| ZzeCoOl | you need to remove any huge fan from your tower | 12:25 |

| mlots | charon79m: Basic networking debugging is fairly universal for Linux, but that wireless card may be an issue common to many distro's. | 12:49 |
| missvu | and also how to install audioscrobbler on my beep | 12:49 |
| mlots | 'r both are universal, but you have two parts to look at. | 12:50 |
| charon79m | This card works with this distro on another laptop... | 12:50 |

| rob0 | ACX-100 is a Texas Instruments chip which the mfr refused to document, so the acx100 project is reverse-engineering it | 01:17 |
| reijo01 | should I expect it to show up in the network settings on the drop down for wireless devices? | 01:18 |

| reijo01 | ogra how do I make sure that acx_pci is loaded? | 01:19 |
| rob0 | Elk_Brad, did you try it? What did you try? | 01:19 |
| ogra | reijo01: in a terminal type: lsmod|grep acx | 01:19 |
| ogra | Elk_Brad: it should appear automatically on your desktop if you plug it in | 01:20 |
| rob0 | ogra, reijo01's NIC being a plain 520, is acx_pci needed? | 01:20 |
| reijo01 | ogra its not there | 01:20 |
| rob0 | reijo01, try /sbin/pcimodules | 01:20 |
| reijo01 | as a command? | 01:20 |
| rob0 | yes | 01:20 |

| randabis | yeah you use samba | 04:14 |
| randabis | I did it before | 04:14 |
| p00p | you could do it other ways like with cups i think, but i don't really know | 04:15 |

| randabis | nevermind lol | 04:15 |
| yojimbosan | p00p ; good news. :-) no idea why that worked, though! | 04:15 |
| p00p | well i changed one option | 04:15 |
| p00p | the rest i left default, i think | 04:15 |
| yojimbosan | and the option was? | 04:15 |
| p00p | ahh here we go, i had to run it agian to look, lol | 04:16 |
| yojimbosan | skreet: install samba - that will share your printers when configured right. | 04:16 |
| p00p | kernel framebuffer device -- i picked yes because the description said yes was the safe bet | 04:16 |
| p00p | but no was the default | 04:16 |

| setite | how do i ass that | 06:26 |
| setite | im used to main or something like that | 06:26 |
| setite | in place of main do i put ./ | 06:26 |
| setite | or . | 06:26 |
| setite | or / | 06:26 |
| bob2 | setite: put it on a new line in /etc/apt/sources.list | 06:26 |

| jmhodges | linux-rulz: go to /schemas/apps/gnome-session/options/show_splash_screen | 06:27 |
| setite | thats my preferred method | 06:27 |
| setite | thwat is the ./ | 06:27 |
| jmhodges | linux-rulz: that last bit is the actual key name | 06:27 |
| jmhodges | hrm.. perhaps not | 06:27 |
| jmhodges | linux-rulz: try your .gnome2* | 06:27 |
| jmhodges | in your home dir | 06:27 |
| bob2 | setite: just edit it manually, it's very simple | 06:28 |
| setite | but what would i put if i did it in synaptic.... adding to the source.lst is easier i know... but i want to understand what each part pertains to | 06:28 |
| linux-rulz | jmhodges: whoops, i just unset that key and it removed it, is that a bad thing? | 06:28 |
| jmhodges | uh... damn, i couldnt even edit that thing.. | 06:29 |
| jmhodges | that could be | 06:29 |
| linux-rulz | hmmm...oh well, if it is, so be it, it isnt that hard to make a new user account :P | 06:29 |
| jmhodges | however, i have no idea when it comes to gconf | 06:29 |
| linux-rulz | lol, it looks as cryptic as the windows registry | 06:29 |
| linux-rulz | anyways, logging out and then back in, will let you know how it went | 06:30 |

| jmhodges | really, the only time i've seen gconf used by a user is when a developer (usually a non-gnome project developer) does something stupid.. | 06:33 |
| setite | this officially sucks... i know i added the repos correctly... and neither marillat or the cinelerra ones are working | 06:33 |
| jmhodges | setite: whats the error? | 06:33 |
| === jmhodges has had repo issues in synaptic.. | ||
| jmhodges | well, in all of dpkg, but i had a rought time learning how to do it in synaptic for osme reason (which is absolutely rediculous i know) | 06:34 |
| linux-rulz | jmhodges: lol, i'll let the gnome devs write a program that lets you do this simply like in kde, until then, the ubuntu splash screen is just fine | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | setite, my marillat is not working tonight | 06:34 |
| binReapr | is dificult to change the splash? | 06:34 |
| setite | it says it cant find packages.gz or something | 06:34 |
| setite | ok yoda... then its not just me | 06:34 |
| setite | still sucks thoughj | 06:34 |
| nomasteryoda | it was up for just a shortbit, then down again... it seems | 06:35 |
| linux-rulz | binReapr: who knows, i used to think it was difficult to edit your applications menu, but after typing in nautilus applications:/// it is easier than in kde | 06:35 |

| setite | ok solved the cinelerra problem | 06:47 |
| setite | the .deb sucks apparent.y | 06:47 |
| setite | apparently | 06:47 |
| setite | so i used alien to convert the rpm which was 2 megs bigger and the install went without a hitch | 06:47 |
| nomasteryoda | randabis, YEAH | 06:47 |
| nomasteryoda | sweet | 06:47 |
| setite | no more ntfs? | 06:48 |
| randabis | :) it was a leftover partition that had my mp3s and other things from windows...copied over everything, then formatted that partition to reiser | 06:48 |
| nomasteryoda | setite, i would guess he has moved beyond that into the world of linux... | 06:48 |

| bob2 | why are you downloading source? | 09:15 |
| bob2 | has someone posted a howto or somethign somewhere that recommends this? | 09:15 |
| visor | because the version in apt sources is too old | 09:15 |
| randabis | hah | 09:15 |
| bob2 | in what way is it too old? | 09:15 |
| visor | and because im more used to compile from source | 09:15 |
| visor | in the way that the version in apt sources is 0.26 and crashes many desklets and 0.32-1 version fixes tons of bugs of the older one, and, many new sensors do need the new version | 09:16 |

| nevyn | HrdwrBoB: I can't think of any distributions designed this century.. maybe xandros and lycoris | 10:06 |
| pisuke | Unholyfuneral, slackware as ubuntu, fedora, etc ... uses hotplug to detect devices. there's where most of booting time is wasted | 10:06 |
| daniels | Unholyfuneral: but in Hoary, our speed improvements will all be in both the installed system and the live CD | 10:06 |
| Unholyfuneral | it goes through an install Process | 10:06 |
| Unholyfuneral | but its supost to be live | 10:06 |
| Unholyfuneral | Yea i just dont like the way hoary looks like its installing and askes install questions | 10:07 |

| herman_ | daniels, ok, but i'm already sure it won't take 2 mins | 10:10 |
| Unholyfuneral | He he | 10:11 |
| madsen | HrdwrBoB: I'm trying to compile the fuse module, but the headers version is different from the source version, which again is different from the actual running version of the kernel. *sigh* | 10:11 |
| herman_ | readahead was already installed. | 10:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | madsen: get the linux-headers package that matches your kernel | 10:11 |
| madsen | HrdwrBoB: There is none. (?) | 10:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | use sudo ln -s to link /usr/src/linux to the correct linux-headers pckage | 10:12 |

| luc1f3r | when I boot my computer, it won't load X, so it goes to a unix shell, or whatever you call that | 10:40 |

| Zindar | madsen: yeah.. well... it's not fast starting it up.. but then... I only do that once a fay :) | 10:57 |
| madsen | Just gotta find the time. | 10:57 |
| Zindar | madsen: using the evolution backend? | 10:57 |
| Zindar | madsen: you should really because that means that other pieces of gnome will access it automatically... | 10:57 |
| madsen | Zindar: Nope, I think I'll go with a std address format like vcard or something, so it can be used by all kinds of apps. | 10:58 |
| mchasard | so for the new live cd ...which can boot after the network and material detection, | 10:58 |
| madsen | Zindar: I don't like evolution, so I sure as hell won't back it by developing with/for it. | 10:58 |
| Zindar | madsen: I think you'll loose then... lot's of other apps will use the evolution backend... | 10:58 |
| Zindar | madsen: the backend is independent of evolution and was part of gnome before evo became a part of it... | 10:59 |
| Zindar | you don't even need to have evo installed to use it | 10:59 |
| madsen | Zindar: Well, with vcard, one could easilly use my address book in evo instead of a separate evo one... | 10:59 |
| scandium | what's the recommended VoIP (using SIP/RTP) client for use with Ubuntu? The Gtk+ client I have been using so far (linphone) isn't in main | 10:59 |
| madsen | Zindar: If evo could just be pointed at a specific address book location, then it'd be no problem... | 11:00 |
| mchasard | evolution thunderbird , kmail ...sylpeed ...its only a question of feeling | 11:00 |
| mchasard | ;-) | 11:00 |
| madsen | mchasard: True... And I don't feel good about Evo. :) | 11:00 |
| Zindar | madsen: well... your life... there are lot's of stand alone addressbook apps... they need integration with other apps before they suceeds... they haven't... | 11:00 |
| madsen | Zindar: Exactly... How do you think the mac apps work so well together? | 11:01 |
| === HrdwrBoB is now known as gonebob | ||
| madsen | Zindar: Because they use a common format... | 11:01 |
| mchasard | i'm running under mandrakemove so just kmail is proposed ...and its enough for me | 11:01 |
| Zindar | madsen: because they use a standard interface... just a standard format isn't enough.... | 11:01 |
| madsen | Zindar: And most every mail-client can use vcard address books... | 11:01 |
| Zindar | they need to be able to query eachother live preferably... | 11:01 |
| madsen | Zindar: So, what do you need that a vcard can't give you? | 11:01 |
| Zindar | live querys.. a way to "lock" the addressbook so two apps don't use it at the same time, standard paths to it, etc... just wrappers around it.... | 11:02 |
| Zindar | s/use/write to / | 11:02 |
| madsen | Zindar: That can be implemented in like 30 secs... | 11:03 |
| madsen | Zindar: In the addr book app I mean. | 11:03 |
| madsen | That's more an application issue than a format issue. | 11:03 |
| luc1f3r | cam did you give up? | 11:04 |
| madsen | Standard paths? Not necesarry... An env var can take care of that. | 11:04 |
| mchasard | which other live cd do you propose me ? | 11:04 |
| Zindar | madsen: as long as you don't require multiple apps to use the same backend/files... which is the whole point if you want it as integrated as the mac tools... | 11:04 |
| Zindar | madsen: then standard env vars... | 11:05 |
| mchasard | with configuration save ... | 11:05 |
| madsen | Zindar: And wtf do you mean by "live queries"? | 11:05 |

| MM2 | last step in installer: Ubuntu provides additional etc... download from internet... HOW I TELL IT TO USE PROXY? | 11:47 |
| MM2 | I fell to text interface without X and I don't want it | 11:48 |
| DaNewB | ctrl-alt-f7? | 11:48 |
| MM2 | or how I after answering no, install DEFAULT packages after I have exported http_proxy? | 11:48 |

| === jocco is now known as poof | ||
| MM2 | ctrl-alt-f7 won't give graphical interface, becausi it is NOT installed | 11:49 |
| MM2 | because installer wants download them from internet, and it can't without proxy | 11:49 |

| MM2 | anyone? please! | 11:50 |
| MM2 | I have (tried) installed different distros for 3 days now... | 11:51 |
| === MM2 is getting pissed off... | ||
| MM2 | packages are in CD... | 11:51 |
| MM2 | Hmm... expert mode... reinstall... *uck! | 11:51 |
| madmatt | hrm - well in debian you can add lines to your apt-get cfg to make it search /mnt/cdrom first | 11:52 |
| madmatt | i wouldn't know about ubuntu, but maybe you could do that [note i just joined the channel so if i missed an important detail please tell ;D] | 11:52 |
| MM2 | but ubuntu installer wants to download them from internet! | 11:52 |
| DaNewB | madmatt, he has a proxy | 11:53 |
| madmatt | so you don't have the option to get them from cd [or is the problem that they're not on the cd at all?] | 11:53 |
| MM2 | I have 2 machines installed correctly, them didn't needed proxy. How I export package list from this so I can use apt to install same packages after I export http_proxy? | 11:54 |
| MM2 | madmatt: no | 11:54 |
| MM2 | madmatt: installer wants to download them | 11:54 |

| MM2 | DaNewB: because our ISP:s firewall lets them to access internet without proxy | 11:57 |
| DaNewB | MM2, normally, the installer asks you if you want to update now or not(I think)? | 11:57 |
| MM2 | DaNewB: and if I answer NO, I end up with text interface | 11:58 |
| MM2 | how I can install graphical iface after that? | 11:58 |
| MM2 | and other default packages? | 11:58 |
| DaNewB | MM2, oh, that's weird. Try "apt-get update upgrade" maybe? | 11:59 |

| MM2 | DaNewB: and it CAN't, because it needs proxy to download them | 12:01 |
| DaNewB | MM2, then set up your proxy? | 12:01 |
| MM2 | DaNewB: packages woult be in CD, but installer completely ignores them | 12:01 |
| MM2 | DaNewB: I CAN'T tell insteller to use proxy!!!!!!! | 12:01 |

| firstknight | scandium, I hope ubuntu have one like this: http://packages.gentoo.org/ | 01:40 |
| FuNgEx | my first impression of linux was not very good... i tried gentooo | 01:40 |
| Cam- | fungex: good eh ;) | 01:40 |
| DaNewB | firstknight, Debian has a page like that too | 01:40 |
| firstknight | souki, is it that much??????? | 01:40 |
| FuNgEx | i couldn't get to have gnome... | 01:40 |
| elyseum | not good for a first start, too hard | 01:40 |
| Hwolf | Heh. Gentoo is great. As long as you don't need to get anything done. :-) | 01:40 |

| FuNgEx | i'm a gnome fan so i've tried suse 9.2 but did not like having gnome 2.6 and even there was to many things to choose etc | 01:44 |
| FuNgEx | i like "your" keep it simple philosophy | 01:44 |
| souki | firstknight: I'm not an ubuntu converted yet, I'm just testing it. Good desktop, but not enough packages | 01:44 |

| FuNgEx | Nice help too thx you | 01:45 |
| DaNewB | souki, not too much packages, but enough, yes | 01:45 |
| firstknight | I just worry if I installed ubuntu, I have to install many software manually. With gentoo or debian or fc, you have many packages that you can forget about ./configure; make; make install | 01:45 |
| firstknight | I think it is not wise to mix the debian packages with ubuntu packages........ | 01:46 |

| t31 | bretzel: ok ok :) | 04:54 |
| t31 | bretzel by the way tell me as well how to get the other linux partition here couse this is chinese for me now :P | 04:55 |
| ACID|net | i dont know weather i should buy an mac mini or an imac (at uni, dont really want to keep taking monitors home but could do it) | 04:55 |
| bretzel | t31: /dev/hda1 /mnt/xpfs ntfs defaults,umask=0555 0 0 --- for the first line | 04:55 |
| ACID|net | only got laptop here atm | 04:55 |
| tritium | macmini is tempting for the price | 04:55 |
| ACID|net | i really dont know what i should do, i can afford both - its just the roon | 04:55 |
| bretzel | and then /dev/hda8 /mnt/xpfat32 vfat defaults,users,dmask=000,fmask=111 0 0 --- for the scond line :-) :-) sorry | 04:56 |
| t31 | bretzel: that one is like u said, done | 04:56 |
| ACID|net | gettign a new TFT For my room back home tho so i could use the mini at home on a proper monitor with bluetooth keyboard, and vnc when at uni maybe | 04:56 |
| tritium | ACID|net, do you have a decent TV? You could display at least 640x480 on a TV | 04:56 |
| t31 | bretzel: got it | 04:56 |
| daniels | ntsc specifies 640x480 and pal 800x600, iirc | 04:56 |

| === lmurillo [~lmurillo@196.40.30.36] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| t31 | bretzel: corrected :) | 05:01 |
| lonewolff | i dont have resolvconf installed (unless ubuntu installed it during install) | 05:01 |
| t31 | bretzel: i can see the fat32 one | 05:01 |
| tritium | lonewolff, I think it's installed by default. | 05:01 |
| bretzel | tri31: it is my fault :-) ok for the ntfs partition -- me too I can't read the partition as a user - only as root, maybe someone can tell what attr should be given in fstab ? | 05:02 |
| tritium | lonewolff, dpkg -l resolvconf would tell you | 05:02 |
| sandor | my wireless was working, then deleted it cause my Ethernet net would not working and then I tried to add it and it wont enable | 05:02 |
| t31 | bretzel:np i will find out, could u help me with the knoppix one? if it isnt to ask for too much O:) | 05:02 |
| lonewolff | tritium: ah ic it is installed | 05:02 |
| lonewolff | apt-get remove resolvconf ? | 05:03 |
| Freduardo | t31, bretzel: what line did you put in fstab? | 05:03 |
| Freduardo | for the ntfs I mean | 05:03 |
| bretzel | t31: you can the fat32, and you should be able to write on it also : -) - for the ntfs partition, it is not yet possible to write on it. but --- Freduardo: | 05:03 |
| t31 | /dev/hda1 /mnt/xpfs ntfs defaults,umask=0555 0 0 | 05:03 |
| t31 | freduardo:/dev/hda1 /mnt/xpfs ntfs defaults,umask=0555 0 0 | 05:03 |
| bretzel | Freduardo: defaults,umask=0555 0 0 | 05:04 |
| tritium | lonewolff, well, you could try it, I guess. | 05:04 |
| Freduardo | hmm, ive got : ro,user,umask=0222 | 05:04 |
| tritium | lonewolff, use the "-s" option to simulate it first | 05:04 |
| bretzel | hehehe: t31: what do you need to know about knoppix ? | 05:04 |
| tritium | and see what it's going to do | 05:04 |
| Freduardo | seems to work fine as user here | 05:04 |
| bretzel | Freduardo: Not for me too can read ntfs as user ... | 05:05 |
| lonewolff | hmmm it says resolvconf is not installed when i try to remove it | 05:05 |
| lonewolff | and if i try to install resolvconf i says its not available | 05:05 |
| tritium | ? | 05:05 |
| tritium | strange | 05:05 |
| t31 | freduardo:got it | 05:05 |
| lonewolff | Package resolvconf is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 05:06 |
| lonewolff | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 05:06 |
| lonewolff | is only available from another source | 05:06 |
| lonewolff | E: Package resolvconf has no installation candidate | 05:06 |
| t31 | bretzel: i have a partition with that distro but i quitted, it is a mess! :P | 05:06 |
| t31 | bretzel, freduardo: now sudo mount -a again? | 05:06 |
| tritium | lonewolff, your network interface in /etc/network/interfaces doesn't have "dhcp" specified anywhere? | 05:06 |
| lonewolff | nope | 05:07 |
| bretzel | t31: no sudo umount /mnt/xpfs; mount -a | 05:07 |
| lonewolff | both wireless and wifi use fixed ip addresses | 05:07 |
| tritium | resolvconf is only supposed to change resolv.conf if dhcp is used anyway | 05:07 |
| tritium | that's strange | 05:08 |
| bretzel | t31: the partition with screwed knoppix: what do you want to do with that partition ? | 05:08 |
| t31 | bretzel: cant mount :( /dev/hda1 /mnt/xpfs ntfs defaults,ro,user,umask=0222 0 0 | 05:08 |

| globetek | it just feels wierd having a distro that automaticly configures gui stuff for you | 05:44 |
| matthias | sda? | 05:45 |
| t31 | bretzel for dvds try with videolan, works really fine, at least it did under knoppix and windows | 05:45 |
| pdkl | eh, im on a sata controller | 05:45 |
| pdkl | /dev/xxxx | 05:45 |
| matthias | and what does rw and umask=000 mean? ^ | 05:45 |
| bretzel | Some day EA-/Westwood game: Command and Conquer Generals - will play in linux.... I will say BYE-BYE Window$ | 05:46 |
| globetek | i'm new to PC land pretty much ive been amiga user for years and just a few months ago built pc and put bsd on it and linux on it | 05:46 |
| kent | matthias, rw and umask=000 means that all user on your computer can read/write to that drive.. | 05:46 |
| globetek | something just feels wierd with ubuntu..it feels..like i have no control almost | 05:46 |
| bretzel | t31: Videoland: dunno - I know vlc but can't do nothing with it execpted play videos | 05:46 |
| matthias | will the winxp-folder(i guess i can name it to what i want?) be crated automatically or do i have to do it? | 05:46 |
| kent | matthias, just save the file and either reboot or, as hannes__ said, run "mount -a" from a terminal. "mount -a" mounts all devices in fstab, i think | 05:47 |
| sanman_nor | I have a problem with my wireless lan connection. It worked yesterday, but I could not get my comp to recognize my ethernet, so I deleted both and then added them, starting with the ethernet, the wireless will not activate. I tried deleteing all connections, and creating the wireless that still did not work | 05:47 |
| pdkl | matthias, you have to do it | 05:47 |
| bretzel | What I want is tools for dvdauthoring, to be able to create DVD from windows.avi mpeg4 files :-) | 05:47 |

| wastrel | testing is more stable | 06:19 |
| froust | i see. | 06:19 |
| froust | sid is always the name for their development | 06:19 |
| globetek | unstable is stable enough for me | 06:19 |
| DaNewB | globetek, sure you can write CDs | 06:20 |

| globetek | i'm still adapting to linux world | 06:20 |

| globetek | better midi support | 06:20 |
| globetek | i was going to start development of amidi sequencing ap | 06:21 |
| wastrel | froust: they pick new release names for testing, then it moves to stable. so the current stable "woody" was testing before it was released | 06:21 |
| globetek | heh | 06:21 |
| HostingGeek | sid can also stand for Still In Devoplement | 06:21 |
| HostingGeek | but doesn't | 06:21 |
| froust | so after sarge becomes stable, they pick a new name for the unstable and testing? | 06:21 |
| wastrel | froust: no, they'll pick a new name for testing but sid never changes sid == unstable always | 06:22 |
| froust | okay... got it. | 06:22 |

| DaNewB | jazzka, or try what HappyFool says. That way, you can access the contents of the ISO without even having to burn it to CD! | 07:46 |
| jazzka | DaNewB, I downloaded it with mldonkey; it's an old game | 07:46 |

| jazzka | mount: could not find any device /dev/loop# | 07:48 |
| jazzka | ?? | 07:48 |
| DaNewB | HappyFool, loopback has to be compiled in kernel | 07:48 |
| mgedmin | jazzka, modprobe loop | 07:48 |
| rob0 | HappyFool, try sudo modprobe -v loop | 07:48 |
| HappyFool | ah-ha | 07:48 |
| randabis | loop is compiled in the ubuntu kernels by default | 07:48 |
| HappyFool | jazzka: you got that? | 07:49 |
| randabis | just isn't loaded automaticall | 07:49 |
| randabis | y | 07:49 |
| jazzka | yeah | 07:49 |
| randabis | err | 07:49 |
| randabis | it's actually a module | 07:49 |

| jazzka | mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, | 07:51 |
| jazzka | or too many mounted file systems | 07:51 |
| jazzka | (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use | 07:51 |

| Agrajag | tranceConscious: you only need to ask once | 09:04 |
| froust | sudo su- | 09:05 |
| froust | then your password | 09:05 |
| froust | then you're root | 09:05 |
| froust | then passwd | 09:05 |
| Agrajag | tranceConscious: you don't need a root password, and I advise against setting one. | 09:05 |
| froust | or launch a root console | 09:05 |
| froust | but yeah... what Agrajag said | 09:05 |
| Agrajag | just use sudo, and your own password. | 09:05 |
| help_please | guys my problem solved | 09:05 |

| Agrajag | You can use sudo to run any program with root priveleges, using your password. | 09:06 |
| tranceConscious | got it | 09:06 |
| tranceConscious | sudo su - | 09:06 |
| Agrajag | yes, that'll get you to a root shell | 09:07 |

| yojimbosan | space before the version number is important (I have no 6.8.1 packages ....) | 10:16 |

| Craigory | rob0 -- it is possible my mixer settings are still incorrect, but I have tried many combinations now. Also I have checked both the alsa and oss devices. | 11:30 |
| darkmo0n | theres no file called xdefaults | 11:30 |
| darkmo0n | there | 11:30 |

| darkmo0n | HrdwrBoB, i ran that, but it didnt ask me about modes | 11:31 |
| HrdwrBoB | darkmo0n: what LCD do you have | 11:31 |
| rob0 | Craigory, that would be my guess, check the "rec" and uncheck "mute" in the GNOME mixer. | 11:31 |
| darkmo0n | dell 2001fp | 11:31 |
| rob0 | does Ubuntu have "alsaconf"? I use that in Slackware and it's almost always right. | 11:32 |
| Craigory | The microphone is unmuted, and the volume is at max. This produces some hiss, but no useful output. | 11:32 |
| darkmo0n | theres 'alsamixer' | 11:32 |
| AndyR | anyone managed skype on ubuntu? | 11:32 |
| Craigory | Alsaconf is provided by (in the apt-get sense) the alsa-utils package, but there is no executable called "alsaconf" in the package. | 11:33 |

| rob0 | Slackware puts alsaconf at /usr/sbin/alsaconf, and it's just a shell script, looks like it should work with any distro, more or less. | 11:36 |
| darkmo0n | i will be here for a while, but you dont have to do that | 11:36 |
| rob0 | Craigory, if it's not executable, make it so, and run it. (But first you should unload all your ALSA modules ... can't do it from X.) | 11:37 |
