[11:00] <owner> Is anyone here able to assist me with sound issues?
[11:02] <knome> !ask | owner
[11:04] <owner> I have an issue with my sound card or whatever, After installing xubuntu it stopped working. I have dual boot of XP, but it doesn't work on XP. I'm guessing it didn't install my sound card at all... It worked before going to xubuntu, but after... Its gone. It gets kind of annoying, because I end up giving up for a week and then asking again. Nothing has helped so far.   So any links, command lines, etc will help. I will love the per
[11:04] <owner> son who assists on my fix, FOREVER <3
[11:09] <knome> owner, sounds like the sound levels are set on mute or something, and that makes it not work in win
[11:09] <owner> I have unmuted them.
[11:09] <owner> But
[11:09] <owner> is there another way to unmute them?
[11:10] <owner> I've done the physical stuff and clicking my sound buttons etc
[11:10] <owner> and when i click the "audio" icon next to my clock on the task panel
[11:10] <owner> it shows its unmuted.
[18:12] <craigwdy2k> I thought I just installed the AMD64  version of Xubuntu but apt-get upgrade keeps pulling in debs ending in i386...  What exactly is going on here...?
[18:13] <charlie-tca> If there is no equivalent 64bit package, it will use the 386 package instead.
[18:14] <charlie-tca> run "uname -a" in a terminal to verify, x86_64 is 64bit, 686 is 32bit
[18:15] <craigwdy2k> That's really weird it says i686 even though the ISO was mis-labeled as being AMD64...
[18:22] <charlie-tca> i686 is the 32bit installation
[18:23] <craigwdy2k> Well the ISO Image said it was AMD64...
[18:25] <charlie-tca> did you download it?
[18:26] <craigwdy2k> Yeah.
[18:26] <charlie-tca> which mirror?
[18:27] <craigwdy2k> I downloaded it via BitTorrrent actually...
[18:27] <charlie-tca> notify the site, they can verify it
[18:27] <charlie-tca> hmm, I don't know if that is possible with BitTorrent, though
[18:29] <craigwdy2k> Yeah: the ISO stated it was 64Bit: maybe the build system generated two identical ISOs: one of which was apparently misnamed...
[18:30] <charlie-tca> or a user mislabeled it and is feeding the torrent
[18:30] <craigwdy2k> Yeah: I'll bet that's probably it...
[18:31] <craigwdy2k> I thought it was an official Canonical Torrent file...  Maybe they host the Torrents too to prevent this from happening in the future...
[18:32] <craigwdy2k> they should host*
[18:33] <charlie-tca> torrent files are fed by the users that downloaded the file. The more feeds, the faster your download
[18:33] <craigwdy2k> What's even stranger is that on the server there was .jigdo file for only 32Bit version & not the 64Bit version...
[18:33] <charlie-tca> jigdo is different
[18:33] <craigwdy2k> was a .jigdo*
[18:34] <craigwdy2k> Yeah I know: I'm just wondering it the other .jigdo file failed to generate or something strange happened like that...
[18:34] <craigwdy2k> if the other*
[18:36] <charlie-tca> I only show .jigdo for the alternate images, both 32bit and 64bit have it
[18:37] <craigwdy2k> This is the newer Xubuntu 10.10 Beta 1: not 10.04...
[18:37] <charlie-tca> same - http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/10.10/beta/
[18:38] <charlie-tca> both jigdo files are there for alternate images
[18:39] <craigwdy2k> Oh yeah right: I wish they would generate .jigdo files for the Vanilla Xubuntu images too: I use Jigdo quite a bit for downloading Debian & Fedora Core ISOs myself personally...
[18:40] <charlie-tca> vanilla?
[18:40] <craigwdy2k> Full blown: i.e. not alternate desktop ISOs...
[18:41] <charlie-tca> desktop/livecd - Maybe it is not compatible with ubiquity and the GUI installer
[18:41] <craigwdy2k> Vanilla usually means something that is plain...
[18:42] <charlie-tca> yeah, that should be the alternate installer, with no pretty gui to use
[18:42] <craigwdy2k> Oh well for me Vanilla is the GUI version: I think the text-based installers are quite old & outdated personally...
[18:43] <craigwdy2k> They are still useful but just not what I
[18:43] <craigwdy2k>  am normally used to...
[18:46] <craigwdy2k> Debian was quite the wake-up call for me seeing as how it's all text based & all that...
[18:49] <craigwdy2k> My first distro was Caldera eDesktop 2.4 before they stopped making a distro...
[18:50] <charlie-tca> GUI's came a long time after the text based installers
[18:51] <craigwdy2k> Yeah: actually Caldera's distro was unique in that in started in text mode & then eventually chain-loaded a GUI based Installer...

[21:46] <DexterF> hi
[21:47] <DexterF> got xub 10.04 on a laptop that connects to the internet via an umts card. I'd like to share that inet connection with a network, so I hooked the free nic to the network's switch.
[21:48] <DexterF> then read up on this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing
[21:49] <DexterF> am stuck on the ipv4 tab tho since I dont have that method there. i confed the umts device instead of auto eth0 since eth0 is not the device making the internet connection but hso0
[21:49] <DexterF> pointers?
[22:05] <DexterF> reboot, brb
[22:32] <subspider> hello
[22:32] <subspider> how do i know if my grphic card is well installed
[22:32] <subspider> ??
[22:33] <subspider> hello Sysi
[23:42] <craigwdy2k> I keep trying to burn & boot off of the AMD64 Xubuntu ISO Images but they appear to be duds...: i.e. they won't boot this PC...
[23:44] <craigwdy2k> Would I be better off with PC/OS's AMD64 ISO Image...?
[23:48] <craigwdy2k> Actually there ISO appears to be a dual format one like Sidux's...  Which comes all zipped up just waiting to be decompressed...  Curiously it's based off of a slightly older release of Xubuntu...
[23:48] <craigwdy2k> their*
[23:49] <craigwdy2k> Or should I wait for them to update their ISO...?
[23:58] <craigwdy2k> Or maybe I might just go with the Debian Weekly AMD64 build of Testing that ships with XFCE + LXDE...  Any thoughts or recommendations?  I also read that the Linux Mint distro has an XFCE variant too...
