deepspeed_Does anyone else run enlightenment on their recording pc?11:49
deepspeed_It seems to want to bug out on me with a lot of programs.11:50
deepspeed_I have enlightenment on a lucid base, and I can't get rackarrack or jackrack to work, and several other music related programs.11:50
deepspeed_Jack ardour seem fine, and record great, but the less popular programs are iffy.11:51

T61_problemsHey there, GridCube22:42
T61_problemsHello everyone, does anyone here have any knowledge on internal microphone for the Lenovo T61?22:43
len-dtT61_problems, in bug #100481922:53
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1004819 in alsa-driver (Ubuntu) "[Lenovo SL410, Intel 82801I, Mic, Internal] Mic doesn't work" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/100481922:53
len-dtThere are two problems mentioned. The first which I have seen before, is to unlink the two channels and have one full and the other zip.22:54
len-dtThe other you have to read to see if it makes sense.22:55
T61_problems"unlink the two channels" ?22:56
T61_problemshow do I do that, len-dt?22:56
len-dtWith alsa mixer22:56
T61_problemsok, I opened alsamixer in terminal22:56
len-dtHit F4 to go to capture22:57
T61_problemsthere22:57
T61_problemsInternal Mic has 2 spaces, both are blank.  No columns22:57
len-dtIt may be the second problem then.22:58
T61_problemsI have columns for Mic Boost, Capture, Capture 1 Dock Mic Boost, Internal Mic Boost22:58
T61_problemsbut Input Source and Input Source 1 are completely blank22:58
len-dttry capture22:59
T61_problemswhat about capture?22:59
T61_problemsthe columns are full.22:59
T61_problemsup to the red22:59
T61_problems...everything is maxed out.22:59
len-dtYa, I am trying to figure out how to unlink left and right using alsa mixer23:00
T61_problemsit is funny, because the audio on the laptop is otherwise quite alright23:02
T61_problemsand, if I use the windows partition, the mic works fine.23:02
len-dtYa, the windows driver knows the device.23:03
T61_problemsyep.  But it also tells us that the thing isn't broken23:04
T61_problemsI keep the partition around.  It can be useful, at times.  But the xubuntu interface is 10000x better.23:04
len-dtT61_problems, from the menu try starting "mixer" in multimedia or media playback23:06
* len-dt should ask what distro is being used23:07
T61_problemsxubuntu 12.0423:07
len-dtok it will be in media playback23:07
T61_problemsand "Mixer" option does not exist.23:08
T61_problemsI opened ALSAmixer in the terminal23:08
len-dtI don't know how to unlink chanels in that mixer ... I should but don't23:08
T61_problemswhat mixer do I need?23:09
len-dtIt should be there menu-> mediaplayback->mixer23:10
len-dtor menu->Audio Production->mixers->mixer23:11
T61_problemsnone of those options exist :D23:12
len-dtSorry you said xubuntu, I was thinking ubuntustudio... My fault.23:12
T61_problemsya, its ok23:12
len-dtDo they have the little speaker icon in the tray?23:13
len-dtIt should have sound settings at the bottom when clicked.23:14
T61_problemsNo, no, no23:14
T61_problemslol23:14
len-dtIn your mutimedia sub menu is there any kind of control?23:15
len-dtI haven't tried xubuntu for a bit... I don't remember what is there.23:16
T61_problemsI think that I've already been where you are headed.23:17
T61_problemsthe issue might have to do with configuration files.23:17
T61_problemsthere is an app called Pulseaudio, and a control interface called Pavucontrol23:17
T61_problemsthe mixer is ALSAmixer23:17
len-dtYa, that one lets you split things23:18
T61_problemsthe issue with Pavucontrol is that it wasn't recognizing any devices.23:18
len-dtYikes!23:18
len-dtThe xubuntu guys had nothing to say? There are a few of them that do lots of audio23:19
T61_problemswho?23:20
T61_problemsI've investigated this issue online, and there really isn't anything out there23:20
len-dtTry astraljava  maybe. He would know who else.23:21
len-dtYa, sometimes things are like that. I had fun with my internal mic on my net book.23:21
len-dtIt had both the one chanel only problem as well as only working at 48k.23:22
T61_problemsok, thanks23:22
len-dtI had to set pulse default to 48000 in stead of 4410023:22
len-dtSorry I couldn't help more23:23
T61_problemsno, its ok23:25
astraljavaT61_problems: Sorry, I only tweak things in pavucontrol and alsamixer, if they won't work for you, then I cannot be of further assistance either.23:25
T61_problemsthank you for the effort!23:25
T61_problemsand, thanks astraljava!23:25
