[Bug 1778011] Re: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power
Hello, I saw the request for testing from the article here: http://albertomilone.com/blog/?p=670 I 'm running Ubuntu Mate 18.04 in a laptop with i5-7300hq and 1050ti. I didn't know of the problems mentioned but I 'd taken to switching gpus from the command line with prime-select and rebooting because of minor problems with the nvidia application. I can run some tests and upload logs if needed.

[Bug 1770961] Re: Add options to set the snappy refresh schedule
I 'd prefer it if software and updates functionality could be used to fully control how snaps update. For example if you can use the option to download updates and prompt the user to upgrade but don't do it until the user confirms it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1770961 Title: Add options to set the snappy refresh schedule To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1770961/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@ Frederik not all the packages you install seem to be needed. Even though, in my system, I have 2/3 installed (see below) I have a working fedora workstation 28 VM. ``` $ apt policy qemu qemu-kvm libvirt-bin qemu: Installed: (none) Candidate: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.2 Version table: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/universe amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/universe amd64 Packages 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages qemu-kvm: Installed: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.2 Candidate: 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.2 Version table: *** 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.2 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64 Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages libvirt-bin: Installed: (none) Candidate: 4.0.0-1ubuntu8.1 Version table: 4.0.0-1ubuntu8.1 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64 Packages 4.0.0-1ubuntu8 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages ``` -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1762205 Title: GNOME boxes fails to start virtual os To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-boxes/+bug/1762205/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1762205] Re: GNOME boxes fails to start virtual os
Update: The solution of appending `group=kvm` causes a problem when updating packages such is nvidia binary drivers. This is the second package that causes this, don't remember the first one. The error is: ``` # various stuff ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.15.0-20-generic libkmod: ERROR ../libkmod/libkmod-config.c:656 kmod_config_parse: /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf line 2: ignoring bad line starting with 'group=kvm' # error gets repeated 30+ times Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.27-3ubuntu1) ... # various stuff ... ``` I am not sure how to fix it (potentially this may not even need to be an error but a warning).

[Bug 1762205] Re: GNOME boxes fails to start virtual os
I have the same problem in Ubuntu Mate 18.04. I was able to fix the problem following John's suggestion: At first I looked for package dependencies: $ apt-cache showpkg gnome-boxes Then we look for qemu-system-x86 configuration files: $ cat /var/lib/dpkg/info/qemu-system-x86.conffiles Then we add `group=kvm` to /etc/modprobe.d/qemu-system-x86.conf Then we add ourselves to the kvm group $ sudo usermod -a -G kvm $USER Since closing and restarting Boxes didn't work I rebooted and then I was able to spin an Ubuntu 18.04 VM on my laptop with gnome-boxes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1762205 Title: GNOME boxes fails to start virtual os To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-boxes/+bug/1762205/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Running: sudo apt install appstream Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done appstream is already the newest version (0.9.4-1ubuntu1). appstream set to manually installed. Should I just wait - or is there something else I need to do? On a side note, because I usually run a custom command: alias maintain='set -x; sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade; sudo apt autoremove; sudo apt autoclean; set +x' the error goes away on a subsequent sudo apt update (that I run to reproduce the error) until some time passes and then it reappears. I think I read somewhere this has to do with the sudo apt upgrade running but I 'm not sure.
