|---|---|---|
| metroid1 | i am attempting to install HDAPS - IBM Active Protection System Linux Driver from the instructions here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_10.10_%28Maverick%29_on_a_ThinkPad_T61#Hardware_Support_Details | 01:59 |
| metroid1 | but on step 2 i get this output: sudo modprobe tp-smapi | 01:59 |
| metroid1 | FATAL: Error inserting tp_smapi (/lib/modules/2.6.35-25-generic/updates/dkms/tp_smapi.ko): No such device or address | 01:59 |
| metroid1 | and i don't know much but i know that isn't good! | 02:00 |
| metroid1 | if anyone has any ideas about how i should proceed i would greatly appreciate them. | 02:02 |
| metroid1 | is there a way to easily monitor cpu temp from the desktop or panel? | 02:43 |
| metroid1 | i figured out a way to monitor my cpu/gpu temperature and my concerns were right. my computer is running way to hot. how do i adjust the fan settings (on a thinkpad t61)? | 04:37 |

| serhatu | Hi.. I need help on GRUB2 .. I nearly read everything on the net about GRUB2 , forums , wiki pages , etc but I still have problems.How do I get help here ? | 09:40 |
| Graet | usually, ask your question and see if someone that can help answers | 09:43 |
| TheSheep | !hi | 09:43 |
| ubottu | Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 09:43 |
| serhatu | Ok then ..I have xubuntu 10.10 and vectorlinux intsalled on hdd.The os-prober can see my vectorlinux by "sudo os-prober" but it is not listed on the grub menu , how can this happen ? | 09:45 |
| serhatu | I edit "40_custom" menu but the result did not change.. | 09:46 |
| serhatu | VL is on /dev/sda2 | 09:47 |
| serhatu | I changed 40_custom by adding lines as : | 09:47 |
| knome | serhatu, did you 'sudo update-grub' | 09:47 |
| serhatu | yep .. I did .. | 09:48 |
| serhatu | menuentry "VectorLinux 6.0" { | 09:49 |
| serhatu | set root=(hd0,2) | 09:49 |
| serhatu | linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.12 root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet splash | 09:49 |
| serhatu | } | 09:49 |
| Sysi | sda2 would be hd0,1 | 09:49 |
| serhatu | are you sure ? | 09:50 |
| serhatu | it is different from grub .. | 09:50 |
| serhatu | In grub2 the hdd partitions start from "1".. | 09:51 |
| serhatu | That's just what I read for days | 09:51 |
| serhatu | :D | 09:51 |
| Sysi | just put UUID :P | 09:51 |
| serhatu | ok.. let's try it.. | 09:51 |
| serhatu | nope it didnt work .. same results.. ( yes I updated by "sudo update-grub" ) | 09:54 |
| serhatu | "sudo os-prober" says : "/dev/sda2:Slackware Linux (Slackware 12.1.0):Slackware:linux" | 09:56 |
| tych0 | I have a problem when I try to encrypt my home folder | 10:09 |
| tych0 | THe information logo in the tray is open when i click it and click run this action nothing happens | 10:09 |
| tych0 | and when i do the command to get the passphrase in the terminal it works | 10:09 |
| tych0 | But the information icon is still there | 10:10 |

| Pen_island | can i have it back please? | 13:25 |
| bazhang | !sound | Pen_island | 13:26 |
| ubottu | Pen_island: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 13:26 |
| Pen_island | wowowowowo simples please | 13:26 |
| bazhang | Pen_island, please read those links | 13:26 |
| Pen_island | and whats an applet? | 13:26 |
| tych0 | Anyone uses Realtek? | 13:27 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting Pen_island | 13:28 |
| Pen_island | its complicated | 13:29 |
| Pen_island | make it simple please | 13:29 |
| yodog | !ops | 13:44 |
| tych0 | Anyone here knows how to install a Realtek HD audio driver? | 14:40 |
| tych0 | Im trying to get it to work but I dont know | 14:41 |
| charlie-tca | !sound | 14:42 |

| charlie-tca | I don't know if anything there helps at all, though | 14:42 |
| tych0 | I wish..... | 14:44 |
| charlie-tca | kind of a slow channel, but the audio experts hang out in #ubuntu-audio-help , which might be worth asking in also while waiting | 14:46 |
| tych0 | I have removed the oss and alsa drivers | 14:47 |
| tych0 | Because the microphone wouldnt work | 14:47 |
| tych0 | Now I dont have none | 14:47 |
| tych0 | I ahve installed alsa drivers but it wont open | 14:47 |
| tych0 | nothing happens when i write "alsamixer" in xterm | 14:47 |
| tych0 | Im trying to get the Realtek drivers from the site to work but it doesnt | 14:48 |
| charlie-tca | Is alsamixer installed? apt-cache policy alsamixer | 14:48 |
| gravitone | hi | 14:48 |
| charlie-tca | !hi | gravitone | 14:48 |
| ubottu | gravitone: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 14:48 |
| gravitone | Im having some trouble installing xubuntu on an old system | 14:49 |
| charlie-tca | Please ask your question all in one line. All of us are volunteers and will attempt to answer if we know. | 14:50 |
| gravitone | k63+@600mhz, 256mb sdram, gigabyte ga-5ax (aladdin V chipset). | 14:50 |
| gravitone | The installer fails on creating a partition table. | 14:50 |
| tych0 | charlie-tca: no | 14:51 |
| tych0 | it says its in the alsa-base package | 14:51 |
| tych0 | I have it installed | 14:51 |
| charlie-tca | tych0: then it can't run in terminal | 14:51 |
| gravitone | tried several different harddisk, dma mode, pio, manual disk geometry settings. | 14:51 |
| charlie-tca | gravitone: what is the error? | 14:51 |
| gravitone | using fdisk to create a partition table does not work, after creation the disk shows again as simply empty. | 14:51 |
| tych0 | When I do the realtek driver install it gives me some errors and then , I dont know what to do | 14:51 |
| charlie-tca | the disk will show empty until the install completes | 14:52 |
| charlie-tca | If you create the partition manually, you must then restart or unmount the partition for it to be usable | 14:52 |
| gravitone | Attempt to mount a filesystem with type ext3 ... at '/' failed is the installer error. | 14:53 |
| gravitone | gparted creates partitions, then shows the disk to be empty, even after reboot. however, using hirens boot cd, I see the partitions ARE there. :S | 14:54 |
| tych0 | What is the command to show what sndcard I have | 14:55 |
| charlie-tca | lspci | 14:55 |
| Sysi | gravitone: do you have anything to save on that disk? | 14:57 |
| gravitone | nope | 14:57 |
| gravitone | already tried low level format btw... | 14:57 |
| Sysi | new partition table? | 14:58 |
| gravitone | tried | 14:58 |
| charlie-tca | you specified / as a mount point? | 14:58 |
| Sysi | can you create partitions with the installer | 14:58 |
| gravitone | manually erased the complete bootsector+partition table several times now. | 14:58 |
| gravitone | sysi: yeah, but the reading back fails after gparted has presumably created the partitionts. | 14:59 |
| gravitone | the disk shows as blank | 14:59 |
| gravitone | hold on, I'll hook up the system next to this one, boot up, and check some things. | 14:59 |
| tych0 | Hey.... | 14:59 |
| tych0 | Does lspci -vv show the correct hardware output? | 15:00 |
| tych0 | If so then I must have thought I had the wrong soundcard for a long time | 15:00 |
| tych0 | Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 04) , I always thought I had Realtek ? | 15:00 |
| charlie-tca | maybe that is why it failed | 15:01 |
| tych0 | So how do I get the hda-intel driver working? | 15:01 |
| Sysi | do you have multiple sound devices? | 15:02 |
| tych0 | I have only one | 15:03 |
| Sysi | see everything unmuted from alsamixer and maybe try pavucontrol | 15:03 |
| tych0 | Right now, I have no soundcard or driver at alla according to the mixer in the tray | 15:03 |
| tych0 | I cant open alsamixer from terminal eve though i have alsa-base installed | 15:03 |
| tych0 | pavucontrol says, no sound devices exists | 15:03 |
| tych0 | Sysi: Any ideas? | 15:06 |
| tych0 | Please help me | 15:08 |
| tych0 | I will restart now after removign alsa | 15:08 |
| gravitone | ok | 15:12 |
| gravitone | installer is booting | 15:12 |
| tych0 | Now I have rebooted after removing alsa... | 15:13 |
| tych0 | Seems maybe I need OSS? | 15:14 |
| tych0 | lsvc -vv says I havea snd-hda-intel | 15:20 |
| tych0 | kernel | 15:20 |
| tych0 | When I install alsa from term | 15:35 |
| tych0 | the alsamixer wont start... | 15:35 |
| tych0 | What is the problem? | 15:35 |
| lighta | hey guys, is there a way to set a pid for a processus when launching him ? | 15:38 |
| lighta | let see | 15:39 |
| lighta | !pid | 15:39 |
| charlie-tca | I don't think you can decide the pid, but I might be wrong | 15:42 |
| lighta | a =( | 15:43 |
| lighta | but maybe you could give me advice | 15:44 |
| lighta | here my issue. I have two process with similar name | 15:44 |
| lighta | but I want to turn off and down the good one | 15:44 |
| charlie-tca | and you know the pid of the one you want off? | 15:46 |
| lighta | hmm, yeah well one is login-server and the other is login-server_sql | 15:47 |
| lighta | that my stop command | 15:47 |
| lighta | 'stop') | 15:47 |
| lighta | ps ax | grep -E "${L_SRV}|${C_SRV}|${M_SRV}" | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kill | 15:47 |
| lighta | but it kill both :( | 15:48 |
| * charlie-tca just got lost. He doesn't know how to do that stuff | 15:48 | |
| lighta | ah yeah maybe I should check on bash =) sorry | 15:49 |
| charlie-tca | no problem | 15:49 |
| charlie-tca | Wish I did know how, though | 15:49 |
| lighta | you didn't do any bash script ? | 15:49 |
| charlie-tca | what if one variable was used for each name, and you grep for the one to kill? | 15:49 |
| Sysi | if you can kill them by name, use killall | 15:49 |
| Sysi | pkill kills by part of name, killall just entire name | 15:50 |
| charlie-tca | I have tried for three years to learn bash, and failed nicely at it | 15:50 |
| lighta | ah ok | 15:50 |
| lighta | nice I'd try | 15:50 |
| lighta | didn't know this command and with this name I tought would be more kill than just a process | 15:51 |
| lighta | charlie-tca, you idea is what it is in fach ${L_SRV} is define previously as login-serv here =) | 15:52 |
| lighta | so let see Sysi solution | 15:52 |
| charlie-tca | yeah. But you also looked for C_SRV and M_SRV, which might be picking up the other one? | 15:53 |
| charlie-tca | try Sysi 's idea. He knows these things better than me | 15:53 |
| Sysi | i don't really know scripting actually.. | 15:54 |
| lighta | yeah but no it's ok for this part charlie-tca, Sysi solution is good | 15:55 |
| michelk | Where do I get help if do-release-update fails? 10.04.02 -> 10.10 | 15:57 |
| charlie-tca | depends on what the fail is | 15:58 |
| michelk | First there is a WARNING: Failed to read mirror file; by calculating changes it says E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be | 16:02 |
| michelk | caused by held packages. | 16:02 |
| charlie-tca | so, first, the changes you made to /etc/apt/sources.list did something wrong | 16:03 |
| charlie-tca | second, you have packages you pinned/held and it can't upgrade them | 16:03 |
| michelk | Thanks, I look for a backup sources.list | 16:05 |
| gravitone | ok | 16:06 |
| gravitone | I booted my k6 system with a livecd now, harddisk is /dev/sda it shows diskabeltype as unrecognized. | 16:07 |
| gravitone | Im using gparted. Trying to create a new partition table gives me no errors, but drops me right back and the disk still registers as blank. | 16:07 |
| Sysi | old disk? | 16:08 |
| gravitone | This is a known working HDD btw, just in case someone questions that. | 16:08 |
| gravitone | 20gb ATA/33 drive by maxtor | 16:08 |
| gravitone | gparted recognizes it as such... | 16:08 |
| michelk | How could I verify my sources.list? | 16:09 |
| gravitone | I can fire up the console, and do some investigating, but I need some pointers about where to start troubleshooting this problem. | 16:09 |
| gravitone | sysi: is there some bug/missing feature with old disks that I should be aware off? | 16:10 |
| charlie-tca | michelk: you could copy from a desktop cd booted to the live desktop | 16:10 |
| Sysi | no, just thought that broken-possibility | 16:10 |
| gravitone | Is there an easy way to view a hex dump of the bootsector for example? | 16:11 |
| gravitone | I have a feeling read commands are not working (correctly) for some reason | 16:11 |
| charlie-tca | Normally, do-release-update is only recommended for servers. You should read the release notes for 10.10 - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/MaverickMeerkat/Final | 16:12 |
| gravitone | maybe incorrect drive geometry | 16:12 |
| michelk | I already tried with update-manager; same problem | 16:14 |
| charlie-tca | michelk: removed the ppa sources by commenting them out? | 16:16 |
| charlie-tca | also check in /etc/apt/sources.d/ for any added items | 16:16 |
| charlie-tca | oops | 16:17 |
| charlie-tca | check in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ for added lists | 16:17 |
| charlie-tca | michelk: and if all else fails, file a bug using ubuntu-bug update-manager in a terminal, please | 16:18 |
| charlie-tca | and attach your /etc/apt/sources.list as a separate file to the bug report, please | 16:19 |
| michelk | I used the sources.list.save and in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ all entries are commented out | 16:27 |
| michelk | Couldn't I verify my sources list with aptitude? | 16:27 |
| gravitone | ok... | 16:29 |
| gravitone | this is getting me nowhere, fdisk complains that there is no partition table. | 16:30 |
| gravitone | I create a primary partition, use w to write the partition table, I can hear the drive going.. fdisk exits, and nothing happend. | 16:30 |
| gravitone | When I start fdisk again, it complains about the same problem. no partition table. | 16:31 |
| charlie-tca | michelk: what does sudo apt-get update give you? | 16:32 |
| michelk | Hit http:... Reading package lists... Done But nothing more; bit irritating | 16:37 |
| charlie-tca | they should be valid, then. | 16:38 |
| charlie-tca | Don't know what else to try. Can you file a bug, please | 16:39 |
| gravitone | ok | 16:39 |
| michelk | Ok, thank you | 16:39 |
| gravitone | Im running dd /dev/zero /dev/sda to completely erase the drive.. | 16:39 |
| gravitone | I can hear the disk being hard at work, so its doing something... | 16:39 |
| === dude_ is now known as CloseYetFar | ||
| gravitone | ok, one step further | 17:02 |
| gravitone | kernel reports incorrect disk geometry | 17:02 |
| gravitone | I forced sfdisk to use the right geometry, but it's still giving errors. | 17:03 |
| gravitone | anyone experience with disk geometry issues? | 17:03 |
| gravitone | noone has any clue about what I should try to fix my hdd issues? | 17:33 |
| skrite | gravitone, what were there results of your zero fill ? | 17:35 |
| gravitone | said action complete | 17:40 |
| gravitone | on startin fdisk, and reading the raw partition table from disk, it still had "content" | 17:40 |
| gravitone | although completely incorrect | 17:41 |
| gravitone | tried two other IDE disks in the meantime, same results. | 17:41 |
| gravitone | its rediculous, its as if write actions done actually take place. | 17:43 |
| gravitone | *dont | 17:43 |
| gravitone | But I can hear the disk churning away, so it is receiving commands... | 17:43 |
| gravitone | and im sure that the hardware is good. windows98 installs just fine, and hirens boot cd tools tell me all is good. | 17:44 |
| gravitone | is there a direct command to dump say the first 100 bytes of /dev/sda onto the screen? | 17:45 |
| gravitone | ok, I just fetched another 10gb drive, and replaced the 80pin ribbon cable just to be sure... | 17:55 |
| Sysi | i do remember having problems with IDE disk | 17:56 |
| gravitone | maybe its the IDE controller or driver thats causing the problem... | 17:58 |
| gravitone | damn | 18:20 |
| gravitone | which logs should I check for potential problems? | 18:20 |
| charlie-tca | /var/log/installer | 18:21 |
| gravitone | im running a livecd btw | 18:21 |
| charlie-tca | yeah, I don't think there will be a partition log yet, but there should be an installer | 18:22 |
| charlie-tca | Otherwise, you look in /var/log/dmesg and see if there is anything useful | 18:23 |
| gravitone | hmm | 18:32 |
| gravitone | "Cant derive routing for PCI int A" shows up | 18:33 |
| gravitone | for the IDE controller | 18:33 |
| gravitone | thats not good is it? | 18:39 |
| charlie-tca | doesn't sound good to me, but I am not an expert in these things, either. | 18:41 |
| charlie-tca | That actually sounds scary. Did you check if the bios somehow corrupted and needs to reset / turn on the ide controllers, by chance? | 18:42 |
| charlie-tca | well, wait | 18:42 |
| charlie-tca | PCI int A might not be anything, but I would still check the bios for the ide controllers, and reset it just in case. Is that a compaq? | 18:43 |
| gravitone | nope | 18:48 |
| gravitone | custom box | 18:48 |
| gravitone | using a gigabyte ga-5ax rev 4.1 board | 18:48 |
| gravitone | checked the bios, settings are fine. | 18:48 |
| gravitone | both controllers are ok, dma and burst mode are enabled. | 18:48 |
| tych0 | I am trying to install alsa again after I installed it | 18:50 |
| tych0 | But it wont work | 18:51 |
| tych0 | When i write "alsamixer" it doesnt show up | 18:51 |
| gravitone | bleh | 18:58 |
| gravitone | Still no progress. And nothing in the logs indicating that anything is going wrong. | 18:58 |
| gravitone | I just removed all the PCI/ISA cards from the board and trying again. | 18:59 |
| gravitone | disabled DPMI, reset the IRQ mapping, etc. | 18:59 |
| charlie-tca | My old compaq won't allow the hard drive change without resetting the cmos with the shorting clip | 19:02 |
| gravitone | PIO mode liveCD booting is not fun.. | 19:02 |
| gravitone | hmm | 19:02 |
| gravitone | I'll try that if this doesnt work... | 19:02 |
| gravitone | although I doubt a bios from 2000 would have such a crappy bug | 19:03 |
| charlie-tca | Yeah, that is almost new ;-) | 19:03 |
| gravitone | well... | 19:11 |
| gravitone | It seems that nothing has worked so far :S | 19:11 |
| connecteduser | yo, in pidgin, what does the light blue 'dot' next to the contact icon mean? | 19:12 |
| mark76 | Light blue dot? | 19:20 |
| gravitone | wow | 19:24 |
| gravitone | the system no longer boots the liveCD :S | 19:24 |
| charlie-tca | connecteduser: which user name is it next to? | 19:24 |
| gravitone | self reboots upon reaching the decompression sequence.. | 19:24 |
| charlie-tca | gravitone: bad cd | 19:25 |
| gravitone | charlie-tca: I doubt it, I just made this sucker | 19:26 |
| charlie-tca | hm, that what it is here when it does that. somedays it takes me three or four to take a good burn | 19:27 |
| gravitone | Not to mention the fact that I've rebooted with it at least 20 times over the last few hours and it hasnt left the drive.. | 19:27 |
| charlie-tca | shut down completely and start over. | 19:28 |
| connecteduser | charlie-tca: why did you want to know thaT? | 19:35 |
| connecteduser | this stuff happens sometimes. it's a light blue 'dot', or disc, left of the contact's image/pic (both in client's GUI and chat window) | 19:36 |
| charlie-tca | to answer your question | 19:36 |
| connecteduser | why do you need the username of the contact to answer that, though? | 19:37 |
| charlie-tca | sometimes it means that nick has voice, sometimes it is an operator, sometimes it is something else | 19:37 |
| connecteduser | weird | 19:37 |
| connecteduser | what is voice on msn? | 19:37 |
| connecteduser | oh yea btw i didnt mention, this is with msn | 19:38 |
| charlie-tca | I have no idea what voice on msn is. I do not use it | 19:38 |
| tych0 | I have a blue "!" telling me how to decrypt my hd | 19:39 |
| tych0 | But... The button "run this action now" dont work | 19:39 |
| tych0 | So i did it in the terminal and got a passphrase. | 19:39 |
| tych0 | Now the "!" wont go away. | 19:39 |
| tych0 | What do I do ? | 19:39 |
| charlie-tca | ignore it | 19:39 |
| tych0 | Id like to remove it | 19:40 |
| charlie-tca | usually goes away with a shutdown / restart | 19:40 |
| tych0 | It doesnt | 19:40 |
| tych0 | I dont know what I should do | 19:40 |
| tych0 | Maybe the xterm command didnt work | 19:40 |
| tych0 | ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase i did that, got a passphrase | 19:41 |
| tych0 | When i press "run this now" nothing happens | 19:41 |
| connecteduser | you have an encrypted HD? | 19:43 |
| gravitone | weird | 19:44 |
| gravitone | ubuntu live CD still boots fine... | 19:44 |
| gravitone | :S | 19:44 |
| gravitone | the annying thing is that I ran out of cd-r's | 19:45 |
| gravitone | and this mobo doesnt support usb boot | 19:45 |
| tych0 | connecteduser: You tell me... | 19:47 |
| tych0 | I chose it in the install | 19:47 |
| charlie-tca | gravitone: if the cd boots, it should work, but you could run the cd integrity check, too | 19:50 |
| gravitone | just dropped in the ubuntu 10.04 disk, that still boots | 19:53 |
| gravitone | although still the same partitioning errors | 19:53 |
| gravitone | I cannot create partitions, format, etc. | 19:53 |
| tych0 | Gah... | 19:54 |
| gravitone | It's as though writing to the disk doesnt take place | 19:54 |
| tych0 | Noone has any idea? | 19:54 |
| gravitone | I blame the crappy ALI IDE controller + kernel bugs. | 19:55 |
| gravitone | sigh... | 19:55 |
| charlie-tca | Graet: I am out of ideas now, but you might check in #ubuntu | 19:55 |
| gravitone | I'm not sure I should even bother filing a bug report. | 19:55 |
| charlie-tca | I don't really know at this point. It sounds like hardware, much as I hate to say it. | 19:56 |
| tych0 | I try to reinstall alsa | 19:57 |
| tych0 | but it doesnt show up in the folder where it should be | 19:57 |
| tych0 | I dont know what to do | 19:58 |
| tych0 | Is this something to do with xubuntu... ? | 19:58 |
| gravitone | there is a command switch you can use to FORCE the package manager to install it completely, ignoring what already there and forcing overwrite. | 19:58 |
| gravitone | I'm not sure what it was though... | 19:59 |
| tych0 | i do it via apt-get | 19:59 |
| tych0 | the only installer that exist is a .tar.gz that doesnt seem to work either. | 20:00 |
| knome | installer for what? | 20:00 |
| gravitone | .. | 20:00 |
| tych0 | Or no, wait, forget it. It doesnt. | 20:00 |
| tych0 | snd-hda-intel according to the kernel | 20:00 |
| knome | tych0, what's the problem? | 20:00 |
| tych0 | But kinda hard gettign that to work when alsa doesnt even work | 20:00 |
| tych0 | I type in alsamixer in term | 20:01 |
| tych0 | and nothing comes up | 20:01 |
| knome | right | 20:01 |
| tych0 | after i reinstalled it trying to get my mic working | 20:01 |
| tych0 | it says, file and dir doesnt exist even tho i installed alsa-base and alsa-utils in the term | 20:01 |
| knome | did you reinstall it from the repo, or some other package? | 20:01 |
| tych0 | repo | 20:01 |
| tych0 | apt-get | 20:01 |
| knome | okay | 20:01 |
| knome | just a sec, i'll check something | 20:02 |

| tych0 | Is what its says in dmesg | 20:02 |
| tych0 | I dont know if that makes any sense | 20:02 |
| knome | please use pastebin for multiline pastes | 20:03 |
| tych0 | sorry | 20:03 |
| knome | i understand by that that there is something wrong in your alsa config | 20:03 |
| knome | did you purge and reinstall alsa-utils ? | 20:04 |
| tych0 | It also doesnt exist in the folder | 20:04 |
| tych0 | It is installed | 20:04 |
| tych0 | Yes | 20:04 |
| tych0 | I reinstalled it | 20:04 |
| knome | but when you reinstalled, did you *purge* it? | 20:04 |
| tych0 | How do you mean | 20:05 |
| knome | tych0, sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-utils | 20:05 |
| knome | that removes all the config files | 20:05 |
| knome | and you get a clean install after that | 20:05 |
| tych0 | ok do i install it again then | 20:05 |
| tych0 | alright | 20:05 |
| knome | yes | 20:05 |
| knome | that would be worth trying at least | 20:05 |
| tych0 | should I restart | 20:05 |
| knome | no reason to do that :) | 20:06 |
| tych0 | grep: /proc/asound/cards: No such file or directory | 20:06 |
| tych0 | is what it said in the last line | 20:06 |
| knome | on install, or purge remove? | 20:06 |
| tych0 | install | 20:06 |
| knome | yeah, the alsa driver is probably not recognised... | 20:07 |
| knome | did you need some specific driver? | 20:08 |
| knome | you could actually just try to purge remove alsa-base as well | 20:09 |
| knome | and then reinstall | 20:09 |
| tych0 | Hmmm | 20:09 |
| tych0 | Im trying to .configure the alsa driver from their site I will see if it does anything | 20:10 |
| knome | okay | 20:10 |
| tych0 | Nothing.... | 20:25 |
| r3d2 | hey you guys.....i just migrated to xubuntu from ubuntu and i noticed a different sound manager...i want to use ubuntus sound manager since it lets me boost the volume up over 100% with the alsa sound driver.....not only that but with ubuntus controls, you can boost your mic to pick up even the most inaudible sounds due to its ability to control what decible range to register | 20:57 |
| r3d2 | anyone know how i can acomplish this? | 20:57 |
| knome | r3d2, try pavucontrol | 21:05 |
| charlie-tca | use gnome? | 21:05 |
| knome | charlie-tca, awwwh | 21:06 |
| r3d2 | oh ok | 21:06 |
| r3d2 | thanks | 21:06 |
| charlie-tca | I know, I know. sorry | 21:06 |
