Seems to be a snap. https://snapcraft.io/install/firmware-updater/ubuntu I've disabled snap and I found the existing fwupd service running.

I take it this is different from fwupdmgr https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd . It's not clear why we need a second one.

Sure @wizardfromoz $ snap list --all Command 'snap' not found, but can be installed with: sudo apt install snapd $ ls -al /var/log/unattended-upgrades/ total 16 drwxr-x--- 2 root adm 4096 Apr 1 08:49 . drwxrwxr-x 18 root syslog 4096 Apr 28 18:50 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root adm 0 Apr 1...

Sorry. I had 23.X. I uninstalled snap and removed all snaps. I then used the upgrade process to move to 24.04. I've previously removed snap and the upgrade did not add it back.

It looks like upgrading to 24.04 did not reinstall snap.

Yes. Because I had it in 23.X, upgraded to 24 and then found it missing when I eventually went looking for it. So that's two things now: tlp and the daemon. Both are power related and I know that 24.04 upgraded something power related, so maybe there's a connection there ...

I just found out it had uninstalled power-profiles-daemon too, which I could reinstall and get back, but for a moment I was disoriented and kept looking to see if they had moved that option somewhere else.

Thanks, I think this was the closest answer: Using a mark. I looked up some resources and the process is 1. Go to the first line to be copied 2. Mark it with ma 3. Go to the last line to be copied 4. Use y`m to yank from the mark to that line

I know Xyy will yank the next X lines. What I want to do is mark the current line, scroll down to somewhere else then copy (or cut) to that line. How can I do this? Thanks!

Another thing that annoys me is that my cruising (as it were) power consumption has gone up by a whole watt. I spend most of my time in vim writing prose or code and sometimes compiling and I usually average 5.5 W but now I'm averaging 6.6 W with the same usage ...

I looked through journalctl -S XXX for the time since I opened the lid and marked out time jumps in case something leaps out Apr 30 19:52:56 e14 kernel: Freezing user space processes Apr 30 19:52:56 e14 kernel: Freezing user space processes completed (elapsed 0.004 seconds) Apr 30 19:52:56 e14...

flatpaks are an interesting idea. There is only one "store" (repository) right now, but you could host your own. I think spans are much more opaque. I remove snap from Ubuntu. I get everything off the traditional repos. I don't know if the purpose of snap is to promote paid, closed source...

I'm on Thinkpad E14 G4. I've been running 23.X on it happily for months. It has been very responsive. Yesterday I upgraded to 24.04 and my login and logout times are painful. It takes around 10 seconds to go from entering my password to getting back to my desktop and same while logging out...

I use Ubuntu, whatever the LTS version is. Works perfectly with my ThinkPad.

Are you talking about the sleep mode? I could try the "Linux" sleep mode again, but every time I tried it, when the computer wakes up, I have no mouse control and other random things break on wake. I never used it enough to see if the delayed wake problem persists with the old style suspend...
