Suddenly cpu load spiking at 100%, plasmashell looked like the cause as shown by top. Shortly thereafter, solid 100%, Killed plasmashell (btw this sort of behaviour also demonstrated by krunner), resulting with apps showing on black background. Ctl+Alt+Bsp got back login dialog, then blue progress bar etc. Gui returns with all widgets still working. However there is an erroneous xmessage, which if closed or acknowledged, starts up the GUI login dialog once more. :twisted: This peaking of cpu load seemed to happen upon continuation when computer unattended about 20 minutes.
ImageCould be upstream issue as there was request to generate bug report for kwin crash.

Wear your underpants on the outside and put on a cape.

Code: Select all

	    echo $i"nvidia-$NV.xx driver will be activated -"
	    echo $i"if present in $PTH/optional folder"
	    find $PTH/optional -name "nvidia-$NV*" 2>/dev/null >>/tmp/modules
	else
	    echo $i"latest nvidia driver will be activated -"

	    find $PTH/optional -name "nvidia-*" 2>/dev/null | egrep -v '96.43.|173.14.|304.' >>/tmp/modules
	fi
Glancing quickly, looks like only nvidia- modules would get loaded irregardless of xzm_.
Great, so it's just a matter of changing from nvidia-$NV* and nvidia-* to nvidia-$NV*.xzm and nvidia-*.xzm, right? :)

While watching videos in youtube, after an extended period, the sound stutters and Pulse Audio crashes; Porteus shows no audio device until the desktop is restarted.

Which DE, browser, sound card, plugin (HTML5 or Flash)? I noticed that on pure OpenBox only and I have no idea why it happens. But with XFCE or LXQt I can't reproduce it.

^ ^^
Sometimes when I start watching a video (on a streaming website, like youtube) after a pause in doing so, and more often after resume, the video won't start. What helps is stating the mplayer and either playing a mp3, or a video clip. For some reason that does the trick, and the youtube video also starts. Dunno if that might help, but you can try. :D
Cheers!
Yours Rava
