 M Bip | My battery is faulty, and at times reports more charge than the maximum it can still hold. Ubuntu reacts by cutting the mains power - leaving the computer powerless.
Is there a way to tell Ubuntu not to do that?
During start-up all works well, and the power light is on, but once Ubuntu takes the seat, that light switches off, and problems start. | 10:29:02 |

| Nils | * x11 is a display server and not a window manager. thats kwin for you | 11:38:35 |

So sounds more like a hw problem to mr | 12:13:44 |

 eudaimon36 | hey, guys: at my wits end with this one. After editing my /etc/netplan/ config to create a bridge, then giving netplan apply, Ubuntu 22.04 crashed and will no longer boot into anything other than emergency mode. I can't even imagine how these could be related. | 13:37:34 |
| openlinux21 | What's your most common operating system? | 13:37:56 |
| eudaimon36 | So I moved from Windows to Ubuntu about a year ago. But I did not know Windows well at all. Just started learning more about OSes and privacy and such and got hooked on it. I've learned a lot in a year, but still a long way to go. | 13:40:59 |

im almost sure Ubuntu does not "cut power". it is more likely that your battery just does not provide power anymore It doesn't - but the mains does. Just now, the battery loaded from 0% to 17%, and the "mains and charging" light was on (orange). Then it fell back to 0%, and the mains light went off completely - it ought to be "mains and not charging" (white).
But it seems the power is there, despite the light being off and the scare battery (red with exclamation mark) being shown.
So that is good. | 11:31:54 |
 effendy | Hi. I was wondering, why does Ubuntu forces you to enable LVM during the installation wizard if you choose to encrypt your disk (with LUKS)? | 12:00:06 |

| effendy | Why is it advantageous to use LVM instead of just encrypting the partitions directly? | 12:00:54 |
