[00:00] <Random6> I have ruled out just about everything I can think of, but the problem persists. :(
[00:00] <Random6> I'll show you screenshot one sec
[00:01] <Random6> https://imgur.com/a/r8iprgs
[00:01] <Random6> The issue is in the texture quality seen in the spotlight in this image
[00:01] <Random6> This level of texture quality is on MANY textures.
[00:02] <Random6> in every game I play the texture quality is similar.
[00:02] <Random6> Unfortunately I do now have a screenshot from before the issue startd.
[00:02] <sarnold> heh I was afraid of that :(
[00:03] <Random6> You can imagine the texture quality being much more detailed, sharp, and having more depth.
[00:03] <Random6> Do you think this could be a hardware issue if it persists everywhere?
[00:03] <Random6> So far my laptop hasn't shown any signs of failing devices.
[00:04] <Random6> It is an MSI GS65 stealth thin 8RE. It is quite robust and designed for gaming.
[00:04] <sarnold> it happening in windows is part of why I thought cables :) that's easier to explain than software updates or config changes etc
[00:04] <Random6> I agree .
[00:06] <Random6> OH, the issue persists on the integrated Intel GPU, as well as the dedicated GTX 1060 6GB
[00:06] <Random6> ^ I figured this would also rule out GPU issue
[00:06] <Random6> Some forums allude to correlations with data transfer and processing between the SSD / RAM and CPU
[00:07] <Random6> But that would mean a motherboard / RAM / CPU issue.
[00:07] <sarnold> maybe bios settings?
[00:07] <sarnold> perhaps there used to be 20gigs set aside for the video ram and now there's one gig?
[00:07] <Random6> I haven't checked that yet
[00:08] <Random6> I think it was set to 16 GB last I saw.
[00:08] <Random6> I hard reset the bios, defaults, as well as custom settings, made no difference.
[00:08] <sarnold> :(
[00:08] <Random6> Steam I reinstalled from scratch, as well as the game - so as to wipe profiles and steam settings.
[00:09] <Random6> I have thunderbolt 3, so I could test with an external GPU someday, to rule out hardware issues.
[00:18] <Random6> Is there a possibility the video card bios could be impacted somehow sarnold ?
[00:19] <Random6> I did update it years ago without issue,.
[00:19] <Random6> I wonder if reflashing the vbios might fix that.
[00:22] <sarnold> Random6: it's possible; I think the intel firmwares are in linux-firmware https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+changelog and the nvidia firmwares are scattered in dozens of packages that are a challenge to discover .. try dpkg -l '*nvidia*' | grep ^ii
[01:27] <johnfg> Sorry, was at the 2nd job.  Yes, I'm at tty2, having logged in, no problems and typing this.
[01:27] <johnfg> gnome-initial setup seems to be the culprit.  How do I disable that, when the login is already here?
[04:13] <jean> no
[04:56] <Guest55> Hello. Any guess why nemo doesn't show video thumbnails?
[05:07] <Guest55> Nemo has a really small default file size limit for thumbnails (I think it's 1MB).
[05:07] <Guest55> To change it, go to Edit > Preferences > Preview tab and under "Other Previewable Files", set "Only for files smaller than" to the value you want.
[05:07] <Guest55> omfg that's stupid lol
[05:07] <Guest55> fixed
[05:12] <quazimodo> is there a high level overview or architecture of snapcraft to show how it actually works, what it's components are & how they fit together etc
[05:12] <quazimodo> i still don't get how it achieves isolation, or how it's interfaces even work
[05:18] <belen1> hi! i am sorry to bother! I am an ubuntu user but not well versed on how it works beyond some commands, and I have printer problems :)
[05:18] <belen1> i would appreciate any help

[08:08] <jclsn> What is the best way to create my own Ubuntu image in a pipeline? I found this guide https://ubuntu.com/core/docs/build-an-image
[08:08] <jclsn> but it says you need a Raspberry Pi. I want to build an x86 image though, which should be based on the latest LTS version
[08:14] <pflanze> Where do GUI application logs go? e.g. Slack or Intellij.
[08:17] <vlt> pflanze: I’d say that depends heavily on the GUI application.
[08:19] <pflanze> In the past stdout+err would go to ~/.xsession-errors; now that's gone, probably because of the move to Wayland.
[08:43] <sreve> can I fix not working reverse lookup by using the hosts-file?
[11:06] <pavel_> это чат?
[11:07] <pavel_> куавк
[11:41] <ogra_> jclsn, this is for ubuntu-core (the fully snap based OS) .. to build one for a PC you'd just change the architecture field to amd64 and replace pi with pc for the gadget in the model assertion and pi-kernel with pc-kernel (with their respecting snap IDs)
[11:42] <ogra_> the rest of the process is the same everywhere for ubuntu core
[12:40] <BkuesKaj> Hi all

[12:50] <leftyfb> libcat: can we help you with something?
[12:51] <leftyfb> lisbeths: ^
[12:51] <lisbeths> Nope

[13:13] <chilversc> How do I get a list of packages (specifically old linux-image-*) that would be candidates for autoremove when my dependencies are broken?
[13:18] <chilversc> How do I unbreak this? "You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.", specifically the packages in question are linux-image-* and its because the boot disk is full
[13:19] <chilversc> I suspect the auto-updater has once again being running updates without me wanting it to and has filled the boot disk with pointless images
[13:35] <chilversc> bah, cleared out some old images, ran --fix-broken and now its gone and filled the disk with -100, -101, -102, what is wrong with this thing
[16:48] <fweht> is it expected that ubuntu server takes forever to boot?
[16:49] <plastikman> define forever
[16:51] <fweht> 2min 146ms systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
[16:51] <plastikman> AFAIK that is a forever target
[16:51] <plastikman> so taht means you have no network connectivity
[16:52] <fweht> ah ok!  ill try disabling the service..  its just a pc, not a real server, i just wanted a minimal install
[16:52] <leftyfb> it means 1 or more network interfaces are not configured as optional and do not have network connectivity. It should time out after 5 minutes
[16:52] <leftyfb> you don't need to touch any services, jsut fix up your /etc/netplan/ file
[16:54] <fweht> ah thank you!
[17:55] <tepperson> i was looking for the systemd-creds binary and didn't find it in my ubuntu 22.04.2 installation, should it exist?
[18:07] <leftyfb> tepperson: I'm pretty sure that isn't available in 22.04, only 23.10 and the upcoming
[19:58] <NoiseEee> hey folks, you figure it's OK to go right into production with the next LTS the day after its released?  Usually I hold off on software that is just released, but does the LTS suggest I can forgo that?
[20:00] <leftyfb> NoiseEee: A popular opinion is to wait till the .1 release in August
[20:01] <OldGr3g> Hi, so I'm new here. I am having issues trying to install Ubuntu onto my 4tb SSD from WD Blue. is there anyway to get it installed without any issues?
[20:01] <NoiseEee> thanks leftyfb
[20:01] <leftyfb> OldGr3g: it might help to detail the issue you ran into
[20:03] <bprompt> OldGr3g: a 4Tb SSD external through an USB port, or just an SSD internal?
[20:03] <OldGr3g> Whenever I use this drive which is in a Docking station, I get prompted with gnu grub.
[20:04] <OldGr3g> I've had different OS's on this drive but I have no clue to what exactly I am doing.
[20:06] <OldGr3g> I'm trying to install Ubuntu right as we speak and hopefully that works.
[20:08] <OldGr3g> the 4tb is internal but hooked up into my docking station.
[20:08] <leftyfb> why?
[20:08] <OldGr3g> I am just lazy
[20:09] <OldGr3g> well, tbh I did have issues with the drive ever since I first got the drive. there's that and it didn't want to work with my other system.
