer blinks red after that. If I turn on the printer again it reinitialises. I noticed if I issue any print job aftre this it takes about 4 minutes for the job to move from pending to actually printing.
[13:03] <brandoneliza> Is there a way to reduce this delay. Apart from restarting the system which makes CUPS send the job to the printer stat.
[13:15] <michaelshiloh> ?
[13:16] <brandoneliza> hmm since I cannot be on IRC here for longer I will ask again later. Thank you.

[15:46] <MrCollinsGA> hello. I have a nfs share (not same box) mounted to my ubuntu 20.04 machine in /etc/fstab and I pass this in fstab 192.168.1.x:/mnt/foo/bar /localmountpoint nfs4 rw,auto,nofail 0 0
[15:46] <MrCollinsGA>   yet I cant cp to any subdirectories.. what am I missing? thank you.
[15:50] <MrCollinsGA> also when I try to chown those subdirectories, to my user, it says operation not permitted even if I sudo.
[15:53] <anddam> re-asking my previous question, I enabled apport service, "unlocked" ulimit -c yet I do not see an app dumped core
[16:05] <jhutchins> MrCollinsGA: Do you mean you can't write to those directories?
[16:05] <MrCollinsGA> jhutchins yes
[16:06] <jhutchins> MrCollinsGA: Filesystem permissions are controlled by the NFS settings and the permissions on the sharing host.
[16:06] <jhutchins> MrCollinsGA: What permissions do the unwritable directories show?
[16:06] <MrCollinsGA> jhutchins, right. I guess I am just missing something on that end.
[16:06] <MrCollinsGA> let me post that

[16:11] <anddam> what;s even the point in doing that?
[16:11] <Maik> what?
[16:12] <Maik> tomreyn: mind kicking out elinfo_ ? thanks
[16:12] <tomreyn> anddam: you can bring up questions regarding channel management in #ubuntu-ops - but let's keep it out of here, please.
[16:14] <anddam> tomreyn: sure thing
[16:14] <anddam> I cannot wait to talk about my apport issue
[16:14] <anddam> Maik: the noise that "elinfo" did, I do not understand the point in that
[16:15] <MrCollinsGA> jhutchins, I got it figured out, thank you.
[16:15] <Maik> anddam: just a regular troll
[16:16] <tomreyn> Maik - it seems solved for now. See also my message above ti anddam. let's focus on ubuntu support then, shall we?
[16:16] <Maik> sure :)
[16:17] <anddam> what am I doing wrong since I do not see core dumps? I set  "ulimit -c unlimited" and did sure apport service is enabled and started
[16:19] <jhutchins> MrCollinsGA: Good work!
[16:19] <MrCollinsGA> tyvm
[16:29] <duuude> People say Void XFCE, MX Linux and other stuff take less RAM than Xubuntu, why is that?
[16:29] <Maik> duuude: that's something for in -discuss since it's not a ubuntu support question
[16:30] <tomreyn> duuude: Hi. This channel only supports Ubuntu and its official flavours (one of which is Xubuntu). We don't do comparisons with other distros here. You could try that in #linux
[16:30] <tomreyn> #ubuntu-discuss is for discussions *on* Ubuntu
[16:30] <duuude> Well I thought you may have an idea about what Ubuntu has on the top
[16:32] <Maik> duuude: either move it to -discuss or #linux
[16:45] <Slartibart> I have 3 displays connected to my computer, 1 of them by HDMI and the other 2 using a displayport splitter(hub?). Running kubuntu 21.10. The problem is that the displayport screens toggle on/off quite a lot. Not like powering off the displays, but they go black for a short (usually) time, then they come back on. Often enough to make it difficult to use them. Also this doesn't happen when running
[16:45] <Slartibart> windows 10 from the same computer. Anyone experienced this?
[16:46] <anddam> Slartibart: check logs
[16:46] <anddam> the going black makes me think of a faulty cable, but that does not fit with the "W10 works" thing
[16:48] <anddam> question of my own: is there a default shortcut to open a terminal on 20.04?
[16:48] <anddam> is the default DE GNOME?
[16:48] <skr-> ctrl-alt-t
[16:49] <tomreyn> Slartibart: it's probably related to the DP slitter/hub support. try without it, just to see whether it introduces the problem.
[16:50] <Slartibart> anddam: Xorg logs?
[16:51] <Maik> anddam: ubuntu uses gnome again since the 17.10 release
[16:51] <Maik> so yes it's Gnome
[16:51] <Slartibart> tomreyn: Just one of the displayport screens? Fair enough. But what do I do if the screen won't go black without the splitter? I'd still like to have 3 screens..
[16:52] <tomreyn> anddam: gnome-shell / mutter is the default desktop / compositor / WM.
[16:52] <anddam> just to have some keyword to look for the shortcuts
[16:52] <anddam> I guess Ubuntu is smart enough to have a kind of cheat-sheet helper screen, doesn't it?
[16:53] <tomreyn> Slartibart: what anddam said - check your logs. see whether this splitter device is supported / works according to DP specifications.
[16:53] <anddam> ah yea, Help > Keyboard shortcuts
[16:53] <anddam> Slartibart: I'd start with Xorg and dmesg
[16:54] <tomreyn> Slartibart: i'd keep   journalctl -f   running in a terminal window and see what is logged when then screen blanking occurs
[16:55] <tomreyn> Slartibart: note that 21.10 defaults to xwayland, not xorg.
[16:55] <anddam> oh right, systemd
[16:55] <Slartibart> Thanks, guys :), will look into it now.
[16:56] <Church> Qq for the ubuntu-pro images on AWS, what's the default user name? Seems it's not ubuntu like the default images.
[16:58] <anddam> what does exited mean in systemctl status output, Active line?
[16:58] <anddam> case in point I have     Active: active (exited) since Fri 2022-01-21 17:43:14 CET; 14min ago       along with      Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/apport; generated)
[16:59] <anddam> also "active (exited)" is in a nice, healty green color, I figure that service is ok, right?
[17:00] <tomreyn> Church: We can't support commercial offerings by Canonical here. See the AWS marketplace or https://ubuntu.com/aws/pro for contact options.
[17:00] <anddam> ok with unlimited core file size and service active I get a core dump for   "sleep 5 & pkill -SIGSEGV sleep"
[17:00] <Church> tomreyn: Got it
[17:00] <oerheks> Chso you did not read their docs? " EC2 used SSH keypair authentication for user not password authentication for the user ubuntu :
[17:00] <oerheks> Church ^^
[17:01] <Church> oerheks: I did, trying to use the keypair generated and attached to the host for the ubuntu user. Only getting permission denied however.
[17:02] <Church> And not it works... wat
[17:02] <Church> Weird
[17:51] <Nate-> sudo nautilus
[17:51] <Nate-> ** (org.gnome.Nautilus:35326): WARNING **: 20:46:21.922: Error on getting connection: Failed to load SPARQL backend: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY
[17:51] <Nate-> Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
[17:51] <Nate-> what is the problem?
[17:53] <anddam> so, I can get a core dump by killing a process with SIGSEGV, but then I have an actual GUI program written by me that is segfaulting on Ubuntu 20.04, I see "Aborted (core dumped)" in terminal yet no file in /var/crash
[17:53] <anddam> https://termbin.com/n4ed
[17:53] <anddam> this is the stderr, ending with "Aborted (core dumped)"
[17:56] <anddam> actually I got that "Aborted" when starting the process on the Ubuntu host from an external ssh session, when using the actual system in a graphical session I get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[17:56] <anddam> yet not core is to be found
[17:56] <anddam> am I approaching this wrong?
[17:58] <jhutchins> Nate-: You should not be using nautilus with root privileges.
[18:12] <Nate-> jhutchins: what will i do then?..
[18:15] <anddam> no takers?
[18:15] <anddam> is #linux possibly a more appropriate channel for this?
[18:16] <Nate-> they are not answering
[18:19] <jhutchins> anddam: Perhaps this is not really an irc-level question.  https://www.baeldung.com/linux/managing-core-dumps
[18:20] <ioria> Nate-, pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY nautilus     ; but in general, you use another package for that
[18:21] <ioria> Nate-, like 'nautilus-adm'
[18:37] <anddam> jhutchins: btw managed to solve with systemd-coredump and coredumpctl
[18:37] <anddam> I wonder why the "regular" route via apport did not work though
[18:51] <jhutchins> anddam: I think most people here (me included) wouldn't know what to do with a core dump if we got one.  That's why they're a little bit hard to get to in a default setup.
[18:52] <jhutchins> But good on ya if you do know how to use them, and we all look forward to your world-changing software development <grin>.
[18:58] <anddam> sarcasm?
[18:59] <anddam> eh, I'll take it anyway
[19:27] <jwpapi> Anybody running ubuntu inside of Windows in here?

[20:06] <oerheks> patriksarah, and what marwell chip exactly? lspci or lspusb would show
[20:06] <oerheks> and what ubuntu version
[20:08] <patriksarah> oerheks, I currently have Marvell Avastar model 88W8897 which doestn support monitor mode. But apparently the driver "mwl8k" can be installed for my chipset and works with monitor mode, I dont know if its true or not but worth a try. I am running Ubuntu 21
[20:09] <patriksarah> I found the information here https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/comments/9m2k2f/wifi_monitor_promiscuous_mode_on_marvell_avastar/
[20:11] <oerheks> yes, it is part of linux-firmware.. not sure what driver does support monitor mode, maybe that url https://github.com/kaloz/mwlwifi ..
[20:12] <oerheks> lots of steps to do, there is no easy mode :-D
[20:18] <patriksarah> damn it lost connection
[20:19] <patriksarah>  I seem to loose the wifi when im at home, and shortly after visiting a shopify account weirdly enough
[21:19] <jhutchins> anddam: No sarcasm intended.  I know some people who have written pretty big stuff, you could be next.

[21:35] <Kangarooo> or buuble notification  https://askubuntu.com/questions/1388387/how-to-make-fake-apport-crash-to-come-up-in-notification-and-bar-so-i-can-test
[21:36] <Maik> Kangarooo: please do not cross post
[21:39] <babyface> I have change the resolution in the grub settings to 1280x1024 but when ubuntu server boots it reverts to 640x480 how do I remain the 1280x1024 resolution?
[21:43] <rdrm> babyface: it shouldn't matter for a server, right?
[21:44] <rdrm> do you have a GUI installed on this "server"?
[21:44] <rdrm> You could look into grub-customizer, but perhaps you just need to look into changing the grub config and then using update-grub
[21:50] <segamain> Why are there only 22 people on OFTC ubuntu
[21:50] <segamain> ???
[21:52] <Kangarooo> @Maik it from kubuntu but package apport is in ubuntu also so its from main sources supported package.
[21:55] <sarnold> segamain: I'm surprised it's even that many
[21:58] <segamain> sarnold what the fuck main ??? you're the dude or the chick from the Debian Channel are you like running multiple
[21:58] <segamain> os's at the same time
[21:59] <Maik> Kangarooo: asking in one support channel should be sufficient enough
[21:59] <Maik> probably no one knows the answer
[22:01] <segamain> hey I've heard rumors that I can Use Fruity Loops Studio on Ubuntu is that true ??
[22:01] <segamain> is there a way ??
[22:01] <sarnold> segamain: I'm all over the place
[22:02] <oerheks> no, FL studio it is paid
[22:03] <segamain> oerheks: I meant the demo version dude/chick don't worry I'm broke as hell too
[22:04] <ravage>  https://www.reddit.com/r/FL_Studio/comments/4ucx0i/tutorial_how_to_install_fl_studio_on_linux/ it seems to run okay with wine but that's not really something we can give support for here
[22:04] <oerheks> no, there is no deb download :-D
[22:04] <ravage> Give it a try if you want
[22:04] <oerheks> so, use ubuntu-studio
[22:05] <segamain> sarnold: you're a fricking legend main. You helped me so much already and you're probably gonna help me more xD <3
[22:06] <sarnold> segamain: maybe.. I don't know anything about fruity loops ;) hehe
[22:10] <segamain> ravage: thanks main is there a channel about wine ?
[22:11] <ravage> https://www.winehq.org/irc
[22:11] <rdrm> wine is forbidden
[22:12] <segamain> oerheks: I'm used to FL i don't want to learn new DAW's, lmms already fucked my me up enough
[22:12] <segamain> rdrm: what ?? how
[22:12] <rdrm> sorry it's a reference to a poem by Rumi
[22:14] <segamain> rdrm: you scared the shit out of me
[22:15] <rdrm> try to be a little more professional fr fr no cap, i don't know if anyone cares but you might get in trouble
[22:15] <webchat23> wine may not be forbidden but it sure runs like crap most the time
[22:15] <segamain> how can I locate a file I just downloaded on ubuntu is it apt search ??
[22:16] <rdrm> is it part of a package?
[22:16] <segamain> rdrm: no it's just a file
[22:17] <rdrm> how did you download it
[22:17] <rdrm> Firefox usually downloads to ~/Downloads
[22:17] <segamain> rdrm: stop pranking me
[22:17] <segamain> rdrm: i used apt do install
[22:17] <rdrm> if you use wget, it downloads to the same directory unless specified
[22:17] <rdrm> apt installs packages... so are you looking for a file from a package that apt installed?
[22:17] <babyface> "<rdrm> babyface: it shouldn't matter for a server, right?" -  ofc it matters!
[22:18] <oerheks> where are .deb package stored, interesting you did not find the answer yourseld..
[22:18] <rdrm> babyface: my server is a laptop which never has the lid opened, i dunno what grub looks like
[22:19] <babyface> how do I increase the resolution to 1280x1024 when running without a windows manager?
[22:24] <rdrm> babyface: edit /etc/default/grub the line that says "#GRUB_GFXMODE=" and uncomment it (remove the #) and put in your preferred resolution "GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x1024", save the file and then do "sudo update-grub"
[22:24] <genii> Alternately use fbset
[22:24] <babyface> genii, what's that?
[22:25] <genii> It's an utility to set the reolution of the framebuffer, on the fly
[22:25] <oerheks> do it proper with grub
[22:25] <genii> Not installed by default

[22:28] <marc__> Anyone know how i can setp nvidia control panel to enable GPU fan settings and set them to 100% and then set the powermizer to (prefer maximum performance)
[22:29] <marc__> its annoying having to set these every time i start up machine and game
[22:41] <jhutchins> marc__: I hate to say "not in this channel", but that's something Nvidia knows.  They build the drivers and control panel, they determine what the switches are and what can be permanently set.
[22:41] <jhutchins> marc__: The fans _should_ be adaptive, they should rev up as you use the GPU and as it builds heat.  It shouldn't require a manual intervention.
[22:41] <marc__> its very annoying
[22:42] <jhutchins> marc__: It sounds like you want the fans at full even when they're not needed.
[22:42] <jhutchins> marc__: That would be something, again, to take up with nvidia support.
[22:43] <jhutchins> marc__: They're not _real_ responsive to the relatively tiny Linux market, but at least they've got drivers.
[22:43] <marc__> yea it stops any chance of this gpu overheating i had to repai it once already and i cannot affort current gpu prices
[22:43] <jhutchins> marc__: It's at least worth looking around their site.
[22:44] <marc__> i stuck this gpu in the oven
[22:45] <rdr> I gave the gpu an oven, gpus love ovens
[22:55] <marc__> just worked out how to alter nvidia settings in a file made a file called nv1.run did chmod +x nv1.2 then added two commands to it one for fan and the other for powermizer now all i go to typ is ./nv1.run and its done
[22:57] <marc__> the lines to add to the file are
[22:57] <marc__> nvidia-settings -a "[gpu: 0] / GpuPowerMizerMode = 1"
[22:57] <marc__> nvidia-settings -a '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1' -a '[fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=99'
[22:58] <tomreyn> !paste | marc__
[22:59] <marc__> https://pastebin.com/VhspzUBv
[23:01] <marc__> you can make a file called nv1stop.run too and do the reverse to set it to auto after you finish playing games
[23:05] <tomreyn> marc__: unless you're talking to someone in particular, it might be better to write a blog post on this or similar.
[23:27] <jhutchins> tomreyn: Your modem can't handle two lines of text?
