[SOLVED] Xfce and bus issues

Long story short, I updated Xfce to 4.8 few days ago, and everything went well. I was running my basic programs and VM during these days.
But today, all of a sudden, some programs didn't launch anymore. xfce4-mixer quit with a "Bus Error" message, and many other things started failing. After a reboot, it just got weirder: NMApplet appeared in the tray and displayed my network (wireless), but clicking it just "freezes" the icon. Aside from that, xfce wouldn't load my keymap (es), instead it defaults to a "us" keymap.
The only packages I updated today were a few python and power management packages. Downgrading these (and dbus) didn't help.
Also, X terminals (xfce's terminal, tilda, etc) behave strangely when scrolling back: A few lines are displayed, but scrolling up further just displays empty space.
No major configs were edited during this time. Googling a bit gave me results about dbus being twice on rc.conf, but that's not the issue. My current rc.conf has dbus and hal after it (Method 1 in archwiki). Excluding dbus (Method 2) doesn't change things. I also tried excluding hal (Xfce 4.8 doesn't require it anymore, correct?), but it's the same thing.
Xfce itself seems to run sorta fine though: The shutdown command inside the DE works, and some apps do run (power management, xfce notes, notifications). Others give out several errors: Chromium for example says it "can't create a directory socket" or something (using another system right now, so I can't check), while avant-window-navigator gives out dbus and gconf errors.
dmesg doesn't display anything out of the ordinary at the end (the blank space in terminals issue doesn't let me read too far back.)
EDIT: A dbus-daemon process is constantly using 50% of the CPU. And the kernel is 2.6.36 (upgraded it quite some time ago, had no issues)
Any ideas on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.

...and I solved it.
Since nothing would work, I decided to back up my system files and pacman cache, among other things. When checking my pkgcache folder size, I noticed that the / partition was at 100%...
So running ncdu I find out slim had a 9.9 GB log for some reason. Deleted that, rebooted, and everything is back to normal.
So now I mark this as solved, thankfully. Now the slim logs are not growing like crazy.

  • [SOLVED] XFCE and automounting DVD/CD

    Hello all,
    New to XFCE, switched from gnome 3, and I have a few questions, if someone can point me in the right direction:
    1) how can I automount DVDs or CD's as well as USB thumb drives?  I tried devmon for udisks, and that didn't work.
    2)  as a regular user, I don't have access to the "Restart" and "Shutdown" buttons from the logout menu, they are dimmed.
    3)  whenever I roll my mouse into the lower right corner of the desktop, it appears to get "stuck" for a second or two.  this is the only corner it gets stuck in.
    any help is greatly appreciated.

    I was also struggling with the same problem when switching from gnome 3 to Xfce.
    The first question is the first problem I encountered and it can be solved by adding "ck-launch-session" This should have been in the FAQ.
    I am now facing the second question now. Here is some hints https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Th … tomounting
    I am still trying to figure the problem at this moment.
    Edit: After following the instruction on the wiki, automount sill not works.
    I found a thread on the forum discussion about this issue. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=111867
    Basically, thunar and  thunar-volman required gvfs to have automount function properly.

  • [SOLVED] mpd and sonata issue

    Hi again!
    I've installed mpd and sonata but i don't see my library in sonata .
    This is my /etc/mpd.conf file
    # An example configuration file for MPD
    # See the mpd.conf man page for a more detailed description of each parameter.
    # Files and directories #######################################################
    # This setting controls the top directory which MPD will search to discover the
    # available audio files and add them to the daemon's online database. This
    # setting defaults to the XDG directory, otherwise the music directory will be
    # be disabled and audio files will only be accepted over ipc socket (using
    # file:// protocol) or streaming files over an accepted protocol.
    music_directory "/home/andreas/Downloads"
    # This setting sets the MPD internal playlist directory. The purpose of this
    # directory is storage for playlists created by MPD. The server will use
    # playlist files not created by the server but only if they are in the MPD
    # format. This setting defaults to playlist saving being disabled.
    #playlist_directory "~/.mpd/playlists"
    # This setting sets the location of the MPD database. This file is used to
    # load the database at server start up and store the database while the
    # server is not up. This setting defaults to disabled which will allow
    # MPD to accept files over ipc socket (using file:// protocol) or streaming
    # files over an accepted protocol.
    db_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpd.db"
    # These settings are the locations for the daemon log files for the daemon.
    # These logs are great for troubleshooting, depending on your log_level
    # settings.
    # The special value "syslog" makes MPD use the local syslog daemon. This
    # setting defaults to logging to syslog, otherwise logging is disabled.
    log_file "/var/log/mpd/mpd.log"
    # This setting sets the location of the file which stores the process ID
    # for use of mpd --kill and some init scripts. This setting is disabled by
    # default and the pid file will not be stored.
    pid_file "/var/run/mpd/mpd.pid"
    # This setting sets the location of the file which contains information about
    # most variables to get MPD back into the same general shape it was in before
    # it was brought down. This setting is disabled by default and the server
    # state will be reset on server start up.
    state_file "/var/lib/mpd/mpdstate"
    # General music daemon options ################################################
    # This setting specifies the user that MPD will run as. MPD should never run as
    # root and you may use this setting to make MPD change its user ID after
    # initialization. This setting is disabled by default and MPD is run as the
    # current user.
    user "mpd"
    # This setting sets the address for the daemon to listen on. Careful attention
    # should be paid if this is assigned to anything other then the default, any.
    # This setting can deny access to control of the daemon.
    # For network
    #bind_to_address "any"
    # And for Unix Socket
    #bind_to_address "~/.mpd/socket"
    # This setting is the TCP port that is desired for the daemon to get assigned
    # to.
    #port "6600"
    # This setting controls the type of information which is logged. Available
    # setting arguments are "default", "secure" or "verbose". The "verbose" setting
    # argument is recommended for troubleshooting, though can quickly stretch
    # available resources on limited hardware storage.
    #log_level "default"
    # If you have a problem with your MP3s ending abruptly it is recommended that

    If you continue to have issues with permissions, the solution i use is to simply run MPD as my normal user, storing all the necessary directories and files under ~/.mpd and just pointing it at the config file I stuck there:
    $ mpd ~/.mpd/config
    No more permissions issues! There's an explanation of this in the wiki.

  • [SOLVED]youtube and flash issue

    So, I've got a flash issue that only happens on youtube. It looks like this:
    It happens every time I open a browser (on both firefox and chrome) and goes away after refreshing the page, but its kinda annoying to refresh the page every time I wanna watch a video. Also when switching to fullscreen the video stays in software video rendering when it should switch to accelerated rendering so I get around 10 fps making the video unwatchable (this doesnt happen with windows on the same hardware).
    Other flash websites like vimeo work fine and I can watch vimeo HD videos in fullscreen without any issue.
    This started happening when youtube introduced the new black look of their player (it was all fine and dandy before), and its bothering me ever since so I'm now using flashvideoreplacer extension for firefox but I still want flash to work properly so I can use chrome again.
    I'm using 64-bit arch, flashplugin from extra (getting the same effect with any other flashplugin from AUR) and EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode is set to 1 in /etc/adobe/mms.conf
    Oh and I've tried this on Ubuntu live cd and controls work fine but accelerated video still doesnt work.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    SOLVED:Graphic problem is resolved after installing new version of flashplugin, but still no HW acceleration.

  • [SOLVED] Keyboard and Mouse Issue

    Hi Arch Guros!
    Please be easy on me, this is my first post and I'll try to make it as specific as I can..
    When I use the Arch Linux Boot CD to attempt to install Arch Linux I noticed that my keyboard was not working..
    I walked away from my computer for 5 minutes and when I came back I noticed that the keyboard it was lit up and working..  I noticed after a few reboots that the keyboard does in fact takes a few minutes to start to work and I noticed that this started to happen on my second hard drive running Linux Mint (when I fell back to it)..  However, with a Windows 7 installation, this does not happen.
    Anyway, I ran:
    # lsusb
    Relevant Output:
    Bus 009 Device 006: ID 06a3:0728 Saitek PLC
    Then I ran:
    # dmesg | cat > /root/dmesg.txt
    # grep usb /root/dmesg.txt | cat > /root/dmesg_usb.txt
    dmesg Output:
    http://pastebin.com/0ci5kvy7
    USB relevant dmesg Output:
    http://pastebin.com/JAWmH1dP
    I've noticed A LOT of usb descriptor errors and usb address issues..
    I have tried flashing a new BIOS to my motherboard (gigabyte 990fxa-ud5) and resetting the settings on it to factory defaults.. This dmesg output is when JUST my keyboard is connected..
    I will attach the two files with the errors..
    If you need anymore information please ask, I can provide anything you need..
    Thanks in advance guys! I hope I have met the forum etiquette.. (I was intimidated by the date output question >.>)
    Edit: I would also like to note that the keyboard starts working at 166 in the dmesg output..  Not sure if that helps at all

    Alright, so I did an extensive amount of research after posting this while I waited for a response and seemed to find a procedure that worked to fix this issue..
    I used a jumper to clear my CMOS settings..
    I then loaded up the Arch Linux install and was greeted with a:
    Unexpected Inconsistency: Run fsck Manually
    I proceeded by running fsck /dev/sda2..
    I said yes to all the prompts and rebooted,,
    Everything seems to work find now.. Odd, but it didn't seem like a solid fix.. Oh well, thanks for listening!

  • [SOLVED] Xfce and gtk-sunlight (rsw in the AUR)

    I'm yet another refugee from Gnome 3. I've got Xfce set up almost exactly the same after a day of fiddling, but I can't figure out this thing, and there's nothing on google or the forums about it.
    I'm trying to use the Realtime Sunlight Wallpaper app that updates the desktop background every 30 minutes. I assumed, it being gtk, that it would work in Xfce, but it doesn't appear at all. When I run it from the command line it seems like it's running fine with no errors. I feel like I'm missing something huge. Can someone tell me if this is even possible with the way Xfce does the background vs Gnome?
    Thanks!
    Last edited by JohnnyRogers (2011-05-12 21:55:04)

    I've had a look at this and rsw uses this command to change the wallpaper:
    gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename
    (+ the actual filename appended.)
    Under Xfce, xfDesktop is responsible for displaying the background, and it probably doesn't care much about gnome settings...
    Try changing the code in support.h from
    #define GCONF_SET_WALLPAPER "gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename"
    to
    #define GCONF_SET_WALLPAPER "xfconf-query -c xfce4-desktop -p /backdrop/screen0/monitor0/image-path -s"
    It should work... However there are other commands (GCONF_SET_PICTURE_OPTIONS, etc. in support.h) that you may have to change to fix everything.

  • [SOLVED] sound and video issues with firefox

    I decided to change my browser due to some problems with the last chromium update (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=182218).
    I'm using the last version of firefox but I can't watch any videos in this browser. I'm having two main problems:
    · There is no sound at all in the videos played. But there is sound if I play something with Clementine or mplayer
    · The videos stop after a few seconds automatically. The videos keep loading, but they are not played anymore.
    This is a weird thing. I can't use a browser! Please some help!
    PS: I change the player on youtube to HTML5 and it's working now

    Hello,
    While the whiteboard itself doesn't have an upload command,
    the FilePublisher can upload images into the Cocomo room. From
    there, your clients can download the image and display it (say,
    through an image component). The SharedWhiteboard can have its
    backgroundAlpha set to 0 - try myWB.setStyle("backgroundAlpha", 0).
    As far as your audio is concerned, it seems as though you're
    compiling against the FP10 cocomo.swc, but aren't requiring player
    10 in your Flex project (check Project Properties->Flex
    Compiler). I'd either use the FP9 swc, or require 10.0.0 or higher
    in the project.
    hope that helps

  • [SOLVED] Sudo and seteuid issues

    A couple of days ago, something strange happened to my user account.  I  couldnt log into my window manager (enlightenment) as a non-root user.  Also, each time I would try to issue a command using sudo, it would return some error about seteuid (I can't rememer exactly what it said).  So I fiddled around with the sudoers file to make sure I had sudo access (which I now do), but I still can't issue the startx command as a non-root user or without sudo.  I suspect it has something to do with the seteuid error, but I don't know what to do about it.  If I run startx, it returns:
       Fatal server error: Cannot move old log file "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" to "/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old"
       xinit: givingup
       xinit: unable to connect to X server: Address family not supported by protocol
       xinit: server error
    I tried changing the permissions on these files, which didn't work.  Hours of google searching hasn't helped much, but here is a link to a page that describes a problem as similar to mine as I could find:  http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=195.0
    It mentions this:
       BTW, the "Can't open /var/log/Xorg.o.log" is possibly because "set uid" became unset in the tcz conversion - does "ls -l /usr/local/bin/Xorg" show an "s" in there somewhere?"
    but I don't even have that file to try to use their solution.
    /home/user/.xinitrc contains only 1 line:  exec enlightenment_start
    Please help me figure what to do about the seteuid or setuid, so I can run startx as a non-root user, again.  Thanks!

  • [SOLVED] WINE and NVIDIA issues - scrolling away from fullscreen

    Hello again... more problems from me.
    I seem to have a problem with my WINE running fullscreen applications, such as games. When I start, say, a fullscreen game, it does start in fullscreen, but if I move my mouse to the right or bottom edge of the screen, the game screen "scrolls away", and I'm shown my desktop (at a lower resolution). When I pull my mouse/touchpad back to the left or upper edge, the screen returns.
    I'd love to post screenshots of this, but those show nothing useful
    (which leads me to a suspicion there might me something wrong with my display configuration - but this is only a suspicion.)
    It happens regardless of Compiz or any other window manager, and regardless of the "Graphics" settings in winecfg. This is only the case with WINE; I've tried some native fullscreen games, which work flawlessly.
    This is really annoying, as it renders most of the games unplayable.
    I have an NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics card, and am running the 64-bit Arch Linux. Here's my xorg.conf and my Xorg.0.log.
    I'd be very grateful if someone could help me with this. Thanks!

    there was also a workaround I came to, but it was a messy one compared to this. the idea was to make a batch script for every game I would install, which would first call the xrandr <resolution>, then wine the game, and after that xrandr back to my desktop resolution. needless to say I had this as a last resort, since this would mess up changing the ingame resolution, and don't even get me started about the mess it makes on the desktop

  • [SOLVED, I hope] Xfce and Firefox "renewed" by shutdown

    I closed all the apps, exited X and turned the box off # shutdown -h now
    On booting the next day, xfce was reset to "just installed" status (all settings gone) and Firefox was brand new, welcoming me for the "first" time -- no bookmarks.  I never saw the like.  It's no train wreck, but....
    EDIT:
    OK, that's bizarre.  In spite of the fact that I did everything as always, another login to the GUI in Arch produced a restored xfce and Firefox.  Even the bookmarks are back.  I can't explain it, but I'm not going to refuse the help of the resident Poltergeist.  Now: how do I keep him friendly?

  • [SOLVED] XFCE - Incorrect windows placement

    Hi,
    I'm currently having a issue with XFCE's window placement. In the settings panel, under Window Manager Tweaks > Placement, window placement is set to Center for all windows, but this option has no effect. I tried changing it to place windows under the mouse, but it also has no effect on the windows placement. Windows keep opening on the screen corners.
    I checked the forums for similar problems, and found some results, but none of the solutions worked for me. Also, those are quite old topics.
    [Solved] XFCE - Having Trouble Centering Windows
    [solved] Xfce4, new windows position
    Xfce 4.8 xfwm4 window placement settings no longer have any effect.
    This is not a big problem, but I'm kind of picky, so if anyone knows a solution to this problem, please share it.

    Agkel0s wrote:Currently the slider is on the minimum value, and windows of all sizes should open centered on screen.
    Shouldn't you actually have it on the maximum value?
    I believe the way this works is that the size (or ratio, the option is actually called placement_ratio IIRC and is a ratio of window size vs screen size) you specify here is the minimum to trigger "smart placement." If the window isn't (at least) of that size, then the default (i.e. center or under mouse pointer, as defined below) will be used. So if you want every window to use the default placement, you should set the minimum size for smart placement to be as large as possible. (In fact, I believe with a ratio set to 100 (i.e. slider to the max) it should always use the default placement, regardless of window size, which is want you're after if I'm not wrong.)
    If even with the slider to the max you get new windows placed using smart placement, then it sounds like a bug I'd say.
    (Also, just as FYI and though you might simply want all windows to be centered, I wasn't happy with xfwm's smart placement myself, you can see this topic for a (IMO) better alternative.)

  • Can you help me solve my aspect ratio issue?

    Hey guys,
    I'm posting this in hopes that someone can help me solve an aspect ratio issue with a project that I have to finish by tomorrow.
    I'm trying to avoid having to re-edit the entire thing.
    I shot the project with my Nikon D7000 DSLR. in 720p 30p (29.97)
    I am running Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 (the trial version).  I have the full version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS3.
    The reason I was working with the trial is that CS3 can't handle the H.264 MOVs that the D7000 records.
    You can work with a timeline, but if you try to export anything, it never works.  I always have to convert my footage to ProRes MOVs with MPEG Streamclip before I can work with them is CS3.  That takes a lot of time and a lot of hard drive space.  After much research, I found out that CS5 is the way to go for DSLR footage.  I just need to save up my pennies for the upgrade.
    So I thought I'd edit this short (1 minute) project with the trial to see how CS5 works with the D7000 footage.
    Upon installing the trial program, I found that the project presets were limited.  I knew this ahead of time because it's clearly stated on the Adobe's website.
    But I wasn't aware how limited they are.
    Since "DSLR 1280x720p 30p" is not an option with the trial, I was going to use HDV 720p 30p.  But that was not an option either!
    So basically, my only option for 16x9 30p was "DV NTSC Widescreen".  It's my understanding that this is 864x480 (in square pixel aspect ratio) or 720x480  (in widescreen pixel aspect ratio)   I needed the output file to be 864x486.  I downsized the footage to 69% in the "Video Effects: Motion" setting so it looked correct in the project.  I didn't think about those extra 6 pixels until I outputed the file and saw thin black lines on the top and bottom.  My guess is that Premiere is adding black pixels because my project is technically 720x480 (1.2121)
    Any thoughts on how I can get a clean 864x486 export?  I'd rather not re-edit the whole thing...which I would have to do in CS3 after I spent a few hours converting the original files in MPEG Streamclip.  I don't know if there is a way to export something out of CS5 and then open a new project in CS3 to make this work.
    Thanks in adavance!

    On export, just crop a few pixels off of each side; that'll let the image scale correctly to the output frame size without black bars.
    I'm not running the trial, but you should still be able to create a custom sequence preset using the Desktop editing mode. Just switch over to the General tab when you create a new sequence, and choose "Desktop" from the editing modes. Set the rest of the parameters as you need them.
    Even easier: once you've imported your footage, just drag a clip to the New Item icon at the bottom of the project panel; a sequence will be created matching your footage parameters. You can edit at full-resolution, and then export to your desired frame size when complete--you'll probably still need to crop a few pixels (in the Export Settings window) to eliminate the black bars.

  • Battery, heat, and ringer issues

    I recently purchased the Iphone 4s.. this is my first iphone
    I did the update that Apple sent out to help the battery and it seems like it worse then before the update??  My phone has been off the charger for 45 minutes, I sent 1 text message, and had 1 phone call.  The percentage is now at 87.  It the last 2 minutes i have watched it go down 2%?  Is this normal?  Also, the phone gets REALLY hot...
    If not, what do I do now??
    Also, I keep missing phone calls because I don't hear the phone ring... but the ringer is all the way up..
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

    We've got the same issues, the BBM contacts went, now the BB won't charge ... we've tried all ways to get it to charge ... typically it's just over a month old so we can't get a full refund ... we are on here trying to find out what we need to do as we can't obtain a telephone number for BB customer services nor an email address only a tweet address which I haven't downloaded onto my handset.  So am stuck!!! Any and all advice very gratefully received as seriously peeved with BB models now.  My first BB was fantastic ... but all newer models have had problems ... think BB needs to ensure that all techy problems are fully ironed out prior to launching their new BB handset!
    1. Connect your Z10 to the wall outlet charger for an hour and then with the Z10 powered on, and with it STILL CONNECTED, remove the battery for a minute and replace. This will normally reset the the on-device battery meter and allow the charging status and percentage to show more correctly.
    2. Orange is your tech support contact and any issue which they cannot resolve, they should escalate up to BlackBerry tier two tech support, or you should ask/demand that.

  • IQ826t Restart and Heating Issue

    One thing I definitely do not like the HP's support especially when they will not allow us to buy a 7 Upgrade from Vista nor will they support something (even when I find their glitches and they admit after telling me it was just the OS).. On Repair work, I had to ship it out and this will be my 2-3 time to do repair on this PC in the past 3 years (and I have to wait a week for the repair to be done...)
    Besides that, IQ826t, Win 7 Ultimate SP1
    All Drivers are up to date with HP website (utilizing Win 7 64 bit drivers and Firmware is up to date). AVG update/scan (no issue - confirmed even rootkit).. Malwarebyte - Scan and no issue
    Disk Cleanup, Disk Defragmentation done on a monthly and quarterly schedule
    Biggest Issue:
    I am getting a crash with Win 7 0x124 Stop Error Message (happens periodically and even after a reboot)
    Never had this issue until May and the upgrade to Win 7 was done last year with SP1 update done on March (so it is not an issue with the OS as HP support personnel seems to think... I proved them the issue with Windows Update History, The  Bluescreen error code on my error code reader)..  This machine under warranty and I had issues with it constant (even in Vista)
    They state that it is the OS.. Again, if that was the case, I would think it would happen right away like my Toshiba on SP1 upgrade... That was not the case in the matter.  I have a firmware reset (default settings) and the issue persist..
    The Error Code relates always HAL.dll or ntoskrnl.exe
    One if hardware compatiblity and the other is an OS kernel exe file.. And this usually checking knowledge base relates to hardware failing due to 1) Compatibility (which HP website confirms is not the case) 2) OS corruption (which is not the case checking on safe mode and this happening STILL 3) Heat Issue (which I believe is the issue and was been documented on the Internet
    What I am noticing is the unit is extremely HOT (vent is almost burning when it has been off and just turned on).. I wonder if the hardware pieces are literally melting to destruction since I can't just open it up (they state it will void my warranty)
    The Symptoms before the Crash (happens any time.. Even right after a power up)
    If you are playing audio or video, you will start to hear jitters and sound seems to echo itself .. Video would start to lag and become choppy..  Systems start to slow down and things seem to run very slow.. I have seen the power light on the PC start on but the touchscreen just go black (will not restart sometimes)..
    Minor Issues (but could be related)
    1) When running PC Hardware Diagnostic, they will come up with an error code in the past and that was warranted for a motherboard replacement (of course, they ship the box to the wrong location and I was in the middle of my wedding so I get to it now).. It was pertaining to PCI Express Status ICH9 PCI Express Root Port  where it will generate an error code... Now, running the diagnostic... I will not get any error but PCI Express Root Port 3 & 5 do not show up on the diagnostic... Wouldn't that obvious show something that is a problem when there are 6 ports (which on the previous diagnostic that I can't grab past logs shows that). That is not warranted for a warranty work? Just a note, I got the fail test code (which was intermittent but keep happening and the tech support would not look at previous case.. Port 4 failed and a fatal device code)
    2) Blu-Ray player will not run and their answer is that it is your Blu-Ray until they realize that I ran it on 3 different Blu-Ray player standalone, different Blu-Ray, and confirm DVD will work.. They still think it is a software issue until they can't deny my point when it will not read the Blu-Ray no matter what (they took control and confirmed it).. They believe the HP SmartDVD software was failing because of Win 7 and not Vista (even when I downgrade and confirm it works, I stated the software is the issue...  Lone and behold, 2 months later they had an update that they refuse to admit I was RIGHT on the matter and done 15 hours of troubleshooting that they were wrong about)
    3) Wireless Keyboard and Mouse lost connectivity even if the battery is not low... Just stop typing or omit letters.. This is considering the keyboard is literally in front of the touchscreen
    4) Touchscreen is sensitive when it wants to be but won't in other... Constant issues there
    This is why I have so much issue with support.. They seem to show that they will do anything to deny the issue.. Heck, I am a computer technian calling on the issue.. It ain't like I didn't troubleshoot on the matter... But they think we are all morons and when I prove them wrong, they will use any excuse to honor warranty... That is why it is amazing..

    Look in your Settings > App Manager.
    Tap Device Monitor.
    Tap the Battery tab.
    At the upper right, tap "Since Last Charge" to change to "Last 48 Hours".
    What apps or processes are consuming the most battery power?
    ALSO, in setting up your new Z30, are you syncing many contacts or calendar data from a connected email account?
    Social accounts such as Facebook or Twitter?
