Tomasm21Hello there08:48
Tomasm21Is this irc chat is about Linux Xubuntu?08:48

ubottuTomasm21: Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic08:50
Tomasm21I have just installed Xubuntu onto PC along with Win10. This time not onto VM. Internet speed unlike on VM reaches full 1 gbps.08:52
Tomasm21Programs respond faster than on vm08:52
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, that's the way to go08:52
Tomasm21However I'm not satisfied how music plays on rhythmbox. All file formats. Also music onto mozilla firefox on youtube.. AUDIO is stuttering. And on the upper right corner of the screen Audio slider keeps appearing08:54
Tomasm21I have just installed it.08:54
Tomasm21Is this due to audio drivers?08:54
Tomasm21]Or codecs missing?08:54
Tomasm21usual videos play onto parabole media player. But: 08:56
Tomasm21Sometimes the player unexpectedly crashes. Sometimes movie fail to render when selecting any movie region with slider. Sometimes audio plays but movie video is stuck. Is this because Linux is unable to do it right?08:56
Tomasm21[4:25 AM]08:56
Tomasm21I suppose there are no problems with codecs. Otherwise there would be no any video or audio.08:56
Tomasm21How to solve problems video AUDIO?08:57
Tomasm21and video.08:57
Tomasm21Why it keeps stuttering?08:57
Tomasm21on playback08:57
Tomasm21I thought during installation process it iunstalled all audio/video drivers properly. And codecs.09:01
Tomasm21Should I try to do it separately?09:01
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, what is your gpu?09:03
Tomasm21geforce 980 gtx09:03
Tomasm21on windows everything works perfectly09:03
Tomasm21Thouigh I remember when I installed Win10 it also had problems with audio stutering09:04
diogenes_Vx15with proprietary driver?09:04
Tomasm21I don't know of its drivers. 09:04
diogenes_Vx15did you install nvidia driver?09:05
Tomasm21But as I rememebr I explicitly  was searcing for motherboard and other drivers on windows.09:05
Tomasm21In time the problem solved itself and the audio stopped stuttering09:05
Tomasm21maybe because of auto-updates09:05
gnrpTomasm21: This sounds to me like the device loses its audio device and gets it again09:06
gnrp!paste09:06
ubottuFor posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use https://dpaste.com | To post !screenshots use https://imgur.com | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.09:06
gnrpmaybe do the same (play audio, wait for stuff to happen). Then open a terminal, run the command `dmesg` and paste it09:07
Tomasm21On Xubuntu yesterday right after installing I opened Software & Updates and tab Additional drivers. It found a list of NVIDIA drivers. I pressed only the first one and then button "Apply changes". It installed it. But it didn't helped09:07
Tomasm21I have just opened Software & Updates window and tab Additional drivers. It found similar list of NVIDIA drivers again.09:08
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, do you also have an intel integrated GPU?09:08
Tomasm21Yes I also have intel integrated GPU.09:09
Tomasm21I don't know what exactly Xubuntu is using09:09
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, then open nvidia settings09:11
diogenes_Vx15check in there what's being used09:11
Tomasm21How to open nvidia settings?09:11
diogenes_Vx15from menu09:11
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, also gnrp asked you to pastebin dmesg, open terminal and run: dmesg | nc termbin.com 99909:13
diogenes_Vx15you gonna get an url in terminal, copy it and paste here.09:13
Tomasm21alright.. trying to do this.09:14
diogenes_Vx15if you encounter any issues just ask.09:14
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/LFuZrZA.png09:16
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, and as you are a new user, don't be afraid of terminal, many new users think that Linux is difficult because you need to use terminal and run commnds but that's not a valid argument anymore, you can perfectly use Linux without any terminal whatsoever, for normal users it's only relevant when you encounter some issues and you need to troubleshoot, the same way in windows you need to tweak some registers keys when 09:17
diogenes_Vx15you encounter some issues and so on, but if you learn terminal you will actually find it more useable and a more productive way to do stuff.09:17
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok run the same command but with sudo oike this: sudo dmesg | nc termbin.com 999909:18
diogenes_Vx15you gonna be asked for a password, ype your password and hit enter and keep in mind the password is not displayed in the terminal.09:19
diogenes_Vx15like*09:19
Tomasm21yes I ran it with sudo.09:19
Tomasm21It didn't showed anything in console09:20
diogenes_Vx15you need to add an extra 9 there, 9999 at the and instead of 99909:20
Tomasm21oh 999909:21
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/qj9b09:22
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok now open the menu and look for nvidia settings and open it.09:23
diogenes_Vx15gnrp, his dmesg: https://termbin.com/qj9b09:25
Tomasm21the menu has no exaxctly "nvidia settings"09:29
gnrpTomasm21: I guess this is the offending line09:30
gnrp[ 2411.120823] usb 3-3: reset high-speed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd09:30
gnrpwhat audio card do you use, anyway?09:31
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok again in terminal run: inxi -Gxxc0 | nc termbin.com 999909:31
diogenes_Vx15then: inxi -Axxc0 | nc termbin.com 999909:31
diogenes_Vx15so we gonna get both video and audio devices.09:32
Tomasm21I can't say what audio card is exactlly. I think Realtek some variant.. as I rememeber from Wndows.09:32
Tomasm21I can check there again09:32
Tomasm21ok running the command09:32
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/jz2dd09:33
Tomasm21My processor is not Intel Xeon.09:34
Tomasm21It's Intel i5 3.2 4460 GHz 09:34
Tomasm213.2 Ghz, 4460 processor release number09:34
Tomasm21software updater window of additional drivers: https://imgur.com/tKifctu.png09:38
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, i also had some audio issues when using pipewire so my advice is to disable pipewire and test with pulse only but maybe gnrp has a better idea.09:38
Tomasm21Yesterday I installed "Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-525 (proprietary, tested)". But today I see this line again09:40
Tomasm21I don't know what is pipewire or pulse09:41
Tomasm21I have audio issues both on internal linux audio player and on mozilla firefox browser09:41
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, run in terminal: sudo systemctl disable --global pipewire09:42
Tomasm21But when I watch movies on Parole media center then Movie audio plays fluently09:42
Tomasm21but videos itseld doesn;t work well.09:42
Tomasm21it writes that it removed pipewire.socked and pipewire.service. I will try to launch audio file again. Should I also reboot the OS?09:45
Tomasm21currebtly it still is stuttering.09:45
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, i'd reboot.09:45
Tomasm21rebooting..09:45
Tomasm21Nor pipewire off nor rebooting helped09:52
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, run: inxi -Axxc0 | nc termbin.com 999909:53
Tomasm21Audio's stuttering. Here is the the image of the OS screen. In the upper right corner this audio slider banner notification keeps appearing when sound audio is stuttering: https://imgur.com/xY13zQG.png09:53
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/jwuo09:55
Tomasm21I can go to windows and launch Speccy program to show all system devices information. Copy it and come to Linux there and paste here in HexChat.09:58
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, open a web browser and just drag-and-drop the audio file into the browser window, see if it is playing well there,09:59
Tomasm21Oh I'm impressed that it is possible. It plays on the web browser. But sound still keeps stuttering.10:00
Tomasm21Can you tell what terminal command is to find information about motherboard type and model?10:01
Tomasm21As I remmeber smth like Z97 or smth10:01
Tomasm21oh it is dmidecode -t 210:04
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, for full system info run: inxi -Fxx10:04
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/1gad10:06
Tomasm21What I think is that I need this driver: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-Z97-HD3-rev-21/support#support-dl-driver10:07
Tomasm21specifically for my motherboard. I remember I explicitly installed it on Windows back then10:08
Tomasm21but audio was still stuttering on Windows.10:08
Tomasm21but in time it stopped10:08
Tomasm21BUT it is Windows driver10:09
Tomasm21not Linux10:09
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok let's try a few tricks if you have time?10:11
Tomasm21lets10:11
diogenes_Vx15run: cat /etc/pulse/daemon.conf | nc termbin.com 999910:12
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/56kd10:14
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, now run: pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY mousepad /etc/pulse/daemon.conf10:17
Tomasm21ok launched. It opened text in mousepad10:21
Tomasm21It warns me that ot runs in root and I may harm my system10:22
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, carefully add at the end of that file these few lines: https://privatebin.io/?b561460ebde394cd#DS93jyzfvhx45GmfqLDaFUSnuRaMPAHP1HwK1PaU9y4m10:23
Tomasm21Should I add semicilons in fron of each line?10:24
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/WBbIv2o.png10:24
Tomasm21semicolons*10:24
diogenes_Vx15nope just save changes and close the file.10:26
Tomasm21ok saved and closed?10:26
Tomasm21Should I launch music?10:26
diogenes_Vx15now run this: pulseaudio -k10:26
Tomasm21ok launched10:27
diogenes_Vx15ok check audio10:27
Tomasm21still stuttering10:28
Tomasm21stuttering process is this: it jumps to full sound level but also simultaneosly the sound gets muted. Then sound level is reset.10:29
Tomasm21It all happens in miliseconds10:29
Tomasm21it feels like some contact is mufunctioning10:29
Tomasm21malfunctioning10:30
Tomasm21but on Windows 10 everything works perfectly10:30
Tomasm21I installed Xubuntu in dual boot10:30
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok our last attempt is to go the othe way around and replace pulse with pipewire completely,10:34
Tomasm21be advise that I can't find nvidia settings10:35
Tomasm21Should I install all additional drivers that are found in Software & Updates?10:36
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, let's not bother about nvidia for now.10:37
Tomasm211 proprietary driver is in use10:37
Tomasm21ok tell me what to do10:37
diogenes_Vx15run: sudo apt install pipewire-audio-client-libraries10:37
Tomasm21I will keep doing listening stutering music playback10:38
diogenes_Vx15tell me when done.10:38
Tomasm21done10:39
diogenes_Vx15sudo apt install wireplumber pipewire-media-session-10:39

diogenes_Vx15find there a line: ## Properties for the DSP configuration. below that line find: default.clock.min-quantum   = 1610:57
diogenes_Vx15comment out this line so it reads: #default.clock.min-quantum   = 1610:58
Tomasm21found and commented10:59
Tomasm21to save and close?10:59
diogenes_Vx15and just below the line: ## Properties for the DSP configuration add the following: https://privatebin.io/?ad4ed205c6a22ef3#A9211jTDqnCFmUoLwixWpfGUQ7uvRtRDLa8gH4vsCabA10:59
Tomasm21like this: https://imgur.com/LMbDQpN.png11:01
Tomasm21?11:01
diogenes_Vx15no, i mean not the link itself but you need to open the link and copy its context.11:01
Tomasm21ahh11:02
diogenes_Vx15i suspect you did the same thing with pulseaudio config? :)11:02
diogenes_Vx15my bad sorry, i should have explained better.11:02
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/mres39T.png11:03
Tomasm21My bad sorry I should have understood such an easy idea11:03
Tomasm21save and close?11:03
diogenes_Vx15save, close, reboot.11:03
Tomasm21Now it's even worse. It is stuttering. But upon any stutter the pipewire jumps from one device to the other and stays there. I mean the device is changed from the "Built-In Audio Analog Stereo" to the "GM204 High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI2)". And audio cannot be heard on that device.11:16
Tomasm21I manually chhange back to "Built-In Audio Analog Stereo"11:17
diogenes_Vx15ok let's see if you your pulse config: cat /etc/pulse/daemon.conf | nc termbin.com 999911:17
Tomasm21And audio can be heard. But as soon as stutter occurs it jumps back to "GM204 High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI2)".11:17
Tomasm21When I rebooted I also visited Windows 10 and made sure that sound does not stutter on that system.11:19
Tomasm21ok executing your command, hold on..11:19
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/nohs11:20
diogenes_Vx15sudo apt purge pipewire wireplumber11:21
Tomasm21purged11:22
diogenes_Vx15pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf11:23
diogenes_Vx15tell me if it's an empty file11:24
Tomasm21yes the file is empty11:25
diogenes_Vx15write there: options snd_hda_intel position_fix=111:25
diogenes_Vx15save, close.11:25
Tomasm21huh?11:26
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/hUvExeY.png11:26
Tomasm21it happened when I tried to save11:28
diogenes_Vx15ok mousepad is not nano ) pich save as instead11:28
diogenes_Vx15save it in /etc/modprobe.d/ with the name alsa-base.conf11:29
Tomasm21just before saving look: https://imgur.com/wp7G2E7.png11:30
Tomasm21in that directory I see that the file exists and occupies 2.5 kb11:30
Tomasm21how is this possible?11:30
Tomasm21should I still save?11:30
diogenes_Vx15yep11:32
Tomasm21ok I replaced it11:33
diogenes_Vx15cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf11:33
diogenes_Vx15make sure you see options snd_hda_intel position_fix=111:33
Tomasm21I just don't understand: https://imgur.com/EYaLJy8.png11:35
Tomasm21we saved it11:35
Tomasm21but it doesn't exist11:35
Tomasm21music is playing11:35
Tomasm21is music destroying thhe file?11:36
diogenes_Vx15there is modrobe instead of modorobe11:36
diogenes_Vx15modprobe*11:36
diogenes_Vx15you missed a p11:36
Tomasm21ahhh.. sorry. My bad. A typo11:37
Tomasm21there is line: `options snd_hda_intel position_fix=1`11:37
diogenes_Vx15now run: mv ~/.config/pulse/ ~/.config/pulse.old11:37
Tomasm21ok I hope renamed11:39
diogenes_Vx15mv ~/.config/pavucontrol.ini ~/.config/pavucontrol.ini.bak11:39
diogenes_Vx15whenever you get no output after running acommand, it mostly means that the command was successful.11:40
Tomasm21I tried not to make mistakes: https://imgur.com/Ju8FmRX.png11:42
Tomasm21I think the last command has no typos11:42
diogenes_Vx15hmm does it mean you have no pavucontrol? run: dpkg -l | grep pavu11:44
diogenes_Vx15do you get anything?11:44
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/A7JfpQH.png11:45
diogenes_Vx15ok then, run this: sudo update-initramfs -u11:45
diogenes_Vx15after it's done, fingers crossed and reboot.11:46
diogenes_Vx15wait a few more things let's change before you reboot.11:47
Tomasm21ok it "update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.19.0-38-generic"11:47
Tomasm21rebooting..11:47
diogenes_Vx15wait11:47
Tomasm21yes?11:47
diogenes_Vx15a few more things11:47
Tomasm21ok11:47
diogenes_Vx15pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY mousepad /etc/pulse/daemon.conf11:48
diogenes_Vx15make sure the lines: ;realtime-scheduling ;default-fragments and ;default-fragment-size-msec all have ; in front of them.11:49
diogenes_Vx15only the last ones don't have.11:50
diogenes_Vx15you gonna encounter 2 occurences.11:50
Tomasm21Yes those three entries have semicilons in front. Acknowledged11:53
diogenes_Vx15at the end of that file append: realtime-scheduling = yes11:53
Tomasm21closed the file11:53
Tomasm21reopening11:53
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/eFdWgkV.png11:54
Tomasm21I hope this looks fine11:54
Tomasm21saving..11:54
diogenes_Vx15now run: pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY mousepad /etc/pulse/default.pa find the line: load-module module-udev-detect and at the end add: tsched=0 so it reads: load-module module-udev-detect tsched=011:55
diogenes_Vx15you can just hit arrow up in terminal and just delete the path and add a new one.11:55
diogenes_Vx15instead of typing everything, or just copy/paste.11:56
Tomasm21yes I opened it fast changing the ending line. the file name11:56
Tomasm21you mean like this: https://imgur.com/sS2idNx.png11:58
Tomasm21?11:58
Tomasm21confirm and I save and close11:59
diogenes_Vx15yes now: s,c,r (save, close, reboot)11:59
Tomasm21rebooting..11:59
Tomasm21diogenes...12:03
Tomasm21You endeavours will not forgotten. Xubuntu system now does not should stutter notifications. But..12:04
Tomasm21I still hear stuttering in audio saound12:05
Tomasm21maybe less than before12:05
Tomasm21but still12:05
Tomasm21or I think like it12:05
Tomasm21does not show notifications*12:05
Tomasm21The sound is not crystal clear like in Windows 1012:06
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, so something has improved a bit, you can try this too: env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf12:06
diogenes_Vx15and change from =1 to =212:06
Tomasm21Sound is like from an old record player of vanilla LPs. Crackles can be heard in audio. But Xubunti does not show it12:08
Tomasm21ok doing commands again12:08
Tomasm21Sometimes the sound is good12:08
Tomasm21but sometimes with crackles12:09
Tomasm21ok setting to: "options snd_hda_intel position_fix=2"12:12
Tomasm21saved. closed12:12
diogenes_Vx15sudo update-initramfs -u12:12
diogenes_Vx15after it's done, reboot12:14
Tomasm21updated initramfs12:14
Tomasm21rebotting..12:14
Tomasm21Now stutter still occurs but it is a bit lighter. By my subjective opinion music sound is slightly better and more clear. Unlike before stutter this stutter cause audio volume bar not to jump by half length forward and mute. This one stutter causes sound handle tremble in place. It suddenly jumps in low amplitude.12:22
Tomasm21But sound change notification icon shows again12:23
Tomasm21in the upp right corner12:23
Tomasm21I blame the audio driver12:24
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, yeah, at this point i can only suggest you try a newer kernel aslo =1 option seems better.12:26
Tomasm21should I change the "options snd_hda_intel position_fix=2" to "options snd_hda_intel position_fix=1"?12:27
diogenes_Vx15yes, that's a better option i suppose.12:27
Tomasm21and again to do  sudo update-initramfs -u12:28
Tomasm21?12:28
Tomasm21and reboot?12:28
diogenes_Vx15first try an hwe kernel12:28
Tomasm21tell me how12:28
diogenes_Vx15run: apt search linux-generic-hwe | nc termbin.com 999912:30
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/udnk12:31
diogenes_Vx15also run here in the chat: /exec uname -r12:32
Tomasm21I see line 5.19.0-38-generic12:32
Tomasm21I don't know what it means12:33
Tomasm21wait..12:33
Tomasm21lol it's your line12:33
Tomasm21should instead or uname I write my Nick Name?12:35
Tomasm21of*12:35
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, no no you did all fine.12:35
diogenes_Vx15looks like you are laready using it, let's try a ninja kernel if you want.12:37
Tomasm21I'm not sure.12:37
Tomasm21If it will sort things out12:37
Tomasm21then yes12:37
diogenes_Vx15one more thing i suggest to go to BIOS, see if secure boot is eanble and if yes then disable it.12:38
diogenes_Vx15sometimes it can cause troubles.12:39
Tomasm21I think it is ON12:39
Tomasm21I;m using UEFI firmware12:39
Tomasm21ok reboting and pressing DEL to get into formware12:39
Tomasm21if I will find that it is ON12:39
Tomasm21I will turn it off, save and exit and reboot12:40
diogenes_Vx15you can use UEFI without secure boot, i'm not saying that disabling it will fix your issue but it's better with it disabled.12:40
Tomasm21I see12:40
Tomasm21diogenes_Vx15 I'm not sure whether my Secure Boot is enabled. Here is what I found out: https://imgur.com/a/vuKiSsN13:19
Tomasm21Windows8 features and Boot Mode13:19
Tomasm21I rebooted again and got into uefi classic mode. Selected windows 8 boot option and then saw there Secure Boot state was set to disabled. But another option "Secure Boot" was with enabled. I changed it to "Disabled."13:50
Tomasm21Then I changed Windows 8 Features to Other Os.13:51
Tomasm21Saved and rebooted.13:51
Tomasm21I suppose the Secure Boot is off. Though I'm not sure.13:51
Tomasm21But audio playback still stutters.13:52

Tomasm21Or maybe you have some extra space which can be unallocated14:09
Tomasm21you could extend it do Linux drive14:09
xu-help82widk what that mean but whats the command to delete the log manualy14:10
Tomasm21rm uvcdynctrl-udev.log14:10
xu-help82wyeah but whats the whole filename14:13
Tomasm21path to it slash filename14:14
xu-help82wsudo rm?14:15
Tomasm21to find its path use: find . -name β€˜file*' where file is your log filename14:16
Tomasm21if the file is in root folder or in the folder that is higher than you14:16
Tomasm21then yes 14:16
Tomasm21with sudo14:16
xu-help82wi cant copy pase in command14:16
Tomasm21write it by hand14:16
Tomasm21you can select and hit ctrl+c and it will still be copied14:17
xu-help82wok it sem to b just the /var/log n not home/14:19
xu-help82wit says access dinied14:20
Tomasm21try with sudo14:22
xu-help82wok mayb i deleted a few but it still says 289.3 GiB USED14:23
xu-help82wyes i did!14:23
Tomasm21Do you have a program Called "Disk Usage Analyzer"? Launch it and it will show what program or file takes what space14:24
Tomasm21Or smth similar program14:24
xu-help82wthat was the only tool i could use to se space but i turned it off now n turned it on maybe its gone14:25
Tomasm21If imporatnt files then don't delete. You need either bigger disk or extra disk partition14:25
Tomasm21download14:25
xu-help82wno14:25
Tomasm21you should know how to solve this quite common problem14:26
xu-help82wok thnx 😊14:26

Tomasm21diogenes?16:36
Tomasm21During that time I did my own improvements and updates. It ruined your built configuration. The system started to stutter and show  notifications like the first time. Then I read again what you wrote in the past and did all those actions with pipewire and pulse.16:38
Tomasm21I got rid of pipewire and edited pulse how you said.16:39
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, and?16:39
Tomasm21I changed to that point when Linux does not show stuttering notifications16:39
Tomasm21But still in the sound some stutters can be heard16:39
Tomasm21And I don't know what to do next and to improve16:40
Tomasm21I tried to search the Internet16:40
Tomasm21and got articles which explain same actions that you offered to me16:40
diogenes_Vx15as i suggested, you can try another kernel.16:40
Tomasm21I am afraid to do this. And I don't know how exactly. I would like that you lead me. But if you don't want then it's ok16:42
Tomasm21Just I need trusted information where it is clearly explained how to change kernels16:42
Tomasm21Should I google it?16:42
Tomasm21Or you can point me to it16:42
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, of course i can help you but first i need to ask you a few questions.16:43
Tomasm21ALso I doubt whether that kernel will certainly be better than thus16:43
Tomasm21current16:43
diogenes_Vx15first i need to know who installed this Xubuntu system for you? yourself or someone else?16:44
Tomasm21IMO chaninging kernel means installing another Linux distribution16:44
diogenes_Vx15no16:44
Tomasm21And I would like stick with Xubuntu16:44
Tomasm21I installed myself. When I was studying Java programming we worked on Xubuntu16:45
Tomasm21but not on real Xubuntu but on Oracle Virtaul Drive16:45
Tomasm21it was real VM Xuvuntu 20.0416:45
Tomasm21Now when I;m at home I decided to continue with real Xubuntu on real METAL along with Windows on dual boot16:46
Tomasm21Instead of using older Xubuntu 20.04.2LTE.iso16:46
Tomasm21I downloaded newest 22.04LTE16:47
Tomasm21and installed it reading and wathcing tutorials on the Internet16:47
Tomasm21and I havne't expected that so16:47
Tomasm21such features like sound can work bad16:48
diogenes_Vx15so you installed it and in case something goes wrong with the new kernel and it won't boot, would you be able to reinstall the system?16:48
Tomasm21Thought I knew that Linux may perform worse than Windows 1016:48
Tomasm21I solely trusted Xubuntu. I didn;t knew that new kernel may not work perfectly16:49
Tomasm21Maybe I should download older ISO16:50
Tomasm21of 20.0416:50
Tomasm21I can reinstall older16:50
Tomasm21I can go to Windows and to Disk Manager and delete these disk partitions where current Linux is installed16:50
diogenes_Vx15Linux does not perform worse but quite the opposite, it's some hardware manufacturers who don't want to support Linux so it's not a Linux issue.16:51
Tomasm21then make space unalloacted 100 GB and install older Xubintu16:51
Tomasm21mmm hardware manufacturers..16:52
Tomasm21Pain to hear it16:52
Tomasm21and I started to like Linux16:52
diogenes_Vx15ok so it's up to you whether you want to try or not.16:54
Tomasm21lets do it16:55
Tomasm21I'm playing with Linux till it works as good as possible16:55
ITA_xHo un problema con il bluetooh su xubuntu. Non mi trova i dispositivi16:55
Tomasm21only don't destroy Windows partition16:55
diogenes_Vx15!it | ITA_x 16:56
ubottuITA_x: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi Β« /join #ubuntu-it Β» senza virgolette)16:56
Tomasm21One of the reasons why I installed Linux on real Metal is because on VM download speeds reached only up to 100mbps16:57
Tomasm21and now on real hardware it reaches 1 gbps16:57
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, changing kernels has nothing to do with partitions or reinstallation of the system.16:57
Tomasm21good16:57
Tomasm21though I don't remember I had problems with sound on Virtual Machine on those Linux Xubuntu16:58
diogenes_Vx15let's first try an older one16:58
Tomasm21I ahven't notixed it there16:58
Tomasm21have not noticed it there*16:58
Tomasm21ok lead me16:59
diogenes_Vx15but you have to be patient becaus i16:59
diogenes_Vx15a bit multitasking16:59
Tomasm21it will be long?16:59
Tomasm21several processes simultaneously17:00
Tomasm21well so be it17:00
diogenes_Vx15apt search linux-image | nc termbin.com 999917:01
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/t57g17:01
Tomasm21I heard low latency solves problems17:03
Tomasm21linux-image-5.15.0-1015-nvidia-lowlatency/jammy-updates,jammy-security 5.15.0-1015.15 amd6417:03
Tomasm21  Signed kernel image nvidia-lowlatency17:03
Tomasm21but other problems may arise somewhere else17:04
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | nc termbin.com 999917:07
Tomasm21https://termbin.com/wbiy17:08
Tomasm21I rememebr when I was installing Linux I selected that boot loader is on the same partition like Xubuntu, and not windows.17:09
Tomasm21I had problems while installing from UEFI. Installation crashed while installing GRUB17:10
Tomasm21I had to reinstall from flash drive17:10
Tomasm21and select Flash drive not being from UEFI17:10
Tomasm21I gues it means MBR17:10
Tomasm21but then on Setup it showed that also Win10 exists on PC17:10
Tomasm21and I chosen to install as Someone else to choose partitions on another disk than Win10 partition17:11
Tomasm21on another disk17:13
Tomasm21not the disk that is small in size and contains only Windows17:13
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok let's try this one: sudo apt install linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-22.0417:15
Tomasm21done17:16
diogenes_Vx15a screenshot17:17
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/fVOmjKd.png and https://imgur.com/dGTjxMr.png17:18
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, reboot.17:18
Tomasm21diogenes_Vx15?17:41
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, yes?17:41
Tomasm21I'm writing from Windows10. Installed HexChat here just to contact you.17:41
Tomasm21Guess what happened17:41
diogenes_Vx15didn't boot?17:42
Tomasm21yes17:42
Tomasm21upon boot it couldn't get cache data from that disk17:42
Tomasm21was black screen with flashing typing pointer17:42
Tomasm21but I was unable to write anyhthing17:42
Tomasm21just to restart by CTRL+ALT+DEL17:43
Tomasm21Should I clean partitions and install same Xubuntu again?17:43
diogenes_Vx15you don't need to reinstall just when you reach the grub screen press arrow down and go to advanced and pick the previous kernel/17:43
Tomasm21ahh17:44
Tomasm21ok lets see17:44
Tomasm21ok back on the original ...38 kerlnel again17:49
Tomasm21there was one more kernel  ending in .3217:49
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok now: sudo apt purge linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-22.0417:50
Tomasm21ok, Removed17:51
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok now we gonna try a ninja kernel.17:52
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, run: wget -qO - https://dl.xanmod.org/archive.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/xanmod-archive-keyring.gpg17:53
Tomasm21entered. Nothing happened. No output17:54
diogenes_Vx15that's good17:55
diogenes_Vx15now17:55
diogenes_Vx15echo 'deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/xanmod-archive-keyring.gpg] http://deb.xanmod.org releases main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xanmod-release.list17:55
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/YYOgXSg.png17:56
diogenes_Vx15sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-xanmod-x64v317:56
Tomasm21done17:57
diogenes_Vx15screenshot17:58
Tomasm21https://imgur.com/scLOER6.png17:58
Tomasm21Do you also have stuttering sound?18:00
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok reboot and do the same procedure with grub but this time pick xanmod18:00
diogenes_Vx15no18:00
Tomasm21It doesn't boot from xanmod either18:08
Tomasm21and even we uninstalled low latency I still saw it in the list of avaialable kernels18:08
Tomasm21I tried to boot form low latency too. It failed too.18:09
Tomasm21Should I/We check all the list available of kernels?18:09
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, ok then, download Ubunto 20.04 and boot it from USB drive, let's see this.18:10
Tomasm21Xubuntu or Ubuntu18:10
diogenes_Vx15Ubuntu because Xubuntu has only 3 years support.18:11
xu-help18whi there, is this where i can get some help with a dual monitor issue on xubuntu?18:11
Tomasm21You mean I should format flash drive and put there ubuntu 20.04? As I remember I also downloaded 22.04 of Ubuntu18:11
Tomasm21but ok I will download 20.0418:11
Tomasm21of Ubuntu18:11
Tomasm21LTS18:12
diogenes_Vx15yes18:12
Tomasm21And I will have to delete partitions, make it unallocated. And install new Ubuntu lime I did with this Xubuntu18:13
Tomasm21like*18:13
Tomasm21and make new partitions18:13
Tomasm21OK...18:13
diogenes_Vx15no18:14
Tomasm21what?18:14
diogenes_Vx15none of those18:14
diogenes_Vx15remember you don't install it but just load live off USB and check the sound18:15
Tomasm21ahh18:15
Tomasm21just to check sound on ubuntu.18:15
Tomasm21in install window "Try Ubuntu"18:16
Tomasm21ok18:16
diogenes_Vx15yes you pick "Try Ubuntu"18:16
xu-help18wdiogenes_Vx15 do you have time to help me18:18
diogenes_Vx15!ask | xu-help18w 18:19
ubottuxu-help18w: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience18:19
xu-help18wok, my problem is that after i upgraded to xubuntu 22, my dual monitors are registered as one big monitor. when i open a program, it opens in between both monitors (they are set up one on top of the other). and if i maximize a window it spans both screens18:21
diogenes_Vx15xu-help18w, try a clean user profile, create a new user and login as a new user and see if all is well, honestly i have zero experience with multimonitor setup.18:25
xu-help82whi watz the diffrens btween amd64.deb n .tar.gz n how do i open these is it possible from snap?18:26
diogenes_Vx15xu-help82w, deb is a Debian package that you install with apt, and .tar.gz is archive that you have to unpack, snap is a package manager.18:28
xu-help82wapt?18:29
xu-help82wi presume i need som kind ofprogram to open? πŸ€”18:30
xu-help82wwinzip πŸ€ͺ18:30
diogenes_Vx15yep like: sudo apt install ./packagename.deb18:31
carwashtime for a bit of google 18:31
Tomasm21diogenes_Vx15, On Ubuntu 20.04 stutters still persists. But those stutters are a bit lighter and more rare than on Xubuntu 22.04.18:51
Tomasm21Ubuntu seemed a bit more original and slighly faster distro.18:52
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, try also this iso: https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/non-free/cd-including-firmware/11.6.0-live+nonfree/amd64/iso-hybrid/debian-live-11.6.0-amd64-xfce+nonfree.iso18:52
Tomasm21diogenes, on Linux Debian 11 sound also stutters. Just like on Ubuntu. But that stutter is weaker than on Xubuntu. On newest Xubuntu sound stutter is the brightest19:30
Tomasm21Strange that on my PC on almost all linuxes I got sound stutter19:31
Tomasm21Amybe the problem are not linuxes19:33
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, that's an unfortunate hardware, igues this issue can be somewhat mitigated but it would take a lot of trial and errors so if you're strong enough then come back tomorrow and we could try more options.19:33
Tomasm21is not*19:33
Tomasm21Ok I will come back tommorow.19:34
Tomasm21I think that if on Windows sound plays clear then it is also possible to do on Linux19:35
Tomasm21It's just strange that for different computers the problem is also different19:35
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, wait19:37
Tomasm21yes..19:37
diogenes_Vx15i've got another thing you can try19:37
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, i'd like you to try a complete different thing, a non-systemd distro that uses plain ALSA without any pulseaudio or pipewire hacks and also supports older hardware and let's see how that goes: http://iso.mxrepo.com/Downloads/Final/antiX-22/antiX-22_x64-full.iso19:40
Tomasm21So I have to make bootable flash and just try this spoecific distribution without install?19:41
Tomasm21ok, doing..19:41
diogenes_Vx15Tomasm21, yes, the same way you've tried the others so far.19:41
