EickmeyerJust need to manually add a swap partition or swap file.00:00
EickmeyerIf you need it.00:00
=== NotEickmeyer is now known as Eickmeyer
OvenWerksEickmeyer: after a few firefox OOM crashes...01:07
EickmeyerYeah, that's a good reason.01:08
* OvenWerks opens too many tabs at a time01:08
OvenWerksEickmeyer: I am guessing that sleep no longer uses swap?01:08
OvenWerksI had heard at one time it did01:09
EickmeyerSleep doesn't use swap. Hibernate did.01:09
* OvenWerks doesn't know the difference01:09
EickmeyerHibernate saves RAM to disk.01:09
EickmeyerSleep just keeps RAM running.01:09
OvenWerksuntill I got the laptop, I had it set to never sleep or hibernate01:10
OvenWerksSo sleep uses power and hibernate does not.01:10
EickmeyerIn order to hibernate, you must have exactly as much swap as RAM or more.01:10
EickmeyerCorrect.01:10
* OvenWerks tries to thin k if that is useful..01:11
EickmeyerJust makes it so that you don't have to shut down all of your applications if you have them running, makes boot faster.01:11
EickmeyerThat said, I think Ubuntu has hibernate disabled and it's a pain to enable even with equivalent swap/RAM.01:12
EickmeyerI don't use it, honestly.01:12
OvenWerksyeah, I started doing a shutdown to save batteries during travel... it took so long to shut down (thankyou snap which for some reason can keep shutdown suspended forever)01:13
EickmeyerHmmm... most recent versions of snapd are supposed to have that fixed.01:14
OvenWerksI ended up thinking was shutdown, closed the lid which confused it to bits and arived at the other end with a quite warm machiine.01:14
OvenWerksI had to hold the power button long enough to kill it to get it to do anything01:14
OvenWerksfixed how long ago?01:15
EickmeyerMonth or so. You might try running "sudo snap refresh" to see if everything is updated.01:15
OvenWerksUg, anothhert pop up that says firefox will update in 13 daysbut no way to update it (with a button click)01:16
EickmeyerThat's supposed to be fixed with the most recent snapd (fixed this past week)01:17
EickmeyerQuit firefox, "sudo snap refresh", open firefox.01:18
OvenWerksso I guess it will fix itself in 13 days ...01:18
EickmeyerNope. Don't wait that long.01:18
OvenWerkssudo snap refresh01:18
OvenWerks[sudo] password for len: 01:18
OvenWerksAll snaps up to date.01:18
EickmeyerIs firefox really closed?01:18
EickmeyerLike, process exited?01:18
OvenWerksah, it is doing something this time01:19
* OvenWerks hopes he doesn't loose his settings this time01:20
EickmeyerShouldn't. Settings are in your home directory, the snap is in /var/snaps01:20
OvenWerksgoing from 22.10 to 23.04 did01:21
OvenWerksAnyway. it seems my settings/bookmarks are still there01:21
EickmeyerYeah, I know, but that seems more like a weird glitch than anything.01:21
OvenWerksso I should try shutting down some time and see if it shuts down quick. The idea that there should be a delayed shutdown doesn't make sense. Generally people do a shutdown cause they need to go... now not sometime soon.01:24
OvenWerksAnyway. I am thinking to nuc the windows partition because I have to reset the bios just to use it and the only think not working is the camera. It seems the camera used to work when there was a camera on/off switch (same module) but it doesn't any more because the button to turn it on is no longer there01:27
EickmeyerRight. I think that's more of a systemd thing than anything where it's trying to stop daemons and it's getting hung confirming something is stopping because it's not coming back stoped.01:27
OvenWerks There must be some way of sending the HW a signal to turn on but it is not important enough to me (my wife would like it :) to worry. Apparently windows has a softswitch to turn it on... a privacy thing.01:28
OvenWerksso I should have room for a swap.01:29
* OvenWerks notes that the module for the camera does load, so it is detected.01:32
