[07:54] OvenWerks: opinion on the 14 vs the 24? [07:58] The 14 is 2x as much as the 24. [12:24] Well, I found a 24 locally so I'm picking that up tomorrow [15:56] Eickmeyer: Where would be the best place to open a ticket for kde/plasma issues? The Ubuntu Studio bug tracker or the Kubuntu one? [15:57] BrianHechinger[m: "ubuntu-bug {package name}" in a terminal window. [15:57] It's all Ubuntu, there is no division. [15:57] I don't know what package to blame it on though. :-D [15:57] What's the problem? [16:03] https://askubuntu.com/questions/1404013/screen-becomes-fuzzy-ubuntu-studio-22-04 [16:07] BrianHechinger[m: I *think* that's a known bug with the Nvidia drivers, not with plasma. [16:07] Either that or Mesa. [16:07] I can't reproduce on my hardware using same drivers though. [16:07] Hmmm. [16:07] Have you tried disconnecting/reconnecting your monitor? [16:09] On my hardware, using the same drivers, it appeared fuzzy so I just disconnected/reconnected and it was fine. *shrug* [16:18] I'll try that next time. [16:28] Nope, didn't help. [16:35] :/ [16:35] Well, I'm sure it's not a plasma bug because plasma doesn't work that intricately. Try adjusting your font hinting? [16:37] Ok. What does that mean? :-D [16:37] vm, I see more than that is weird. [16:38] It *almost* seems like your native res and your output res are out of alignment. [16:38] Some weird anti-aliasing going on. [16:38] Check your nvidia-settings. [16:40] And also check to make sure you don't have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file that could be mucking things up. [16:43] just the one that nvidia-settings made [16:44] and nvidia-settings shows that it's a 2560x1440 display (which it is) [16:44] Display Configuration agrees [16:44] BrianHechinger[m: Yeah, that's the culpret. I've had nothing but bad experiences with the xorg.conf files. X11 doesn't need them anymore, and Nvidia hasn't figured that out yet. Delete it. [16:45] ok [16:47] Just let System Settings > Display Configuration handle stuff and you'll be fine. No need for nvidia-settings to do it. [16:48] If you have hybrid graphics (like a laptop), install plasma-optimus (a tool I forked/rewrote) and you'll have a nice mode switcher. [16:48] desktop, so no integrated graphics [16:49] Gotcha. [16:50] I'm assuming I need to relog for that change to take effect? [16:58] Still experiencing the same issue even with the xorg.conf file moved out of the way. :( [16:58] Dangit... [16:59] I'm willing to bet it's mesa. [16:59] Let me get the package name. [17:00] Should I re-enabled the newer mesa stuff? [17:00] Actually, let's try this. [17:01] "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-nvidia-510". I'm willing to bet that's a good starting point, and if that's not the culpret, they'll at least redirect it. [17:01] Attach your screenshot to the bug report. [17:02] Mesa mostly covers intel anyhow. [17:13] i know it's most common in ubuntu to just go with a solution once someonehas figured it out and put it into the distro, but i'm looking for a deeper understanding of how ubuntu-studio automagically creates nodes/clients in jack that relate to programs i'm running as well as soundcards. i know when i plug-in/unplug my USBDAC, it creates and destroys things in Carla. where should i start learning [17:13] deeper? [17:14] "Mesa mostly covers intel anyhow." <- Yeah, I had been tracking the kisak repo but thought mesa was mostly for amd/intel so when it didn't have jammy yet I just skipped it for now. [17:15] mstrgecko: studio-controls creates pulse audio bridges, but nothing else. Any other client is created by the application. (this includes the device drivers creating the devices you see in Carla) [17:15] !studio-controls | mstrgecko [17:15] mstrgecko: Studio Controls is the application through which audio is configured in Ubuntu Studio. It configures Jack, sets the CPU governor, and ensures the user has realtime audio permissions. For more info, see !jack and https://ovenwerks.github.io/studio-controls/ [17:16] Also [17:16] !jack | mstrgecko [17:16] mstrgecko: The JACK Audio Connection Kit is a sound server meant for professional applications, allowing different audio protocols and applications to interconnect in nearly unlimited ways. This is the core of Ubuntu Studio's audio workflow. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK for more information on JACK in general. [17:16] also [17:16] !morehelp | mstrgecko [17:16] mstrgecko: #ubuntustudio sometimes cannot answer your questions in a timely matter, or simply lacks the capacity. For additional sources of help, try #ubuntu if your issue is of a technical nature, or #lau (Linux Audio Users) or #opensourcemusicians if it has to do with the audio stack. [17:17] Oh, I didn't know about the pipe thing for those bot commands. That's nifty [17:17] * That's nifty. [17:21] BrianHechinger[m: to clarify, the device driver is creating the the nodes in carla for my USBDAC? [17:21] yes [17:22] every app (drivers included) is responsible for its own connections into jack. [17:22] bug 1970458 [17:22] Bug 1970458 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-510 (Ubuntu) "Screen becomes fuzzy" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1970458 [17:22] Eickmeyer: if you wanted to follow along [17:23] Holup.... your hardware itself is heavily modified???? [17:23] BrianHechinger[m: ^ ? [17:24] huh? [17:24] You referring to this? `It's heavily modded BattleTech which sometimes needs killing.` [17:24] "It's heavily modded BattleTech which sometimes needs killing." [17:24] Yes. [17:24] the game is modded [17:24] Ohhhhhh [17:25] Well, a heavily modded game could almost certainly cause it. [17:26] no, any game causes it. Sometimes the screensaver being on too long causes it. [17:26] s/no/No/ [17:26] Ah, I see. [17:26] Well, expect a few questions along those lines. [21:14] opps he already quit... the answer would have been zita-ajbridge
