| Guest61362 | nope...on a Dell Inspirion XPS 435 | 10:59 |
| Guest61362 | i7 with 12 GB RAM | 10:59 |
| Guest61362 | ,--I want to have both "Studios" networked | 11:00 |
| cub | I have an old imac, it would be awesome to get ubuntu studio on it. :P | 11:00 |
| Guest61362 | well there is ubuntu 12.04 ppc...you just use synaptic to upgrade....so they say | 11:01 |
| cub | I'm not sure the imac will manage that. :P | 11:01 |
| cub | but I did run some old fedora on years ago | 11:02 |

| cub | yeah I was looking into installing Debian wheezy, but have had time for it so far | 11:03 |
| Guest61362 | I don't like doing the "upgrade over the internet" stuff anyway...your system is unstable unless you are very careful | 11:05 |

| columb | Hello. I have 2 audio cards (CA0106 and ALC1200) and 5.1 speakers. CA0106 sometimes starts randomly speed up audio and ALC1200 doesn't support 5.1 audio. How do I fix something of it? | 12:43 |
| holstein | columb: what are you using to support the 2 cards? | 15:44 |
| holstein | columb: i would probably try the main ubuntu channel, or maybe the myth channel | 15:44 |
| holstein | we are really more about creating content.. though, if i can help i will | 15:45 |
| holstein | using multiple cards is not ideal | 15:45 |
| columb | Already tried #ubuntu. | 15:45 |
| holstein | columb: so, you "tried" #ubuntu? | 15:45 |
| holstein | and then came here? | 15:45 |
| columb | Yep. | 15:45 |
| holstein | how about the main ubuntu mailing list? | 15:45 |
| holstein | how about the myth channel? | 15:46 |
| holstein | how about elaborating right here in this channel? | 15:46 |
| holstein | !detais | 15:46 |
| holstein | !details | 15:46 |
| ubottu | Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 15:46 |
| columb | Ubuntu is 12.04 LTS. Seems like I provided other info. | 15:46 |
| holstein | sure | 15:46 |
| holstein | i'll just ask my specific question agin | 15:47 |
| holstein | again* | 15:47 |
| holstein | no problem | 15:47 |
| holstein | columb: how are you supporting the 2 cards? with pulseaudio? | 15:47 |
| columb | Installed ubuntu like 2 days ago. I guess they are supported by alsa. | 15:48 |
| holstein | columb: confirm that you are using pulse or not | 15:48 |
| columb | How do I know it? | 15:48 |
| holstein | columb: share with me how you are using and configuring the 2 seperate sound cards | 15:48 |
| holstein | !pulse | 15:48 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 15:48 |
| holstein | pulse audio is another community that could be providing you with suport | 15:48 |
| holstein | what do i suggest? | 15:49 |
| holstein | i would remove one card, and just do stereo | 15:49 |
| holstein | keep it simple for now | 15:49 |
| columb | Right now I'm on stereo. It works... But I would like to use 5.1... | 15:49 |
| holstein | columb: sure, and im sure you will learn to suppor it, or purchase hardware that provides better linux support | 15:50 |
| holstein | otherwise, confirm you are using pulse and check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio and have in mind *exactly* what you would like to do | 15:51 |
| holstein | for example, are you wanting to split the 5.1 signal from some software and route it to the 2 cards? | 15:51 |
| columb | There is no need to use both cards. I purchased second a while ago for better sound quality. All I want is working 5.1 speakers on any of my cards. | 15:53 |
| holstein | columb: if one of the cards has 5.1 output, plug it in.. i would remove the other cards you are not going to use | 15:54 |
| columb | It's built-in. | 15:54 |
| holstein | it? | 15:54 |
| holstein | which? | 15:54 |
| holstein | you mentioned 2 devices? correct? | 15:54 |
| columb | Yes. | 15:54 |
| holstein | 2 sound cards? | 15:54 |
| columb | One of them is built-in. | 15:54 |
| columb | ALC1200. | 15:55 |
| holstein | columb: so, remove the other one.. and use the built in | 15:55 |
| columb | But it does not support 5.1 :( | 15:55 |
| holstein | so, disable the onboard in the bios, and use the 5.1 one | 15:55 |
| holstein | though, you dont know that 5.1 is supported on the device | 15:55 |
| holstein | columb: does the vendor support linux? | 15:55 |
| columb | CA0106. There are a dozen of topics on ubuntu forums with issues with this card. | 15:56 |
| columb | But it do support 5.1 audio. | 15:56 |
| columb | No idea about vendor support. | 15:57 |
| holstein | columb: do they provide linux support? | 15:57 |
| holstein | columb: then, it may not work with linux.. in 5.1 | 15:57 |
| holstein | columb: you can ask them to provide you support.. or you can "hack" around at it with alsa | 15:57 |
| holstein | what would i do? just use what is working, and let the system fake 5.1 after the stereo output | 15:57 |
| columb | CA0106 do work with linux. But sometimes it starts speeding up all audio on my pc. | 15:57 |
| holstein | columb: sounds like its not working well | 15:58 |
| holstein | columb: have you contacted the vendor of the hardware? | 15:58 |
| holstein | columb: what is the output of "aplay -l" ? | 15:58 |
| columb | It's should software related issue. Because it's worked fine under Windows. | 15:58 |
| holstein | columb: ? | 15:59 |
| holstein | columb: the vendor provided you that windows driver | 15:59 |
| holstein | columb: if they provided you a linux driver, it would work as well | 15:59 |
| columb | No, it's worked out of box. | 15:59 |
| holstein | the windows support is irrelevant | 15:59 |
| holstein | columb: linux supports what it can.. the kernel is modular.. that doesnt mean its going to be able to work "properly" | 16:00 |
| holstein | columb: what is the output of "aplay -l" ? | 16:00 |
| columb | http://pastebin.com/HKnWdzyh | 16:00 |
| holstein | columb: looks like its supporting all the outputs | 16:01 |
| holstein | columb: the *only* issue you have is that is "speeds up" ? | 16:01 |
| columb | With ca0106 - yes. | 16:01 |
| holstein | columb: why do you say "with ca106" ? | 16:02 |
| holstein | are you using the other device? | 16:02 |
| holstein | columb: im about to leave, so i will give you a list of things to try | 16:02 |
| holstein | columb: i would try the pulse audio channel | 16:03 |
| holstein | when asking for help, i would *not* mention what you are mentioning | 16:03 |
| holstein | you make it seem like you are using multiple devices to emulate 5.1 | 16:03 |
| holstein | columb: i would say "im using this device and when i play this material it speeds up" | 16:03 |
| holstein | i would test something with good codec support in something well supported | 16:03 |
| columb | Right now I'm using built-in ALC1200. | 16:04 |
| holstein | VLC with an ogg file | 16:04 |
| holstein | see if you can replicate the exact conditions for the speedup | 16:04 |
| holstein | start the application that is speeding up the audio from the terminal, and see if you see helpful output | 16:04 |
| holstein | columb: stop using the built in audio.. if you can, disable it in the bios for your testing | 16:05 |
| columb | Guys from #ubuntu helped me to enable it. The issue was before it was disabled. | 16:06 |
| columb | *it was enabled. | 16:06 |
| holstein | columb: if you dont want to use it, then turn it off, and troubleshoot the issue | 16:06 |
| holstein | columb: as i suggested, in the bios would be best | 16:07 |
| columb | Stereo is better then speeded up sound. :( | 16:07 |
| holstein | columb: ? | 16:07 |
| holstein | columb: this is for troubleshooting the issue | 16:07 |
| holstein | columb: i am here on and off, and i will try and point you in the proper direction...OR you can wait for another volunteer | 16:07 |
| holstein | though, you wont get specific help for that issue here, likely.. | 16:08 |
| columb | Thanks for your help. | 16:08 |
| holstein | and, i will help you, but you will need to be willing to troubleshoot | 16:08 |
| holstein | so, good luck and i will be happy to help later if i can, and you are willing. cheers! | 16:08 |

| Ambrose | Hello, can anyone recommend a way to remotely connect to the GUI, via VNC or RDP so that I can share the same desktop on the physical machine and remotely? | 23:22 |
| vlt | Ambrose: x11vnc | 23:30 |
| Ambrose | vlt: Hah thanks, I was just about to apt-get that :p | 23:31 |
| Ambrose | vlt: Got it all dialed in here, thanks. | 23:38 |
| Ambrose | Also installed xrdp so I don't have to download a seperate client :D | 23:39 |
