[01:00] How does one go about setting up audio drivers on Ubuntu Server on an 6-8 year old dell, and should I be using OSS or ALSA? [01:48] hello [01:49] is there any way to change the audio input jack into an output one? [02:26] SejmL: you can try JACK, but that hardware [02:37] SejmL: i meant to say, thats hardware... that function is going to be hardware AFAIK [07:26] hello all [07:40] http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=a20763398876e16c4ff67b07823edd709f4eb7b0 sound help please...i hear nothing [13:10] Aloha, I've got a problem with grub not finding all installations [13:12] hello MrChrisDruif [13:12] Hai holstein [13:13] im about to run out the door, but i would probably try reinstalling grub, then i would just add them manually if they were still not picked up auto-magically [13:13] i would be suspicous as to why they are not being picked up though... [13:14] http://paste.ubuntu.com/705657/ <= sudo fdisk -l [13:24] ... and? [13:25] sda1 is Lubuntu 11.10. sda3 is Ubuntu 11.04 [13:26] I can only boot to Lubuntu 11.10 [13:27] And "sudo update-grub" can't seem to find the Ubuntu on sda3, only the two kernel versions for Lubuntu [13:30] MrChrisDruif: i think the file you need to edit starts with "#do not edit this file" ;) [13:31] Yeah, it's always the same !@$# ;-) [13:31] MrChrisDruif: Did you install Lubuntu last? [13:31] you should see the other entries there, and you can mimic them for the other install thats not getting picked up [13:31] And during the install, did you specify where to install grub? [13:32] If not, then Lubuntu can't find Ubuntu, because Lubuntu's grub overwrote Ubuntu's. [13:32] but, it should just search all drives for kernels right? [13:32] I thought I told the installer to install them side-by-side <_<" [13:32] osprober or whatever it is looks for installs not boot entries right? [13:33] Thought so, and it is installed [13:33] I thought it only looked for bootloaders [13:33] How would it find Windows then? [13:33] geirha: and thats more of a question really... [13:33] im not 100% on that [13:34] If it did search for kernels, how would it know which partitions to use as root for those kernels? [13:34] holstein: are you in the room? [13:35] pip__: for a bit... whats up? [13:35] oh nothing, you gave me a tip the other day, graphics probs [13:35] thought I'd update you [13:35] MrChrisDruif: Windows will have a bootloader of sorts on the partition. [13:35] sure... how goes the battle pip__ ? [13:36] MrChrisDruif: Chroot into the Ubuntu system and install its grub on /dev/sda1 [13:36] lol, so-so. I can't enable desktop effects in a live 10.10 environment, but a live 11.04 environment runs Unity [13:36] any idea what that's about? [13:37] the internet seems less 'wobbly' with 11.04 too [13:37] pip__: kernel verion? maybe something about the drivers for your hardware [13:38] ah, you know I wasn't bright enough to note them :-/ [13:38] pip__: i could imagine some ATI hardware that would only work with the proprietary driver getting open driver support in a newer kernel verion [13:38] version* [13:38] pip__: eh... its a live CD.. you can do it next time :) [13:39] I'm pretty certain that the 10.10 kernel version that wouldn't give effects was 2.6.35, that was on a real install [13:39] im just speculating though... [13:40] lol, it's better than nothing at this point [13:40] no reason *not* to install 11.10 now though [13:40] well, that's exactly what I'm thinking [13:40] or, just dont do compiz [13:40] but compiz is soooooooooooooooo pretty [13:40] wobbly windows are fun and all, but i dont use compiz on everything [13:41] I don'tdoowobbly, mainly the cube & some emerald decoration TBH [13:41] don'tdo wobbly, even [13:42] I'm assuming that there are still issues with the cube & stuff with unity [13:42] i wouldnt know [13:42] That asidethough if Unity's a little more stable now I'd like to give it another go [13:43] unity-2d is nice and light [13:43] or was when i checked it out [13:43] there were just a couple of things that niggled me in Unity 3d so I went back to 10.10. [13:43] yeah, that's an idea... [13:43] 2d I mean [13:44] you can run gnome in 11.04 [13:44] gnome2... its 11.10 that will have gnome3 [13:44] I found that a touch twitchy too TBH, ergo the step back [13:45] eh.. if i were stepping back, id go to the LTS... 10.04 [13:45] thats what im running [13:45] anyways... i gotta run... later all [13:45] thanks holstein ttfn [19:29] hi i am having boot problems any help appriciated === yofel_ is now known as yofel === SanbarCo1puting is now known as SanbarComputing
