Had some nice work yesterday [09:02] :) [09:03] yeh? [09:04] cbx33, yes. Had to fix a compromised Windows box [09:04] ooooh cool [09:04] I've done that before [09:04] someone had installed an smtp server on there [09:04] client was very happy. I drop off an Ubuntu CD for him to try when I'm next there [09:04] was sending tonnes of spam [09:04] Yagisan, ahahahah === RichEd [n=richard@dsl-146-134-244.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #edubuntu [09:06] RichEd, any outcome yet? [09:06] hello [09:06] hi cbx33 ... [09:07] yes, decision, but unfortunately not in support :( [09:07] ok cool [09:07] Right I want to make an apology for not getting the meeting minutes done of late [09:07] I think I have missed two weeks [09:07] the policy at this stage is that Canonical will support groups who have a stand, and want to promote Edubuntu [09:08] I can see not why it was always so difficult for JaneW to keep up [09:08] s/not/now [09:08] but it is not commercially possible to pay for stands ... with one exception [09:08] RichEd, yeh, that's fine [09:09] I knew that would be the answer anyway so I'm not supprised [09:09] if there is an IT in education conference, where various Linux flavours are competing for prominence, Edubuntu should consider representation [09:09] re minutes, not significant if you can catch up [09:10] roughly how much does a stand cost? I have no idea [09:10] Laser_away, a lot [09:11] $900 per square metre [09:11] On the conference note, following my discussions with Mark, I'll share later this week where we stand, and what the targets are for the next 12 months. [09:11] hey guys [09:11] ok RichEd [09:12] what about the other stuff like edubuntu packs [09:12] cbx33: wow!! [09:12] Laser_away, yup [09:12] In brief, at this stage, we are a "cost expense to canonical" and need to move towards self-sufficiency (cost vs income). [09:12] right [09:12] so basically a no go on pretty much everything [09:12] There are some set steps to acheiving this, and the order of execution & promotion is important. [09:13] No, that was in refefernce to my above thread ! [09:13] Packs & support, yes. T-Shirts, disks, stickers. Case studies on the way. [09:13] ah right cool [09:13] yay [09:13] community booths would be hot with those [09:14] So we can assist other people already with a promotion vehicle. [09:14] http://www.engadget.com/2006/08/06/another-powerbook-violently-explodes/ [09:14] RichEd: does Canonical sell commercial support for Edubuntu? [09:14] Any event, conference or promotion or school-open-day ... can all request support. [09:15] Laser_away: sure [09:15] Laser_away: not yet ... there has been no call (for desktop) [09:15] its still Ubuntu [09:15] But is is an area that can be explored ... where it makes sense. [09:16] RichEd: you need to get Edubuntu into universities with lots of grant money ;-) [09:16] edubuntu classroom server support seems to have potential [09:16] e.g. If an Education department standardises on Edubuntu desktop ... they may want support [09:17] e.g. If an Education department standardises on Edubuntu servers ... they may want support [09:17] but 1 server in one classroom is probably not a proposition from either side [09:17] hi jsgotangco [09:17] RichEd: hey! === RichEd will be busy for a while ... i'll be here ... but not too attentive [09:19] sure sure [09:20] i made a 30 page slide on Edubuntu === Laser_away goes back away ;-) [09:20] its very very basic [09:35] good mornign everyone [09:42] 'lo hi' === pygi [n=pygi@89-172-224-213.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu [09:59] :) [09:59] locate ogra [10:03] *database non-existant* [10:27] hi ... anyone seen ogra or rodarvus around lately ? [10:35] RichEd: saw today's wikipedia featured article? [10:35] not yet ... wossit about ? [10:44] highvoltage: you talkin' about chippy & shabby & zoomie ? [10:44] RichEd: hehe, yes [10:45] a sorry state of affairs ... or to be accurate a sorry affair of the state ") === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu [10:47] i see ubuntu was a featured article recently ... pity we caught a saturday when people weren't browsing at work [10:47] hi ogra :) [10:47] hey ogra [10:48] hey [10:48] ogra: can I specify another NFS root than /opt/ltsp/i386 in the tftpboot kernel line? do you know if I can use root=/opt/ltsp/other? [10:49] i'll chat to you a bit later ogra ... we may need to set up a short meeting tomorrow with rodarvus to go through some things. [10:49] you can specify anything you like in your dhcpd.conf [10:49] RichEd, fine with me :) [10:50] ogra: when we see rodarvus popping his head in, we can discuss a time ... i'll need to send an agenda to you before hand [10:50] highvoltage, i can specify different chroots for i386 and powerpc ... but there is no easy way to distinguish between amd64 and i386 on dhcp level [10:51] but on a personal note, hope all is well with your new accomodation, and that you are settled & comfortable (in all aspects) [10:52] well, i'm painting the new office alongside my workday :) but its all fine [10:52] did a lot of work on local device support over the weekend ... [10:53] watch out for those paint fumes in confinmed spaces ... can make your computer screen go a bit fuzzy & woozy after prolonged exposure [10:54] (unless you like that sort if thing ... then breathe deeply) [10:54] of <- if [10:55] i'm a strong smoker, the tar will prevent the poison from entering my loungs ;) [11:00] ogra: aah, i should've known. took a sinus pill this morning now my head is screwed up [11:01] ouch [11:01] RichEd: getting of and if confused can be dangerous with some commands ;) [11:01] ogra: what you *could* do is look at the mac address (different mother boards -> probably different chipsets), but that would require a shitload of seperate work since dhcpd doesn't allow wildcards in the MAC's I think [11:01] yep [11:02] different chipsets -> different MAC chipset -> different prefix in MAC address [11:02] but many people do that for their lts.conf already, so that would only be a lot of copy paste work :) [11:03] oh and btw: ltsp-client sucks monkey balls [11:03] you can also hack stuff into dhcp like verdor strings etc if you use a rom-o-matic image... but that will not work with plain PXE ... [11:04] Chipzz, oh, why ? it does what it should ... [11:04] I ended up just dpkg -P 'ing it, and brewing my own shit [11:04] in fact its only a single initscript and a bunch of dependencys [11:04] ogra: startx doesn't do what you think it should do; startx is supposed to run xinit, but instead launches X -query [11:04] also, the arguments for the syntax is not what you'ld expect [11:05] its the documented ltsp syntax ... [11:05] second, I get no keyboard input in X using the startx method [11:05] would be news to me that it differs [11:05] ogra: startx on command-line -> .xinitrc ; startx in ltsp -> X -query [11:05] i didnt do the startx implementation though ... debian is the only one who userd it so far [11:06] that's just confusing and retarded [11:06] then lets fi it in edgy ;) you are the first ubuntu user playing with it afaik :) [11:06] s/fi/fix/ [11:06] startx -- -br on the commandline, "startx -br" in ltsp config [11:07] well, thats trivial to fix ... :) [11:07] only important thing is that we dont differ too much from the ltsp.org docs [11:07] but worse... keyboard plainly does not work at all when using the startx methyod [11:07] did you check xorg.conf ? [11:07] is the entry in there at all ? [11:08] I did, and running X from an init-script does give me keyboard input [11:08] thats weird ... shounds like an X bug [11:08] which is what I'm doing now [11:08] it should just pick up xorg.conf settings [11:08] ogra: I think it's related to the fact that we start X with start-stop-daemon or such [11:09] doesn't start-stop-daemon close the input and output descriptors of that process in order to daemonize it? [11:09] might be, i made a note on my TODO ... i'll look into it [11:09] the startx scripts, is that ours or ltsps? [11:09] for now i have some more elementary probs to solve to get ltsp working at all ;) [11:10] i think thats ported from ltsp [11:10] so changing the semantics to make it use startx and/or xinit would be a break from upstream and their docs? :/ [11:10] as i said, i didnt touch it ... i'll ask petter (pere from skolelinux) if he's around again [11:11] well, we plan to merge with upstream, so we should use their syntax where possible indeed [11:21] lol. it would help if I changed the root-path in the right dhcpd.conf :) [11:22] heh [11:25] ogra: ltsp chroot didn't build :( [11:26] how did it fail ? [11:27] 11:26 < lucasvo> Unpacking xserver-xorg (from .../xserver-xorg_1%3a7.0.22ubuntu7_all.deb) ... [11:27] (ltsp-update-sshkeys and ltsp-update-kernels isnt run yet) [11:27] 11:26 < lucasvo> xserver-xorg config warning: failed to infer keyboard layout from layout/lang '10 debian-installer/keymap doesn't exist--10 debian-installer/language doesn't exist' [11:27] 11:26 < lucasvo> Server symlink checksum doesn't exist. We need to make it [11:27] thats fine [11:27] 11:27 < lucasvo> I'll try again [11:27] its only a warning, not an error [11:27] and why does it abort afterwards [11:28] oh, well in that case it doesn't give me a warining at all [11:28] it just aborted [11:28] I don't have the logs any more, I'll build again [11:28] yep, redirect it to a logfile [11:36] ogra: installing ltspfs on the server is enough? no configuration needed? [11:38] no, you need a bunch of scripts i'm currently writing :) [11:38] :P [11:39] ltsp-client needs a way to start ltspfsd, udev needs two rules scripts for mount/umount [11:39] and /tmp/drives needs to be created by the ltsp-client initscript [11:40] then you are able to manually mount it to the user session ... [11:40] the automatic part is done by a script thats currently in the works here [11:40] here you go: http://pastebin.ca/120365 [11:42] does `/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/apt/sources.list' exist ? [11:43] looks like an apt problem [11:45] re you sure you have enough diskspace ? [11:46] and did you delete the old chroot before starting over ? === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu [11:48] /dev/hda1 24G 16G 7.6G 67% / [11:48] ok [11:48] cat sources.list: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main restricted [11:48] can you run it again with the --debug flag ?

[11:49] yes === rodarvus [n=rodarvus@ubuntu/member/rodarvus] has joined #edubuntu [12:10] hello rodarvus ... how's things ? [12:24] ogra: just failed once again [12:24] http://pastebin.ca/120425 [12:24] lucasvo, log ? [12:24] ah [12:27] if i could reach pastebin.ca that would help ... [12:27] hi RichEd! [12:27] rodarvus: can we make a time for a 30 min meeting tomorrow ? ogra + rodarvus + RichEd [12:28] ogra: these pastebins are crap [12:28] all fine, wife & daughter just left to work/school - a new day (and week!) is coming :) [12:28] but pastebin.com is even worse [12:28] RichEd, sure, I'll be available all day long from 11:00 AM to 09:00 PM [12:28] I can wake up early if needed be, too [12:28] ogra, nobody can [12:29] lucasvo, paste on ubuntu pastebin [12:29] paste.ubuntu.nl or something :) [12:29] pygi, i can after 10 mins or so ... [12:29] 11:00 AM to 09:00 PM <- UTC ? [12:29] in 30 mins ? [12:29] voip or IRC ? [12:29] RichEd, yes, UTC [12:30] (thats 08:00 AM to 06:00 PM localtime) [12:30] lucasvo, that looks really not like an ltsp problem ... either you cant access the packages from the archive or something weird with your apt is going on [12:30] I usually start the day before that (at 07:30 AM) but it depends if my wife is late for work or not :P [12:31] great ... ogra ? pick a time between 11:00 and 15:00 UTC ? 30 mins ? [12:34] ogra: so what am I supposed to do to get the chroot working? [12:34] lucasvo, [12:34] Building dependency tree... [12:34] laptop-detect is already the newest version. [12:34] The following extra packages will be installed: [12:34] how does laptop-detect end up there ? did you delete the old chroot before running the script ` [12:34] ? [12:34] yes [12:35] lucasvo, i have no idea whats wrong there, do you use a proxy or something ? [12:35] it builds fine here on all three aches [12:35] *arches [12:35] no [12:37] ogra, how do you want me to call the Edubuntu presentation that I'll be holding at UUC? [12:37] and most importantly, anything special you want me to tell? :) [12:37] "ALL YOUR SCHOOLS ARE BELONG TO US" [12:38] Edubuntu w00t! :) [12:38] dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/xinit_1.0.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb (--unpack): [12:38] trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man5/Xsession.5.gz', which is also in package x11-common [12:38] lucasvo, ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ [12:38] I mean,com'on, help is welcome :) [12:38] lucasvo, poke rodarvus ;) [12:38] thats his bug :) [12:38] rodarvus: I am supposed to poke you :) [12:39] ogra: it has already been filed? [12:39] no idea, i dont monitor X bugs that closely === lucasvo doesn't like the LP search interface [12:40] i suspect its a temporary thing ... likely one of the packages hasnt built yes [12:40] *yet [12:40] ok [12:40] lucasvo, no, it hasn't been fixed [12:40] how comes that your machines build fine and mine dont'? [12:40] funny stuff is it didn't happened locally [12:40] lucasvo, i use the german mirror ... thats not up to date ;) [12:40] rodarvus: ok, when will it get into the archives? [12:40] lucasvo, someday [12:41] as I said, I haven't fixed this yet [12:41] likely later today [12:41] lucasvo, I seriously doubt this is the worse bug you'll find in edgy [12:41] rodarvus: oh, I misread it, I thought you said it has been already fixed [12:41] (really :) ) [12:41] ogra: well the ch mirror is uptodate [12:41] germany is lame :P [12:41] lucky me then ;) [12:42] xinit was published early afternoon, last Friday [12:42] and x11-common ? [12:42] so I seriously doubt any mirror is not updated WRT this package [12:42] i built chroots the whole wekend just fine [12:42] x11-common is even older [12:42] *weekend [12:42] lol [12:42] ogra, yeah, thats why this bug is really strange for me [12:42] I don't have this file on package 'xinit' locally [12:43] ogra: for the germans we will release edgy a week later :P [12:43] and i dont have that problem here ... [12:43] what's the difference of locally and not? [12:43] btw, why do we install man packages in the chroot at all? [12:44] because the manpage isnt in a separate package [12:44] but man is [12:44] debian policy requires a manpage for every executable in /usr/bin or /bin [12:44] so if you ship a binary it needs to have a manpage in the package [12:52] ogra: pleae confirm if you can make a meeting in #canonical at 12:30 UTC tomorrow ?

[04:12] RichEd: excellent [04:13] hmmm [04:13] irssi has a problem [04:13] whoever said, "is half busy" I can't see your name? [04:13] it's white [04:14] any ideas? [04:14] RichEd is half busy (on the phone) [04:14] crikey just joining #ubuntu lost me 100K [04:14] ahhh [04:14] anyone know how I can sort out irssi [04:16] right I'm off [04:16] almost used up my free 500K [04:16] heheh [04:37] pong cbx33 [04:37] ajmitch: Did you get your authtool uploaded yet? [04:38] I'm not finding it through the package search === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu === arkan0x [n=arkan0x@pc-6-76-214-201.cm.vtr.net] has joined #edubuntu [04:58] brilliant: http://www.improveverywhere.com/mission_view.php?mission_id=54 [04:59] yay, RichEd just made my evolution explode :) [05:00] seems the development version doesnt like appointment attachments :) [05:00] file a bug report : block user richard from calendaring interchange [05:00] ogra & rodarvus : ignore first date ... wed = actually tue [05:01] i doubt anyone in the company ever used or tested that feature :) so thats great, go on using it as you would expect, thats invaluable test data ;) [05:01] the desktop toolbar calendar is Sun - Sat view [05:01] evolution is Mon - Sun view [05:02] requires a mind shift whenever you check out a date, and then go to make an appointment [05:02] can't seem to see how i can change either one to look like the other === pygi [n=pygi@89-172-227-94.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #edubuntu [05:03] i think its somehow based on your language/locale selection [05:03] seb128 would know ... [05:04] he's inactive now in #canonical ... will drop him a mail ... is he Mr Evolution ? [05:04] or Mr Desktop Clock ? :) [05:04] intrestingly the appointment was added to my calendar ... evo just died afterwards :) [05:04] he's Mr. Desktop [05:05] he's active in #ubuntu-devel [05:05] tx. [05:05] and in -bugs [05:05] ogra, strange, I was able to accept RichEd's invitation just fine [05:06] maybe something architecture dependant? [05:06] rodarvus, my evo might be outdated [05:06] i havnet upgraded since thursday [05:06] oh [05:06] hi ogra [05:06] hey juliux [05:07] ogra, any idea about why the users have to enable xdmcp ?? [05:07] -about [05:07] ogra: I hope "X" is not on the regexp of the excuses for not upgrading since Thursday :) [05:07] rodarvus, if i'm developing a feature i keep the last 100% working system snapshot ;) [05:07] nice [05:07] ogra: selb128 is "last msg: unknown" in #ubuntu-devel as well ... will mail him. tx. [05:08] juliux, i answered your mail [05:08] ogra, oh [05:08] they break their systems by what reason ever ... [05:08] they said they only installed edubuntu [05:08] xdmcp isnt used nor supported in *buntu [05:08] i dont belive that [05:09] ogra, ok, i was ver confused about this [05:09] ldm wont gain anything if xdmcp is enabled ... it wont use it [05:09] if they changed their IP post install, they should run ltsp-update-sshkeys ... thats the most common FAQ we have [05:10] the symptom of it is that they cant log in through ldm ... running the command solves it [05:10] that i told them [05:10] do you have an url ? [05:11] ogra, only a few forums posts [05:11] but not realy information [05:11] i am on my way to find out what they have done [05:12] they have the right ltps verison [05:12] xdmcp would only work if you used gdm on the client, which we dont even install there [05:13] ahhh rodarvus : a minor buglet ... or usage issue ... rod@ubuntu accepted an appointment maile to rod.no@canonical ... so it says you are an unonown person accepted your appointment [05:13] ahn [05:13] bummer [05:13] tried adding both email addresses to you in the contacts ... but it 'aint smart enough to work that one out [05:13] not significant ... just f.y.i. [05:14] evolution is supposed to do this correctly - I wonder why it doesn't [05:14] i suspect they have written a weird lts.conf or installed ltsp 4.2 or whatever [05:15] a quick multi-boot question if someone has a moment: i've got 3 *buntu boots, so my grub menu.lst is not where 2 of the installs expect [05:16] when i do an upgrade, and it changes menu.lst must i manually carry the change over ? [05:16] RichEd, all should stay [05:17] so no manual changes needed [05:17] thanks pygi, but not sure what you mean ... i'll expand: [05:17] my Edubuntu boot is on hda3 [05:18] but my last install was Kubuntu on hda7 [05:18] so all boots use the grub file /hda7/boot/grub/menu.lst [05:19] but my update says: testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found ... updating ... [05:20] so my question is ... is it smart enough to know which menyu.lst was used for booting, or does it just look for the expected file in the expected volume & folder ??? === RichEd goes off to hunt down time stamps and see which file actually got updated === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #edubuntu === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #edubuntu [06:02] goodnight === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #edubuntu === Xymor [i=enforcer@201.19.147.45] has joined #edubuntu === LaserJock [n=LaserJoc@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #edubuntu === LaserJock [n=LaserJoc@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #edubuntu [06:29] cbx33, pong (again) [06:35] hi Yagisan [06:35] just saying hey [06:35] howz ya day [06:35] that kinda thing [06:36] brb === JanisLee is now known as JanisLee_ === JanisLee_ [n=Janis@201-25-141-4.ctame704.dsl.brasiltelecom.net.br] has left #edubuntu [] [06:45] np cbx33 [06:45] I'm fine. getting the CIA bot set up for my project for irc notification of commits === JanisLee [n=JanisLee@201-25-141-4.ctame704.dsl.brasiltelecom.net.br] has joined #edubuntu === dan_young [n=dan_youn@fw13x.mesd.k12.or.us] has joined #edubuntu === th1a_ [n=th1a@pool-64-223-19-28.prov.east.verizon.net] has joined #edubuntu [07:04] nice [07:07] cbx33, it's good for people like me that see irc before their email arrives [07:07] cbx33, so, how did your python packaging go for gisomount ? === nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #edubuntu [07:18] ogra, any idea? http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/42145/ [07:20] still waiting for it i enter the universe :p === nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #edubuntu [07:21] juliux, no [07:22] yes yes yes i am not the only perso who has no idea ;) [07:31] ogra, you have a sec? :) [07:31] I really need title for my edubuntu presentation ^_^ [07:45] cbx33, want more python software to package ? [07:53] Yagisan: no, you can't have him, he's my python slave ;-) [07:53] LaserJock, but, but - I need a python slave [07:53] LaserJock, hmm, perhaps you'll do instead >:) [07:54] hehe [07:59] LaserJock, it's just a small app, but I know SFA about python, so I'm not keen on packaging it myself === Petaris [n=Petaris@216.56.37.162] has left #edubuntu ["Out"] [08:00] Yagisan: oh, you need packaging? [08:00] LaserJock, it would be nice. I made an attempt a while ago and screwed up [08:01] Yagisan: ah, I thought you needed an app written [08:01] packaging is a bit easier [08:01] but the new python policy is a bit confusing at times [08:01] Yagisan: got a URL for the source tarball? [08:02] nope. app is written, I just need it packages, but the packager needs to know python to help me make it policy complent, as it needs to work with my packages [08:02] LaserJock, indeed it is [08:03] LaserJock, sure. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/deng/snowberry.tar.gz?download [08:04] LaserJock, perhaps we should go either to #doomsday (upstream) or pm to discuss this, rather then in #edubuntu ? [08:04] LaserJock, gisomount still isn;t it :p [08:05] cbx33, don't worry, my deng package isn't in yet, and I first tried with hoary [08:05] Yagisan, *gah* [08:06] cbx33, I doubt you have the same issues as me [08:06] what was your issue? [08:06] Yagisan, did you get my pm? [08:06] cbx33, licenses [08:07] aaahhh === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu [08:29] Yagisan: I don't have much time to do it right now, but I think between you, cbx33, and myself it wouldn't take too long [08:29] arg the lag [08:30] Yagisan, I'm sure I can help out [08:30] LaserJock, ok. It's not urgent, but it would be much appreciated [08:32] thanks too cbx33 [08:32] np [08:33] cbx33, have much free time at the moment ? [08:34] Yagisan, ship over what you have I'll take a look when I get a sec [08:34] (when I take my headphones off....still working o nsounds) [08:34] Yagisan: RE: intel8x0 (nf2) yes, audio is supported. What's the issue? [08:35] crimsun, ah. A user I converted is claiming no sound. [08:35] crimsun, what should I go through with them to check what's wrong ? [08:35] Yagisan: at all or in specific apps? [08:37] crimsun, as far as I'm aware, it is all apps [08:38] Yagisan: in the former case (which reads like a mixer misconfiguration), check the following mixer elements: 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' (which will need to be set to either 0 or 3 most commonly, more rarely 1), 'Master'/'PCM' (should be unmuted and set to non-zero levels), and 'External Amplifier' (which either needs to be muted or unmuted depending on the codec revision) [08:38] crimsun, any ideas ? (dapper box) [08:39] ok [08:40] Yagisan: in the latter case, some dsps, despite their drivers' capabilities, provide no means for mmapping, so some apps (e.g., quake3) will refuse to run [08:41] thanks crimsun. I'll relay this on to the end user. (whish I could see the box myself, but it's in another country) [08:42] right, barring online troubleshooting, these are the most specific elements I can name for intel8x0. === EmxBA [n=chatzill@SE400.PPPoE-1399.sa.bih.net.ba] has joined #edubuntu [08:44] hi folks [08:44] you missed me a lot :( [08:44] welcome back === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu [08:47] hehe [08:47] thanks === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #edubuntu [08:47] wb cbx33 === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #edubuntu [08:52] juliux:hi! === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #edubuntu [08:56] crimsun, with 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' at 0,1 and 3, both with & without external mixer set [08:56] there was no sound [08:56] Yagisan: ok, then I'll need a pastebin of ``amixer'' [09:01] crimsun, http://rafb.net/paste/results/331LKG72.html [09:03] Yagisan: is (s)he using analog speakers or output to a digital receiver? [09:04] crimsun, he's using headphones. he tested the headphones on another box as he first suspected them [09:04] Yagisan: then (s)he needs to at least execute: amixer set 'IEC958' off && amixer set 'Duplicate Front' on && amixer set '3D Control - Switch' off === caravena [n=caravena@130-34-50.adsl.terra.cl] has joined #edubuntu [09:06] crimsun, they reported back "no luck with sound" [09:07] ok, please reset 'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA' to 0 [09:07] crimsun, thank you for helping [09:08] crimsun, they claim no sound [09:10] Yagisan: has sound never been audible for him? === bddebian [n=bdefrees@mail.ottens.com] has joined #edubuntu [09:12] crimsun, yes, but not in ubuntu (he installed dapper 2-3 days ago) and discovered his new audigy didn't work, and that the nforce2 also does not work [09:12] err, is his audigy still installed? [09:13] crimsun, yes, but no modules loaded [09:13] hi EmxBA [09:13] crimsun, no alsa driver for it apparently [09:13] hi [09:14] Yagisan: hmm, how new is it? [09:14] Yagisan: if it's still installed in the machine, ``lspci -v && lspci -nv'' would be useful [09:15] crimsun, sorry - its a Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi not audigy [09:16] ah, ok. Yeah, James only recently began committing support for that codec into hg. [09:16] crimsun, still want thoses ids ? [09:17] Yagisan: nah, no need. Let's start with a pristine alsa state. [09:18] Yagisan: he'll need to close whatever apps are using the sound device (probably by logging out and switching to a console, then logging in there), then unload snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec, then rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state, then reload snd_intel8x0, then re-execute invoke-rc.d alsa-utils start [09:18] crimsun, any further ideas ? [09:19] (sorry, I can only type so fast...) [09:19] sorry crimsun === RichEd-1 [n=richard@dsl-146-147-170.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #edubuntu [09:20] hmm. that will be beyond his skill at the moment === Yagisan converts crimsun's request into "new user" [09:22] crimsun, start in single user mode. rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.stat then run shutdown -r now ? [09:23] Yagisan: well, that would work, too [09:23] crimsun, good. as I said, very new user [09:29] (away for a bit, phone conference) [09:30] np, thanks for your help crimsun [09:46] crimsun, no joy [09:46] crimsun, I'm off to bed now. If you have any other ideas please message me [09:46] Yagisan: I would have been amazed if it had worked after that [09:47] (the goal being to restore to a known-sane state) [09:47] crimsun, anything else I should get him to try right now ? [09:48] Yagisan: just have him toggle 'External Amplifier' for now [09:48] if sound still isn't audible, I'll need the register dump from /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0+regs [09:49] (probably won't get around to inspecting the latter til tomorrow, though) [09:51] crimsun, cat works to get that register dump ? [09:52] Yagisan: yes [09:53] crimsun, I'll email it to you after I wake up (I expect it to be in my inbox by then) [09:54] Yagisan: ok, please tag the subject with [UBUNTU ALSA] [09:54] otherwise I'll likely miss it due to spam filters === JanisLee [n=JanisLee@201-25-141-4.ctame704.dsl.brasiltelecom.net.br] has left #edubuntu [] === mhz [n=mhz@moinmoin/fan/mhz] has joined #edubuntu [11:10] hi yo'all
