ChinnoDogGotta clear my work for the morning so I can hit the local coffee shop15:19
ChinnoDogmm, chai latte16:31
knightzeroSounds like a good start to the morning, ChinnoDog.16:31
ChinnoDogYes. Got a long john too. There is a coffee shop up the road I like.16:33
ChinnoDogI can only go when I am working from home though.16:34
jrmyany of you know how to make the computer select a different audio card?16:58
jrmyive got my onboard and a soundcard i just put in.. i also reran alsaconfig or whatever the actual command is16:58
jrmybut i can only get sound from my onboard.. i guess im dumb and didnt realise you cant actually select the sound card in alsamixere16:59
jrmy-e16:59
andrewhrm16:59
knightzeroSound preferences>hardware to confirm that both are detected, then I set my output via the output tab in the same window.16:59
TheEvilPhoenixjrmy:  out of curiosity, what's the sound card you just put in?16:59
jrmywhere is sound preferences?17:00
jrmyits a sb live card or something17:00
TheEvilPhoenixsoundblaster?17:00
jrmyive used it before17:00
jrmyyeah17:00
jrmyshould be soundblaster17:00
knightzeroI'm going by gnome here, but i click the audio icon on the toolbar17:00
knightzeroand sound preferences is at the bottom of the dropdown.17:00
jrmyyeah ive got an xfce gui17:00
TheEvilPhoenixjrmy:  System > Administration > Hardware Drivers (10.04)17:00
TheEvilPhoenixoooh17:00
TheEvilPhoenixxfce17:00
TheEvilPhoenixi wonder where I put my 10.10 image...17:01
jrmysorry should mention that17:01
TheEvilPhoenixno no its fine17:01
jrmyoh and i have 10.0417:01
TheEvilPhoenixi have a vbox'd xfce image here somewhere...17:01
jrmyseeing as 10.10 wouldnt work on this17:01
* TheEvilPhoenix runs in his terminal 'locate xubuntu'17:01
TheEvilPhoenixoh... that's unsettling17:01
TheEvilPhoenixit seems my system is purging files without my knowledge...17:02
* TheEvilPhoenix redownloads a 10.04 xubuntu image17:02
jrmyi suppose i could record audio with my onboard.. but i dont know if it'll work well enough17:02
jrmyand i want at least 48khz17:03
knightzerojrmy: do you have gnome on the sytem at all - if so, you might be able to run gnome-sound-properties from the CLI.17:03
jrmywhich the sb card can do17:03
jrmyCLI?17:03
TheEvilPhoenixcommand line17:03
TheEvilPhoenixaka17:03
TheEvilPhoenixTERMINAL17:03
TheEvilPhoenixwhoops caps17:03
jrmyoh..17:03
jrmynever heard it as cli bnefore17:03
knightzeroThat's just me being too lazy to type words. :)  Terminal is what I meant there.17:04
jrmynope i think the only gnome programs i have are the system monitor and maybe a image viewer17:04
jrmyi may have installed another but its been awhile since ive used this computer17:05
jrmy.. wish i had more ram..17:06
jrmy128MB does not cut it17:06
jrmydont think i have enough to upgrade right now either17:06
jrmyat least i thought a 512 stick was liek $5017:06
jrmyi guess in some ways i'd rather use ubuntu seeing as i liek how it runs in comparison to xubuntu17:08
jrmybut obviously cant run it well enough on this computer17:09
knightzerojrmy: what kind of memory are you looking for?  If its DDR you need, I might have a spare 128/256 stick - not much of an upgrade, but I'm willing to part with it for free.17:09
jrmyumm sd pc 133 i think it is17:10
jrmyi believe the first sd ram17:10
jrmydunno never looked into it that much17:10
knightzeronotebook or desktop?  I might have some of that on hand as well.17:10
jrmymy computer is kinda old17:10
jrmydesktop17:10
jrmyi woudl of said the pin amount but i dont remember the number17:11
knightzeroI'll put in a reminder to check my memory stash when I get home.  I might be able to help you out with a small memory boost at least.17:11
jrmyok cool.. yeah i had more then 128 but i found out that one of the sticks had errors which was causing the computer to run improperly17:12
jrmywas probably a 25617:12
jrmywhich sucks.. lol17:12
jrmyyeah i think ive had 2 256 sticks go bad on me17:13
jrmyweird17:13
jrmyso i guess i could install gnome sound properties17:14
jrmyunless maybe theres a better solution to my problem17:14
knightzeroBefore you do that, try running xfce4-mixer from the terminal17:14
knightzeroI'm grasping at straws here, but it's worth a shot.17:15
jrmyit was actually xfce4-mixer17:16
jrmybut yeH it worked17:16
jrmynow to see if it switched my soundcard17:17
ChinnoDogPC133? Your computer must be prehistoric.17:17
jrmypen3 @ 900mhz17:17
jrmyhmm still not working.. sound is still coming out of my onboard17:19
jrmyChinnoDog: i'd love to upgrade.. just comnputers are to expensive.. i actually found this one on the street to be thrown out17:21
jrmyhad some spyware and viruses so i reinstalled the OS17:21
ChinnoDogaww, you rescued a homeless computer17:21
jrmywell its better then my old desktop17:22
jrmyi still liek finding free computers17:22
jrmyand until i could get $1k i'll take just about anything17:23
knightzeroMy intro to open source came the same way, thanks to an old Pentium I found next to a dumpster.  Homeless computers are fun to resurrect.17:23
jrmybesides its fun building a computer17:23
jrmyagreed17:23
jrmyanother channel said i could rmmod the onboard module.. but i dont know if i'd want to do that17:24
jrmythey stopped helping though17:24
jrmythats why im talking in this one17:25
knightzeroYou know, I just thought of something - if your secondary card isn't functioning, there's a possibility that its a hardware limitation.17:25
knightzeroI know my old PIII laptop had a USB 1.1 port - my logitech USB headset detected, but wouldn't function no matter what I did.17:26
jrmywell that would only be the case because of limited ram17:26
jrmyive used this card before i removed the stick17:26
knightzeroHmm.  That theory is out the window, then.17:27
jrmyi only had to remove it because i thought it was causing problems..17:27
jrmyi think it was working when i reinstalled xubuntu 10.04 but after idk now17:29
jrmy-after17:29
jrmysuppose i can try recording with my onboard then17:30
knightzeroThat might be your best best if switching between isn't working - I'm stumped on why that would stop working suddenly, though.17:31
jrmywell thanks anyways17:31
jrmyi'll be back some other time17:32
Irishmanlukeany life fans around?18:07
ChinnoDogI like to live18:08
Irishmanlukegame of life18:08
ChinnoDogYou didn't say that18:08
Irishmanlukewell I'm saying it now18:08

PennBotTitle: pastebin - Untitled - post number 2048322 (at pastebin.ca)18:14
TheEvilPhoenixany of you know if its possible to install XFCE desktop alongside Gnome desktop without breaking one or the other?19:14
andrewYes it is19:19
andrewYou select which you want to log into at the login screen19:19
jedijf@later tell jrmy disable onboard audio in *bios*19:23
PennBotjedijf: The operation succeeded.19:23
andrewsounds like a workaround19:24
jedijfno, a work around is removing the module....this way the module never loads, nothing to choose, assuming the plug in is recognized/works19:25
andrewNo, the operating system should be able to send output to whichever sound device is desired.19:26
jedijfit can....jrmy can't19:26
jedijfsometimes the path of least resistance works best...at least for *my* own mental health...and then if/when they get to that level they can do it themselves19:27
jedijfsite's up: http://fubarlabs.com/20:22
