| agris | How can I prevent stuttering in my video and xruns in my audio on Devuan? | 02:05 |
|---|---|---|
| agris | I have plenty of spare memory and cpu cycles | 02:06 |
| agris | only 1 of 4 cores is pegged but with a threaded job with a niceness of 11 | 02:06 |
| rwp | What software are you running that is causing problems? | 02:06 |
| agris | Device tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_dscd/s kB_read kB_wrtn kB_dscd | 02:07 |
| agris | dm-0 36.00 256.44 826.90 0.00 44056878 142065274 0 | 02:07 |
| agris | nvme0n1 42.63 256.44 826.90 0.00 44058297 142065274 0 | 02:07 |
| agris | neither is my storage subsystem heavily loaded | 02:07 |
| rwp | I can only say that I haven't noticed problems on my system. | 02:07 |
| agris | rwp, mpv's video stutters and qjackctl (running pipewire) reports xruns and occaisonal audio glitches | 02:07 |
| agris | as well as general freezes in X | 02:07 |
| rwp | What is your video hardware and driver? | 02:08 |
| agris | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Ellesmere [Radeon RX 470/480/570/570X/580/580X/590] (rev e7) | 02:08 |
| agris | amdgpu | 02:08 |
| rwp | I will say good. Because I was saying to myself, "Please don't say nVidia. Please don't say nVidia." | 02:09 |
| agris | it's not a novideo card | 02:09 |
| rwp | On a similar system here I have these packages installed. firmware-amd-graphics xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 02:11 |
| rwp | firmware-amd-graphics is in the non-free section of the repository due to the firmware blob. | 02:12 |
| rwp | I also suggest reviewing and inspecting /var/log/Xorg.0.log for information and errors. | 02:13 |
| rwp | And the same with "dmesg" boot output. | 02:14 |
| agris | ok | 02:15 |
| agris | oh intersting | 02:15 |
| agris | 680 [172218.558] (EE) event0 - Corsair Corsair M65 Gaming Mouse: client bug: event processing lagging behind by 11ms, your system is too slow | 02:15 |
| agris | 678 [171440.592] (EE) event5 - Metadot - Das Keyboard Das Keyboard: client bug: event processing lagging behind by 16ms, your system is too slow | 02:15 |
| agris | 677 [170241.495] (II) event0 - Corsair Corsair M65 Gaming Mouse: SYN_DROPPED event - some input events have been lost. | 02:15 |
| agris | 675 [169193.705] (EE) event5 - Metadot - Das Keyboard Das Keyboard: WARNING: log rate limit exceeded (5 msgs per 60min). Discarding future messages. | 02:16 |
| rwp | Careful on pastes! The Libera.chat global bot will kick you. If so join again. | 02:16 |
| agris | not pasting | 02:16 |
| agris | that's just a choice | 02:16 |
| agris | left most number is a line number, but there's a lot of messages in xorg's log saying your system is too slow | 02:16 |
| rwp | It's a global choice made for all of us by the Libera admins. Please use a pastebin. | 02:16 |
| agris | some by a maximum of 45ms of more | 02:17 |
| rwp | That format looks like Xorg.0.log? Yes. Those EE's are looking grim for it being an indication of a problem. | 02:18 |
| rwp | I would not panic until ensuring that the firmware is loaded and trying again. | 02:18 |
| agris | here is my dmesg | 02:18 |
| agris | http://dpaste.com/2E3VNEYLL | 02:18 |
| agris | How can I verify if firmware is loaded? | 02:19 |
| agris | also do you need me to paste my whole Xorg log or is that good enough? | 02:20 |
| rwp | It looks like your adaptor is using the polaris driver. Look at lines 1091 and then 1104 and so on., | 02:20 |
| rwp | I am rather at the limit of what I might know enough to help. But maybe another in the channel will have better clues. | 02:21 |
| agris | it looks like the binary files are being loaded ok | 02:21 |
| rwp | Agreed. Looks like it is loading those files okay. | 02:22 |
| rwp | I had expected to see CEDAR there however. But that probably is an example of my unfamiliarity with your particular adaptor. | 02:22 |
| agris | what is CEDAR? | 02:23 |
| agris | it looks like my entire system is freezing in time | 02:24 |
| agris | stuttering along | 02:24 |
| rwp | CEDAR is the driver used by various AMD GPU adaptors and I must have mis-thought it applied to your hardware too. But it was loading Polaris. | 02:25 |
| rwp | Which OS version are you running? Is this Devuan 4 Stable Chimaera? | 02:27 |
| rwp | And which cpu and architecture? | 02:27 |
| rwp | Honestly I don't think it will help me help you but it might help others help you. | 02:27 |
| agris | Description: Devuan GNU/Linux 4 (chimaera) | 02:30 |
| agris | on amd64 | 02:30 |
| rwp | Hmm... Line 1179 of your paste shows a process segfaulting at boot time? Perhaps unrelated but still an error that should be resolved. | 02:30 |
| agris | What is NetDB? | 02:31 |
| rwp | No idea. Never saw it before. | 02:31 |
| rwp | I see Realtek listed as well. For that I would ensure that firmware-realtek is installed. | 02:36 |
| rwp | I often see the perf: interrupt took too long ... lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate" messages on systems that seem to otherwise work normally. | 02:36 |
| rwp | I was just scanning through looking for anything that stood out. Those are the things that grabbed me. | 02:37 |
| agris | rwp, it's a realtech DAC | 02:38 |
| agris | i mean a faketek | 02:38 |
| agris | audio is working fine | 02:38 |
| agris | do you know what kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate does? | 02:38 |
| rwp | I also liked the SAS drives and SSD. That's good. But those were Seagates. And I don't know if that balances down or not. :-/ | 02:39 |
| agris | firmwware-realtek packages seems to be fore Realtek wired/wifi/BT adapters not sound cards, so it won't do anything i don't think | 02:39 |
| rwp | I do not. | 02:39 |
| agris | rwp what do you mean balances down? | 02:39 |
| rwp | I have not had good experiences with Seagate of late in the 3TB SATA sizes. Quite annoying actually. But SAS drives are better quality drives. | 02:40 |
| rwp | I have a Seagate ST3000DM001 here that glitches periodically, must be power cycled reset, then it is okay again. For a few days or a week or a month. Then locks up again. | 02:41 |
| agris | most of my files are on a nvme drive which is encrypted with dm-crypt | 02:45 |
| agris | and all my hard drives are sas | 02:45 |
| agris | so probably not applicable | 02:45 |
| agris | rwp do you like a different hard drive manufacturer better? | 02:04 |
| agris | what is the debian support channel? | 02:23 |
| rwp | agris, https://www.backblaze.com/b2/hard-drive-test-data.html | 03:56 |
| agris | oh gawd | 05:24 |
| agris | trying to watch a movie with friends and it's stuttering every few seconds | 05:24 |
| agris | when i'm typing it causes what i typed to eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeend up like t his | 05:24 |
| fluffywolf | don't play 4k on a duron? | 05:25 |
| agris | what's a duron? | 05:27 |
| agris | and it's not 4k video | 05:27 |
| fluffywolf | I see you were not building PCs in the early '00s. :) | 05:27 |
| agris | i see your not banned yet | 05:28 |
| fluffywolf | duron was amd's budget processor line | 05:28 |
| fluffywolf | not known for their incredible performance. | 05:28 |
| fluffywolf | bbl, wolfy bedtime | 05:30 |
| agris | fluffywolf, it's not really apropriate to talk to me after how terribly and mean you treated me, especially after i stuck up for you | 05:38 |
