| rojo | on the ubuntu wiki, the template for adding a laptop, in the System Info section, there's a comment reading, "Put the output of the following commands here." There are no commands that follow. What commands give system-manufacturer, system-product-name, and system-version? | 16:03 |
| rojo | $this->hasFlavr() ? $nom->nom('nom') : $want->doNot() | 16:08 |
| rojo | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/AcerAspire4520 is what I'm working on. If you notice any other problems with it, let me know. | 16:10 |
| rojo | I haven't researched bug submissions yet. | 16:11 |
| rojo | are you guys canonical employees, or just bored geeks? | 18:51 |
| maro | Hello guys | 21:18 |
| maro | need some help with sound problems on my laptop | 21:18 |
| linuxguy6 | does the sound card even show up in hardware testing? | 21:19 |
| maro | I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-134 | 21:19 |
| maro | Yes it does.... | 21:19 |
| maro | In fact I have sound when I plug in my headphones | 21:19 |
| maro | the problem is that the speakers are not working! | 21:20 |
| linuxguy6 | Ok, try right-clicking the little volume icon and clicking "Volume Control" | 21:20 |
| maro | ok | 21:21 |
| linuxguy6 | if the PCM volume is all the way down, that could possibly be your problem | 21:21 |
| maro | it's all the way up! | 21:21 |
| maro | actualy I have all the controls all the way up | 21:22 |
| linuxguy6 | ok, what programs do you have sound problems with? | 21:24 |
| maro | it is not a specific program.... | 21:24 |
| maro | it is just that I can get sound on my headphones through the jack in front of the laptop | 21:25 |
| maro | But the speakers are not working! | 21:25 |
| maro | The laptop speakers are dead! | 21:25 |
| maro | odd isn't it? | 21:25 |
| linuxguy6 | yeah, had that happen with my Inspiron | 21:26 |
| linuxguy6 | but it truned out to be the PCM volume control | 21:26 |
| maro | Unfortunately it is not the case with me!! | 21:26 |
| linuxguy6 | so do you know if the speakers work with Windows or another Linux distro? | 21:27 |
| maro | it seems that the chanell controling the Laptops Speakers ... something wrong with it! | 21:27 |
| maro | On the other hand the chanel controling the jack for the headphones is working fine! | 21:27 |
| linuxguy6 | hmm... | 21:28 |
| maro | They worked with Windows | 21:28 |
| linuxguy6 | do any other sound cards show up in Volume Control when you hit File: Change Device? | 21:29 |
| maro | I tried Debian but nothing worked at all as far as the sound was cencerned! | 21:29 |
| maro | concerned... | 21:29 |
| maro | The trouble is that the laptop belongs to a friend and I was speaking to him so enthousiastic about Ubuntu... | 21:30 |
| maro | I actualy convinced him to change to Linux... | 21:30 |
| linuxguy6 | congrats | 21:31 |
| linuxguy6 | one (rapidly growing) possibility is that there is not a linux driver for the speakers (but there is one for the headphones | 21:31 |
| maro | However this problem came up and disturbs him a bit! | 21:31 |
| maro | The version I have is 8.04 LTS | 21:32 |
| maro | with all the updates | 21:32 |
| linuxguy6 | yeah, same here | 21:32 |
| maro | I started with installation of 7.04 and it was the other way around!!! | 21:33 |
| maro | With the update I have this result!!! :-) | 21:33 |
| linuxguy6 | I wonder if there is a restricted driver for 8.04 LTS | 21:33 |
| maro | I think it must be a setting or a switch somewhere inside the alsa-base file !!! | 21:34 |
| linuxguy6 | ok, so experimenting with Volume Control... | 21:34 |
| maro | But I do not dare to touch anything in there unless there is someone who know exactly what I should do! | 21:35 |
| linuxguy6 | Click edit:Preferences and check everything | 21:35 |
| linuxguy6 | then see if the prob is there | 21:35 |
| maro | You mean to right click on the volume control and go preferences? | 21:36 |
| linuxguy6 | right click on volume control, then go to the "Edit" menu, then click Preferences | 21:37 |
| maro | Hold it I have to translate that into Greek!! | 21:38 |
| maro | I'm there | 21:39 |
| maro | I hve ticked on everything! | 21:39 |
| linuxguy6 | check every single little thing... | 21:39 |
| maro | I had done it already ...... | 21:40 |
| linuxguy6 | i think i sent my message at the same time as yours | 21:40 |
| linuxguy6 | too bad there is no way to prot drivers from one version to the other | 21:41 |
| maro | I have been doing that before I get on the ubuntu-laptp chanel | 21:41 |
| maro | Yeah... right! | 21:42 |
| maro | If I had the combination of the 7.04 and the 8.04 together then the problem would be solved :-) | 21:42 |
| maro | Anyway ... Thnk you very much for your efforts ... | 21:44 |
| maro | In case you cross someone who can help I will be in for a while | 21:44 |
| maro | Otherwise tomorrow is another day!!! :-))) | 21:44 |
| linuxguy6 | your welcome | 21:45 |
| linuxguy6 | you might want to log onto #ubuntu and shout out there... | 21:47 |
| maro | Thats a very good idea! | 21:47 |
| maro | I saw that there are many on that chanel! | 21:47 |
| maro | Thnks linuxguy6 ..... | 21:48 |
| linuxguy6 | theres a lot of traffic, and it might take a while, but there's likely to be SOMEONE who can fix it! | 21:48 |
| maro | May our paths cross again!!!! | 21:48 |
| maro | Bye for now! | 21:48 |
| linuxguy6 | goodbye! | 21:49 |
