Continue running under SSH?
This session appears to be running under ssh. It is not recommended to perform a upgrade over ssh currently because in case of failure it is harder to recover.
If you continue, an additional ssh daemon will be started at port '1022'. Do you want to continue?
Continue [yN] y Starting additional sshd
To make recovery in case of failure easier, an additional sshd will be started on port '1022'. If anything goes wrong with the running ssh you can still connect to the additional one. If you run a firewall, you may need to temporarily open this port. As this is potentially dangerous it's not done automatically. You can open the port with e.g.: 'iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 1022 -j ACCEPT'

good to know. Xubuntu appears to work now, we shall see how long it does. Ok, about a minute or two after I started Task Manager, the machine froze. Completely. So turn off the machine (via the "swedish button") and try again, this time without starting Task Manager (or System Monitor). Does it make a difference? No, after aout 40 minutes uptime the machine hung again. I had Chromium and Firefox running, in addition to the shell windows that starts with the session.
2015-10-07: sda5 - I run apt-get autoremove:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo apt-get autoremove

wheew!
2015-10-07: sda5 - running Software Updater again, I get 4 new packages, and upgrade of 132 packages (249 M total). new: linux-headers-3.13.0-65, linux-headers-3.13.0-65-generic, linux-image-3.13.0-65-generic, linux-image-extra-3.13.0-65-generic. I'm not listing the 132 upgrade packages. Packages linux-image-extra-3.13.0-48-generic, linux-image-extra-3.13.0-49-generic, linux-image-extra-3.13.0-52-generic, linux-image-extra-3.13.0-53-generic could not be installed.
2015-10-07: sda5 - it is still Xubuntu 14.04.3 LTS on it. I ran Software Updater, which complained that "Not all updates can be installed", so I ran a partial upgrade, which was 4 new packages and upgrade 2 packages (208 M total). Upgrade: tzdata, tzdata-java. New: linux-image-3.13.0-48-generic (49, 52 and 53 also). Not sure that will help, but doing it anyway. Speed of download is really crap for some reason. One of the new packages failed to install.

2015-08-13: sda5 - unfortunately, the machine freezes (completely hung, not even caps lock working) a while after login. I changed from the nvidia gfx driver to the opensource driver - no change. I tried uninstalling the nvidia packages - no change. Need to compare packages installed.
2015-08-12: sda5 - reinstall. I booted from the usb stick again (sdb1) and started the Xubuntu installer. From the "something else" menu selection, I selected to install grub2 to sda5, set sda5 to root mount pint, don't format, select Oslo as location, Norwegian keyboard, gave the machine its name, created my user account and then the installation started. It started with removing conflictiong operatiing system files. We will see if this is a success or not.

2015-08-12: sdb1 - backup of my home folder (on sda5) - it seems that /home/tingo is 123,8 GB (or 124 GB).So I use gparted to create a primary partition, size 196.14 GiB, ext4, label b-backup on sdb. It creates /dev/sdb3. Next up, I mount it from the gui. after mounting, I now have this:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ df -h

Permissions are wrong (because gparted runs as root?):

I can now proceed to backup everything from /media/tingo to -b-backup. Remember to check that hidden files and directories gets included. I create a "backup", followed by a "2015-08-12" directory first. Then I start the copy process (from gui).. I got one "can't copy special file" not sure that is important. The process runs at around or below 2 MB / second, and claims it will take about 16 - 17 hours to complete. Luckily the speed picks up; claims goes as low as 1 hour. Only time will tell how long it will take. It took 1 hour 25 mins. Hidden directories and files withing has been copied, and there were only one more file which didn't copy ( because of permissions). Size of the backup looks ok too.

The system appears to work, it is using the open source gfx driver, and the temperature is about 60 degrees C. 2015-08-11: Xubuntu 14.04.3 - I should try to install it on a (blank) usb hard drive, to see if it works then. Just use a usb-to-sata adapter and one of the hard drives I have laying around. 2015-08-11: slice 4 - let me try to install the LTS Hardware Enablement Stack (from ReleaseNotes): tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-vivid libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-vivid [...] Setting up linux-image-generic-lts-vivid (3.19.0.25.12) ...

Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-16) ... So this gives me a 3.19 kernel and lots of other stuff. I wonder if it will work? Answer - it works just the same as the old one; need to stop lightdm and start gdm to login via gui. Also, the machines locks up after a few minutes - hard. I tried booting (manually) with the .52 kernel, but that too locks up after a few minutes. Do I really have to perform a reinstall to get this working? Booted (manually) with the .61 kernel: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a Linux kg-u35jc 3.13.0-61-generic #100-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 29 11:21:34 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux maybe it will last longer? I didn't get any software error dialog boxes after logging in this time. Only time will tell if that is a good sign. It wasn't - the machine locks up with thos one also. Crap. 2015-08-11: slice 4 - it appears that the machine is now upgraded to Xubuntu 14.04.3 LTS: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lsb_release -a LSB Version: core-2.0-amd64:core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-amd64:core-3.0-noarch:core-3.1-amd64:core-3.1-noarch:core-3.2-amd64:core-3.2-noarch:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch:cxx-3.0-amd64:cxx-3.0-noarch:cxx-3.1-amd64:cxx-3.1-noarch:cxx-3.2-amd64:cxx-3.2-noarch:cxx-4.0-amd64:cxx-4.0-noarch:cxx-4.1-amd64:cxx-4.1-noarch:desktop-3.1-amd64:desktop-3.1-noarch:desktop-3.2-amd64:desktop-3.2-noarch:desktop-4.0-amd64:desktop-4.0-noarch:desktop-4.1-amd64:desktop-4.1-noarch:graphics-2.0-amd64:graphics-2.0-noarch:graphics-3.0-amd64:graphics-3.0-noarch:graphics-3.1-amd64:graphics-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.2-amd64:graphics-3.2-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.1-amd64:graphics-4.1-noarch:languages-3.2-amd64:languages-3.2-noarch:languages-4.0-amd64:languages-4.0-noarch:languages-4.1-amd64:languages-4.1-noarch:multimedia-3.2-amd64:multimedia-3.2-noarch:multimedia-4.0-amd64:multimedia-4.0-noarch:multimedia-4.1-amd64:multimedia-4.1-noarch:printing-3.2-amd64:printing-3.2-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch:printing-4.1-amd64:printing-4.1-noarch:qt4-3.1-amd64:qt4-3.1-noarch:security-4.0-amd64:security-4.0-noarch:security-4.1-amd64:security-4.1-noarch Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty I'm still booting (manually) with the .52 kernel: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a Linux kg-u35jc 3.13.0-52-generic #86-Ubuntu SMP Mon May 4 04:32:59 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I'm not sure that the newer kernels work.
2015-08-10: slice 4 - after booting Xubuntu 14.04.2 LTS I wanted to upgrade to 14.04.3 LTS, but Settings / Software Updater doesn't show 14.04.3, just a bunch of updates. Doing $ sudo apt-get update doesn't improve things. I try to install some updates from Software Updater to see if that improves things. No, after doing essential upgrades, I can no longer get the gui to start via stop lightdm start gdm. So now I try $ sudo apt-get upgrade in hope that it will fix things.. No that didn't help. After much wrangling, I finally did tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ prime-select query nvidia tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo prime-select intel update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-340-prime/ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu_GL.conf (x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-340-prime/alt_ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/i386-linux-gnu_GL.conf (i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf) in manual mode After that, gdm showed up and I could logi in again.
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ prime-select query nvidia
2015-08-10: slice 4 - I booted, used Ctrl-alt-F1 to switch to a console, logged in. stop lightdm: $ sudo service lightdm stop find the greeter and stop that too: $ pgrep -lf lightdm 1614 lightdm-greeter $ sudo kill -9 1614 start gdm $ sudo service gdm start unfortunately, I didn't get a graphical login screen, just a blank screen. Oh well. Booted the machine, and did the dance one more time. This time it worked. 2015-08-10: I booted from a Xubuntu 14.04.3 LTS amd64 usb stick.

but nothing for kernel, it seems.
2015-05-20: slice 4 - unfortunately, the machine locks up (no activity, no ping) a lot after the upgrade. Let me try to reinstall nvidia packages to see if that helps:

Reboot and see if it works. 2015-04-10: slice 4 - idle temperature (as in Firefox, Chromium and Thunderbird is running, but I'm not using the machine) is about 75 degrees Celsius now. Before I upgraded to Xubuntu 14.04 it used to be about 58 degrees Celsius. Not good. Perhpas I should try to install the proprietary nVidia driver and switch to Intel, to see if that will bring temperatures down. 2015-04-10: slice 4 - listing PCI devices: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 18) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor PCI Express x16 Root Port (rev 18) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset HECI Controller (rev 06) 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 06) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 06) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev 06) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev 06) 00:1c.5 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 6 (rev 06) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 06) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev a6) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 5 Series Chipset LPC Interface Controller (rev 06) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset 4 port SATA AHCI Controller (rev 06) 00:1f.6 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset Thermal Subsystem (rev 06) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218M [GeForce 310M] (rev a2) 03:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR8131 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0) ff:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor QuickPath Architecture Generic Non-core Registers (rev 05) ff:00.1 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor QuickPath Architecture System Address Decoder (rev 05) ff:02.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor QPI Link 0 (rev 05) ff:02.1 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor QPI Physical 0 (rev 05) ff:02.2 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor Reserved (rev 05) ff:02.3 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor Reserved (rev 05) the GFX devices are these: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT218M [GeForce 310M] (rev a2) now, how do I turn off the nVidia card?

and now? Log out and in again?
I rebooted the machine - this change didn't make any difference. lightdm and / or it's greeter still shows a blank screen instead of the login screen.
2015-04-06: slice 4 - second try at fixing lightdm, this time from a remote terminal.
First, let's stop any lightdm processes still running.

tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo service gdm stop
gdm stop/waiting
Next I do
$ sudo service dbus stop
and find out that it is not smart to do that, because network manager needs dbus, and no the laptop don'thave an active network connection. sigh..
Anyway, I stop a few dbus processes, run
$ sudo apt-get purge lightdm
again, and now I am ready for reinstall.
$ sudo apt-get install lightdm
$ sudo apt-get install lightdm-gtk-greeter
$ sudo apt-get install xubuntu.desktop
(the last one also installs gnome-sudoku and xubuntu-default-settings)
Next, a reboot to see if things are fixed now.
No, I still need to do:
root@kg-u35jc:~# service lightdm stop
lightdm stop/waiting
root@kg-u35jc:~# service gdm start
gdm start/running, process 2008
before I can login.
2015-04-06: slice 4 - trying to fix lightdm. Let me purge an install the lightdm packages:

ok, I better do this remote, as it removes more things that I need.
2015-04-06: slice 4 - temporary fix (or "part 3"). stopping lightdm and starting gdm allowed me to login.

[sudo] password for tingo:

tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo service gdm start

I still don't know why lightdm won't play ball. Added to /etc/sysctl.conf:
2015-04-06 (org:2012-08-09): finally set vm.swappiness to a low value
vm.swappiness = 10 that's it.
2015-04-05: slice 4 - fixing Xubuntu 14.04.2 - part 2. rebooting didn't help. Well, I got rid of the hal warnings, but there is still this in dmesg output:

So I had to login via the network and shut it down. Afterwards, it wouldn't start in graphical mode again. So, boot, recovery, fsck, then root prompt. When trying apt-get install -f, it compliained that dpkg had been interrupted, and advised me to run
dpkg --configure -a
which configured a lot of packages (all?), this took some time. Unfortunately, I rebooted after this step, that was bad - everything was not ok. I ended up in grub4dos and had to do root (hd0,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-79-generic root=/dev/sda5 initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-79-generic boot and that just booted me into a non-working graphics display. Luckily I could still login via the network. Next I ran $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get upgrade $ sudo apt-get autoremove $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade $ sudo update-grub finally, ctrl-alt-f1 switches to a console so I can work from it. 2015-04-05: slice 4 - I ran update-manager, 31 updates today.

Hmm, hard to tell if that worked. It says "off", but.., Ok, temperature is slowly dropping.
added the "echo OFF..." command to /etc/rc.local.
2012-05-01: slice 4 - I rebooted the machine and did
sudo apt-get update
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
with a few errors. Hrmf, I just borked it up even more with that one. I had to do "fix broken dpkg..." from recovery console, which got me back into the machine via normal (gui boot), and then
- connect to network
- manual fix of /etc/resolv.conf (it was empty), verified that I could ping hosts on the internet
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo apt-get update
sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
And finally, we're back to Xubuntu 12.04, and things look normal again.

2012-05-01: slice 4 - hmm, this isn't my day. Now the machine locks up everytime it runs on battery. It doesn't matter if I boot on battery, as soon as the login screen comes up, it freezes. Crap.

2012-05-01: slice 4 - upgrade to Xubuntu 12.04 (LTS). The machine locked up (froze) again on the first attempt. Afterwards, it booted into Xubuntu, so I could do sudo dpkg --configure -a and a reboot after that. When I tried to run update-manager again, it complained that something was broken, and advised me to do sudo apt-get install -f which I did. A new reboot, and then update-manager suggested a partial upgrade. when I tried that, it complained that it couldn't upgrade from "precise" to "oneiric" (yeah, right). There were lots of packages to upgrade, so I did that, with the occasional reboot in between. Still, update-manager isn't happy. 2012-05-01: slice 4 - The new version of Xubuntu disables /var/log/messages. Fixed by editing /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf and uncomment the section for /var/log/messages, then tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo restart rsyslog That's it.

Other info: Xfce 4.8, Thunderbird is now 11.01, Firefox is now 12.0, And also the "window grouping" feature of Xfce was suddenly turned on again. Ok, right click on panel, select "Properties" and set Windows grouping to "Never" (it had been changed to "Always"). 2012-04-30: slice 4 - I tried to upgrade from Xubuntu 10.10 to Xubuntu 11.04. The upgrade failed (the machine locked up / froze). and on reboot I got this delightful message: "the disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present". A bit of googling got me this procedure: enter maintenance shell (by pressing "M" after the message)
mount -o remount,rw /
dpkg --configure -a (which took some time)
reboot
After that, the machine is running Xubuntu 11.04: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a Linux kg-u35jc 2.6.38-14-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 27 20:04:55 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

Strange.
2012-01-22: slice 4 - today's update brought a new kernel version:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a
Linux kg-u35jc 2.6.35-32-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 3 00:47:07 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Let's check battery rate:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ rate
present rate: 26782 mW
Too high. And the temperature is too high. So, back to the old ways again:
rebuild the acpi_call module:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ cd ~/work/u35jc/acpi_call
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.35-32-generic/build M=/home/tingo/work/u35jc/acpi_call modules

and activate it:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ sudo /sbin/insmod acpi_call.ko
Do the magic dance:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ rate
present rate: 23660 mW
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ sudo echo '_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ rate
present rate: 17192 mW
Ah, much better.
2011-12-09: slice 4 - today's update brought a new kernel version:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a
Linux kg-u35jc 2.6.35-31-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 28 19:29:10 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The rate when running on battery is still high:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ rate
present rate: 23534 mW
even if dmesg says that vga switcheroo is on:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ dmesg | grep switche
[ 16.170801] VGA switcheroo: detected DSM switching method _SB_.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0 handle
[ 16.181975] vga_switcheroo: enabled
Oh well. I rebuilt the acpi_call module:
cd ~/work/u35jc/acpi_call
make
sudo cp acpi_call.ko /lib/modules/uname -r/kernel/drivers/acpi/
sudo /sbin/insmod acpi_call.ko
and tested it:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ rate
present rate: 23954 mW
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ sudo echo '_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ rate
present rate: 17990 mW
much better.

2011-10-08: slice 4 - another freeze bug: if I insert a card in the SDcard reader, the machine locks up, completely. Bleargh :-/ tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.

2011-08-03: slice 4 - ok, this bug has been with me for a while, I just forgot to document it; whenever I try to add a printer (Applications, System, Printing, then "New Printer"), the machine freezes up. As in totally locked up, no response whatsoever. I have to use the power button to get the machine back to life again. Annoying.

2011-07-26: slice 4 - upgraded VirtualBox to version 4.0.12 via Synaptic (previous version was 4.0.8). It turns out that Xubuntu / Synaptic didn't like the "source" repository for VirtualBox. Once I removed that, upgrading was smooth sailing. 2011-07-26: lspci output: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 18) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor PCI Express x16 Root Port (rev ff) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset HECI Controller (rev 06) 00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 06) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 06) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev 06) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 2 (rev 06) 00:1c.5 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset PCI Express Root Port 6 (rev 06) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 06) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev a6) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 5 Series Chipset LPC Interface Controller (rev 06) 00:1f.2 SATA controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset 4 port SATA AHCI Controller (rev 06) 00:1f.6 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset Thermal Subsystem (rev 06) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT218 [GeForce 310M] (rev ff) 03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc.

2011-06-28: slice 4 - todays update brought a new kernel: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ uname -a Linux kg-u35jc 2.6.35-30-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 7 18:41:54 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux Do I have to redo the acpi_call thingie now? Not sure. From dmesg output: [ 14.477994] VGA switcheroo: detected DSM switching method _SB_.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0 handle [ 14.605874] vga_switcheroo: enabled [ 15.457563] ACPI: Video Device [GFX0] (multi-head: yes rom: yes post: no) Hmm, but the rate is very high: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ rate present rate: 22722 mW That's not good. Let's check if we have vga_switcheroo: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ ls -l /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2011-06-28 22:39 /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch Yes. Let's check which cards we have, and what status they are: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch 0: :Off:0000:01:00.0 1:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0 tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ lspci | grep VGA 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GT218 [GeForce 310M] (rev a2) Ok, so card "0" is device 01:00.0 and the nVidia discrete card, while card "1" is device 00:02.0 and the integrated graphics device (IGD) which is currently on. According to the docs, this will turn off the graphics card: tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo sh -c "echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch" Now, how about power usage? tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ rate present rate: 22176 mW Damn, this is not working. Ok, I just re-did the acpi_call module, and used that to turn off the nVidia card.
2011-06-24: slice 4 - todays update got me Firefox version 5.0. We will see if it is any better than Firefox 4.0.1, which was a resource hog.
2011-05-21: slice 4 - the last weeks Firefox (3.6.17) has started acting like a resource hog. Often it has hogged one core of the cpu completely, forcing the machine to run at heavy load, with more fan activity than normal. Stopping or killing Firefox returns things to normal. Restarting Firefox, and things are normal for a while (some hours, a day) then i starts acting up again. Maybe I should upgrade to Firefox 4. Upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 by following this guide. We will see if that helps.
2010-03-26: slice 4 - a new kernel (2.6.35-28) today, so I had to redo the acpi_call module again:
cd ~/work/u35jc/acpi_call
make
sudo cp acpi_call.ko /lib/modules/uname -r/kernel/drivers/acpi/
sudo /sbin/insmod acpi_call.ko
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present rate: 26166 mW
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ sudo echo '_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
tingo@kg-u35jc:~$ grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present rate: 19292 mW
So there it is.
2010-12-21: slice 4 - new kernel (2.6.35-24) today, so I got to redo the acpi_call module again. Yay!
2010-12-20: slice 4 - without disabling the GFX card (on battery) I get:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work$ grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present rate: 23114 mW
I had to rebuild the module (hint: ~/work/u35jc/acpi_call) and install it again (because the kernel has been updated):
sudo cp acpi_call.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/acpi/
the install this way didn't work:
sudo depmod
but this way worked:
sudo /sbin/insmod acpi_call.ko
use lsmod to verify that the module is loaded:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ lsmod | grep acpi acpi_call 4271 0
So, after disabling the card with:
sudo echo '\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call
the rate is now:
tingo@kg-u35jc:~/work/u35jc/acpi_call$ grep rate /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present rate: 16562 mW
and battery life has improved.
2010-10-21: sIice 4 - I upgraded to Xubuntu 10.10. dmesg output: normal. I added the acpi_call module, and did this:
sudo echo '\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF' > /proc/acpi/call sudo cp acpi_call.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/acpi/ sudo depmod
thats its so far. Seems to improve battery life quite a bit.
2010-10-07: today I discovered that java was missing (probably never installed), so I used Synaptic to install the default-jdk package (which points to openjdk-6 on the amd64 version of Xubuntu). And the icedtea6-plugin is also needed, both for Opera and Firefox. I also installed the necessary things for Buypass.no: libccid, pcscd, pcsc-tools and libpcsclite-dev. After that buypass.no works in Opera, but not in Firefox (probably just need to restart Firefox).
2010-10-02: I installed Xubuntu on slice 4 on the hard drive. Xubuntu 10.04 dmesg output: normal. Initially I had problems: the Xubuntu 10.04 LiveCD installer would not let me install the boot loader to anything other than MBR, so I just skipped it. Afterwards, I tried to get EasyBCD (from win7) to boot Xubuntu, but it wasn't easy. The following config file for NeoGrub seems to do the trick:
root (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda5 initrd /initrd.img
(must be verified). Note: afterwards I managed to get grub2 installed to the root partition, bot when it boots from there, it hangs when mounting the root filesystem. As long as NeoGrub works, I'm happy.
2010-10-02: I booted Xubuntu 10.04 from a LiveCD. It uses the Intel graphics by default, in 1366 x 768. Most things seems to work, including the wireless network. Cool!
