[01:14:52] <progo> a few weeks ago I upgraded the OS and kernel and stuff (new major Linux Mint release) on my netbook. Used it at least 16 hours since then and it hasn't yet had a sudden freeze like it used to. If I talk about my success here or on my social media, will that make the kernel crashes come back?

[03:40:28] <FatPhil> progo: what chipset/gpu does your netbook have - I still have a couple of machines which lock up randomly when playing multimedia, so might consider a more modern kernel.

[06:36:18] <oleoarchus> Your response is less than useful.
[06:47:16] <FatPhil> that's because you are less than useful

[07:16:12] <nanoarchus> I am getting the idea, only three there are. A Master, and two jokers.

[11:31:40] <Runaway1956> Maybe the heat wave has broken. Expected high today is only 100 degrees, some chance of rain.
[11:33:11] <Runaway1956> If I'm to salvage the garden, I need rain badly!
[11:34:27] <FatPhil> plants evaporate a lot of water, so it transpires
[11:34:50] <Runaway1956> True, but even worse is any bare earth
[11:35:09] <Runaway1956> I've been aggressively collecting mulchable material to cover the ground
[11:35:47] <Runaway1956> You can't allow weeds to grow between rows and in the paths, but bare ground is anathema to healthy soil
[11:36:57] <Runaway1956> with a healthy layer of mulch, you can water just a little bit, and the soil stays moist even on the hottest of days

[14:52:42] <chromas> I had the Realtek SD card reader driver somehow causing dbus spam, which would buffer up over time and cause cpu/ram hogging. some other people had that issue with the nvidia driver too
[14:53:55] <janrinok> That's interesting - how did you track it down?

[15:24:46] <progo> chromas that's helpful. when I have a break at the conference over the weekend, with my netbook I'll look for noise in the dbus log
[15:24:58] <progo> glad it's working for now
[15:26:32] <progo> in other news, I finally found a web service/app besides Youtube that absolutely fails on this netbook. Jitsi gets pretty bogged down since it does NOT do server-side video mixing as far as I can tell. join a computer club meeting, and everyone's got their camera on, and the netbook gets over-burdened. other than that, and the god-awful YouTube
[15:26:32] <progo> front-end, everything works great on a low powered computer running a linux desktop
[15:26:41] <progo> youtube hates you
[15:27:07] <progo> I bet the YouTube chat widget is bigger than Doom Episode 1
