[01:01] <Unit193> kurly: Mainline tends to be more for testing or whatnot, they don't have the Ubuntu patches and aren't supported or recommended for production use (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds), that being said you might have more luck in #ubuntu-kernel, specifically if it's a regression.
[01:02] <Unit193> If you're already going "3rd party", you *could* try Liquorix. :P
[01:15] <kurly> yeah, checked the latest patched 5.15.0, volume keys stop working again
[01:16] <kurly> aware that mainline is largely untested, but 5.17.[4-7] were good :)
[01:22] <Unit193> Redirecting you as that's where the kernel team hangs out and are much more likely to know.
[01:33] <kurly> aye, thanks.
[01:34] <kurly> in less kernel-y news, whenever i lock the laptop, the screen goes off very briefly before turning back on and staying black. do not have a strong opinion between xscreensaver and xfce4-screensaver, so long as there's a basic screen lock?
[01:38] <Unit193> Ensure there's no other lockers installed, just the one you prefer.  xscreensaver worked the best for me, had tried xfce4-screensaver which is a good option too.  Once xscreensaver got systemd support it was all funky on my system so instead I switched to i3lock, which works great.
[01:48] <kurly> hmm looks like just xscreensaver{,-data}
[01:51] <kurly> ah seems better-ish now, maybe some phantom keyboard/mouse input causing the lock screen to pop back up
[01:53] <Unit193> Gremlins.
[10:42] <_QfwfQ_> Hi! I wold really appreciate some hint on how to disable password requirement after lock screen activation... Power management setting doesn't seem to work for me. 
[12:56] <nicoz> [22:09:59] <kryten> Yeah, sorry it took so long for anybody eligible to show up and handle it though.. :3  --> if you give the possibility to collaborate, I can also help in your absence to manage these malicious users
[12:56] <nicoz> ah kryten is offline ;)
[12:56] <nicoz> @Unit193 @krytarik 
[14:47] <centHOGG> good morning, is anyone here running a ryzen 5 rig? Jez wondering if/when the kernel sensors can recognize the cpu/gpu temp
[14:47] <centHOGG> TIA
[20:44] <xu-irc76w> Hello, quick question. "apt list --upgradable" on my XUbuntu 20.04.1 system currently shows 100 packages can be updated. I generally keep my system up-to-date, so there are rarely more than a handful of packages that need attention. Was there a huge release in the past day or two? If so, where can I find announcements when there is a big update
[20:44] <xu-irc76w> like this?
[20:45] <arktvrvs> a lto of packages doesnt always mean a big update.
[20:46] <arktvrvs> sometimes it just means a deep dependency was updated and others had to be rebuilt
[20:46] <xu-irc76w> arktvrvs Thanks...
