| tomreyn | OvenWerks: to your original question: https://www.baeldung.com/linux/memory-overcommitment-oom-killer | 14:38 |
|---|---|---|
| tomreyn | also https://www.kernel.org/doc/gorman/html/understand/understand016.html for background info (but i'm not sure this still applies 100%) | 14:39 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: thanks. It has only happened a few times so far. It is anoying that it kills everything open on the desktop. This laptops primary mission (well one of them) is to run waydroid. I don't remember if the waydroid I have was installed with apt or not.... I thinkl yes but from a ppa. anyway, it was troublesome to set up so I am not enthused about up grading before the next lts. There are | 22:59 |
| OvenWerks | also parts of this laptop that need a more current kernel than 22.04 so that the touchscreen/touchpad work. | 22:59 |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: Also see the part from tomreyn above. I'm not sure if it addresses systemd-oomd which, I'm fairly certain, is active as well. | 23:00 |
| Eickmeyer | TBH, I haven't experienced your bug or mine on 23.10. | 23:01 |
| OvenWerks | tomreyn: Thank you. It used to be that processes that hadn't woke up for a while got killed sooner too. I will remember the no overcommit option along with swapoff for recording. Any of the recording sessions I have done don't need too much memeory anyway. | 23:04 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: yeah I saw that I was typing already ;) I think I have only lost my session twice. | 23:07 |
| tomreyn | Eickmeyer: oh good point, i totally neglected systemd-oomd - i haven't read up on how it works, yet, but *hopefully* it doesn't override the kernel configuration | 23:07 |
| tomreyn | OvenWerks: ^ | 23:08 |
| Eickmeyer | tomreyn: Sadly, aiui, it does. 😖 | 23:08 |
| * Eickmeyer runs, at minimum, 16 GB these days. | 23:09 | |
| * tomreyn mumbles uninterpretable words into his non-existent beard. | 23:10 | |
| * OvenWerks can run a session on 8gb or less mostly | 23:10 | |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: All bets are off when you introduce a web browser into that, such as Firefox. | 23:11 |
| OvenWerks | I was talking recording session | 23:11 |
| Eickmeyer | Yeah, I knew what you meant. ;) | 23:12 |
| OvenWerks | Withh FF I need swap | 23:12 |
| OvenWerks | (+16gb) | 23:12 |
| Eickmeyer | . /swapon, /swapoff, the swapper. 😂 | 23:12 |
| * Eickmeyer makes a mental note to add a swap toggle to Ubuntu Studio Audio Config | 23:14 | |
| OvenWerks | cron is more useful | 23:20 |
