  • UPDATE:

    I was able to recover my system by re-installing the NVIDIA drivers through, in my case, sudo apt install nvidia-driver-550 since the kernel log indicated a version mismatch, presumably due to the Discover updates. Something’s still janky with the drivers as I experience massive lag and a ghosting cursor, but I’ll figure that out.

    I’d really appreciate tips on how to prevent this in the future.


  • I dug a little deeper and using journalctl --since yesterday I could retrieve a proper log. There are a couple of red and yellow entries, some of the latest ones being:

    Feb 16 12:31:28 radium (udev-worker)[471]: event10: Failed to call EVIOCSKEYCODE with scan code 0x7c, and key code 190: Invalid argument

    Feb 16 12:31:37 radium kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 550.144.03, but
    NVRM: this kernel module has the version 565.77. Please
    NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
    NVRM: components have the same version.
    Feb 16 12:31:38 radium sddm[1280]: Failed to read display number from pipe
    Feb 16 12:31:38 radium sddm[1280]: Display server stopping...
    Feb 16 12:31:38 radium sddm[1280]: Attempt 3 starting the Display server on vt 2 failed
    Feb 16 12:31:38 radium sddm[1280]: Could not start Display server on vt 2

    The NVIDIA API warning appears several times throughout the log actually, which also implies I was wrong about driver version 560 being installed.


  • Okay, first time I do this. I followed this article, made sure the paths are right, but journalctl -e shows -- No entries --. Any idea where I went wrong? ls -l / and ls -l /home tell me I chrooted into the right directory.

    Edit: I ran these commands
    kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t proc proc /mnt/rescue/proc
    kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t sysfs sys /mnt/rescue/sys
    kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/rescue/dev
    kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t devpts pts /mnt/rescue/dev/pts
    kubuntu@kubuntu:~$ sudo chroot /mnt/rescue
    root@kubuntu:/# journalctl -e

    I’m still undiagnosed too, but I have my first diagnostic appointment scheduled in March. I was in a similar situation as you, there’s only one single doctor for adult ADHD in my state, which is why I first had to wait almost a year for the waiting list to open and then another 4 months until the actual appointment.

    I’m pinning all my hopes on this diagnosis. My ADHD traits have been causing a lot of friction in my previous relationship and the first issues are emerging in my current one.

    I can’t say if it will make your stress go away, but maybe the focus you gain will eliminate some of the causes of stress. If you really suspect you might have ADHD, I can only advise you to look into it. Maybe there are self-help groups in your area that you can use to bridge the gap until you get an official diagnosis.

    Exactly. Knowing something in a variety of fields enabled me to fix devices and appliances, work on my car, do all kinds of home crafts, bond with people over shared interests, dive into more complex topics, the list goes on. I never needed to call a technician/craftsmen. And I certainly don’t want to be a worker drone that can do one thing and one thing only (not meant to sound condescending).

    It has two heating elements in the top, one of them is active when you select top + bottom heat. It is only 800W. The other one comes on when you select a grill function.

    I got it for free on a local marketplace. The owner just said it worked alright in those years.

    I was about to say yes, but there was one part left that I wasn’t sure what it is, so I checked. The casing says ELTH 271P / T200, which from what I can gather is a thermal cut-off switch. A potential problem cause?

    The active one out of two top heating coils measures 3.6A, roughly 800W at 230V. Seems alright and should not trigger it I guess.

    That sounds like a zero drift/calibration error.

    That’s what I thought too, but when I try it with bottom heat only, it switches just at the right temperature.

    If its got a computer in it u might be fucked.

    The oven only has a display for the clock and the roasting thermometer, the thermostat is independent (an EGO 55.17253.120).

    If u got a physical temperature knob u could always just rotate it on the dial by 80C

    I really want to avoid that.
