kylemhmm, i didn't even know there was one. if it's usbvideo it might work out of the box with usbvideo05:06
mjg59Yeah, google suggests it's uvc-compliant05:08
mjg59So it /ought/ to Just Work if you have linux-ubuntu-modules installed05:08

kousotukylem: works for me too, but then if refuses to connect untill I manually conect to the network05:12
kylemarooni, no, we're just missing meta packages, anyway, you probably have it installed already if you have linux-generic installed.05:12
aroonikylem, i do have linux-generic... but when i go to webcam testing sites.... it doesnt show up ;(05:13
kousotukylem: any dea what package I'd need for realtek ALC83?05:19
kousotuidea*05:19
crimsunkousotu: presuming you're referring to HDA [ALCx83] , you shouldn't need anything above and beyond linux-image-2.6.22-10-generic and linux-ubuntu-module-2.6.22-10-generic [but the latter isn't even relevant there] 05:50
crimsunerr, linux-ubuntu-modules-, even05:50
kousotucrimsun: well, the updates kiled my sound05:50
kousotulol05:50
crimsuncheck and make sure you didn't get a fubar upgrade05:50
crimsunif `modinfo snd-hda-intel` doesn't return a bunch of info, then purge and reinstall linux-image-`uname -r`05:51
kylemsnd-hda-intel is in lum atm.05:51

kousotuI installed litle on te os, it is installedbe default?05:53
kousotuby*05:53
kousotuI am a linux noob, just so as you know05:53
kylemdunno why it would be broken, it's running the same code that's in linux-source-2.6.22 barring one line of patch.05:53
kousotukylem: it worked, untill I updated05:54
kousotuso on of the 2 patches of pdates broke it05:55
kousotuupdates*05:55
kousotubatches*05:55
kylemwhich version did it work in?05:55
kousotu?05:56
kousotuit worked in "factory default" 4 and 505:56
crimsunreading backscroll, it doesn't seem like the driver should have anything to do with it.05:56
kousotubut the moment I updated it died05:56
kousotuoh.05:57
kylem"factory default"?05:57
kousotuand it worked ok in Tribe 4 alpha05:57
kousotuI knew you were gona ask me that05:57
kousotulol05:57
crimsunI notice that ben asked him to run asoundconf set-default-card, but the parameter that was passed seems incorrect05:57
kousotufrom cd to hd, no mods05:57
crimsunkousotu: does `aplay -Dplughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav` play audibly?05:58
kousotuno05:58
crimsunis there an error, or does it appear to play inaudibly?05:58

kousotuI checked with my old pc speakers in as headphones, it does play, but not through the laptp speakers05:59

mjg59Does it then work?06:22
kousotuwithout sound06:23
kousotulol06:23
kousotuand fyi, vlc has sound now, todem still doesn't06:25
kousotusame file06:25
mjg59In any case, not a kernel issue06:25
kousotuwell, didn't know who to reportthat to, that's why I asked06:26
kousotuso the lum update should fix the sound completely?06:26
mjg59It's a known issue06:26
mjg59You not switching your speakers off in the mixer should fix the sound completely06:26
kousotuk06:26
kousotuI have never turned the off06:27
kousotuI turn them down, but not of06:27
kousotuof*06:27
mjg59The setting didn't change on its own06:27
kousotu...06:27
kousotuit defaulted at that06:27
kousotublease on't sit here nd accuse my of being dumb06:28
mjg59No, if it defaulted to that it wouldn't have worked when you booted the CD06:28
kousotuI'm not using a CD06:28
kousotuI'm using an MP306:28
mjg59You said that it worked when you used the CD06:28
kousotuok, misscommuncation06:28
kousotuI meant the liv CD06:28
kousotulive*06:28
mjg59Yes06:28
mjg59If the sound worked then, then the defaults worked06:29
kousoturight06:29
mjg59Therefore it didn't default to not working06:29
mjg59Therefore you changed it by accident at some stage06:30
kousotunope06:30
mjg59Yes.06:30
kousotulet me xplain06:30
=== mjg59 goes to bed
kousotuI used the MP3 on the live CD, the sound was fine. when I installed T5, it was fine untill I updated06:30
kousotuI don't know what did it, but something, NOT ME, shut them off06:31
kousotuand  didn't touch the settings06:31
crimsunit's worth noting that sound state (e.g., mixer levels) are stored separately in a file06:32
kousotu?06:32
kousotumaybe the update messed with it?06:32
kousotuit's possible06:32
crimsunwhat he's alluding to is the fact that hardware-wise, your sound is fine, and with the next l-u-m update, it should be completely fixed (i.e., not having to fiddle with mixer levels to achieve the speakers/hp)06:33
kousotusomehow I have "surround" sound06:33
kousotugood, no more troubles (hopefuly)06:33
kousotuwill the sound buttons onmy laptop be able to control the volume then too?06:33
kousotubecause it cannot right now06:34
kousotuI haveto manually adjust them06:34
crimsunyou should be able to do that (i.e., configure that)06:34
kousotuhow?06:35
crimsunin the menu, System> Preferences> Sound06:35
kousotudoesn't look like it06:35
crimsunin the left-most (default) tab, "Devices", look at the bottom "Default Mixer Tracks"06:35
kousotuyea06:36
kousotuI see it. that what the buttons on the laptop controls?06:36
crimsunin all cases that I know of, yes, that can be configured 06:36
kousotuyep, tht works now too06:37
kousotuyou guys are good06:37
kousotucan you humor this question?: is there any reason that a Stereo speaker would all of a sudden go surround?06:39
