Okay... prime-select nvidia solved the problems...
Okay, I have a very unsatisfactory update: I opened the laptop once again, double checked all cables, closed it again and now it does not crash anymore. Nothing was looking poorly connected, so I am...
My system started to show strange behaviour concerning fans i.e. they turn on way more often than before and at a clearly higher speed. I already checked the temperatures when this happens and it...
Thanks for the reply. I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 but with Plasma-Workspace.
There isn't any option there relating to frequency, just screen locking/dimming and sleeping state for low battery.
My Acer Nitro 5 laptop has a Nvidia RTX 2060 card and an i7-9750H.
Using "prime-select on-demand" results in 10~15sec freezes whenever I try to open a regular windows (e.g. kwrite, gedit) so it is...
tl;dr: how to downgrade from groovy to focal?
Long version: there were some bleeding edge versions of some packages I wanted to try, so I upgraded from focal to groovy. That was a big mistake, as...
Background: I have to send computer to repair, they will wipe the disk and install some other OS to perform tests.
Therefore, as the title says, I'd like to backup a whole disk - not a partition,...
Plasma-desktop INSISTS in increasing the scaling of my 4K up to God knows how many DPI, instead of the standard 96 dpi. This seems to happen just in my new installation of Ubuntu 20.04, and never...
As the title says, USB-C doesn't work in my laptop:
- Ubuntu 20.04
- GPU: Nvidia RTX2060
- nvidia-drivers-450.80.02
Dmesg -w shows no activity upon plugging or unplugging anything on the...
So, I normally use SDDM+Plasma for my desktop, but thanks to the whole problem with nvidia-prime drivers I was forced to switch to GDM3.
I usually (yes, usually) manage to start Plasma without a...
Hello there,
I have a particular External HD (USB) device which has a hard time being detected by the kernel in my Ubuntu laptop. And when I say "by the kernel" I mean "by the kernel", not by the...
Either that or my computer is acting up for personal reasons; it probably dislikes my new haircut. I knew that it was a mistake!
Jokes aside: of course it is a configuration file or a package (or an...
I guess you did not understand my comment. You cannot have a different font type/size for root and for users with your solution.
Regardless, there is no reason why modifying the settings with...
That actually makes me slightly more confused.
I usually configure my root to have a different colour scheme, so that when I am editing a file in a bright red KWrite instance, I know that I'm doing...
I fixed it by installing qt4-qtconfig and then setting the font value in there. There is still some conflict going on somewhere though. Modifying the font size in qtconfig ruins the colour...
I just tested KMix (which is also a part of KDE4) and it also misbehaves with respect to font size, but not colours, icons and etc.
I am running Ubuntu-16.04 with KDE (plasma-desktop package, not kubuntu-desktop).
I have other DEs installed too, but I'm worried only about KDE now.
I'd guess that the discrepancies between...
Hello there,
I am running KDE, but I am having troubles with having Google Chrome (not Chromium) and Konqueror recognizing the fontsize of the rest of the system. I'm not referring to the font...
Yes. Incredible isn't it?
Now, to be totally honest I am using a docking station. The ACTUAL laptop only has a miniDisplayPort, and currently I don't have the cable to test it (though I had it...

I am playing around with a weird mix of plasma-desktop taskbar with E19 WM right now, but I am having a rather obvious problem: if I start with E19 as my window manager, I don't get any of KDE...
Hello
After googling a while, I realized that many people had this problem before, but their solution do not seem fitting in my case.
Basically I have a laptop with one DisplayPort (as well as a...
True, /tmp is mounted in the harddrive, sorry about that. This is output of cat /etc/mtab | grep tmpfs
none /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs rw 0 0
udev /dev devtmpfs rw,mode=0755 0 0

Hi, I would like to know how can I totally and completely disable TMPFS from my system. I want my /tmp to be mounted on a physical hard disk.
Thanks in advance.
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules...
Many years have gone.
I still haven't figured out how to disable TMPFS. There are 2347895023498256093487523 explanations on how to do that with systemd but I can't find any for upstart.
My...
