ppisatithe push to talk button doesn't work... :(08:57
ppisatii can crackling hear you08:57
ppisatibut can't talk08:57
ppisati:(08:57
smbbah08:58
ppisatii just dist-upgraded09:08
ppisatilet's see if it helps...09:08
* ppisati -> reboot09:08
ppisatii can hear you, but my push-to-talk button doesn't work09:14
ppisatiand changing it, doesn't actually make any difference09:14
ppisati:(09:14
smbppisati, One of those mysteries about mumble to me is that even if you tell it to not use speech for status messages, it still causes the speech-dispatcher to start. Which is one more needless complication.09:37
ppisatismb: eh...09:38
ppisatippisati: it usually works for me09:38
ppisatismb: ^09:38
ppisatismb: but today it's completely broken... :(09:38
smbppisati, Not saying it does not work (usually) but sometimes when one has to kill things to unbreak it, I also have to make sure to kill speech09:39
smbBut I don't use it, so I would not need it to run09:39
ppisatismb: i rebooted after a dist-upgrade, hoping it would fix it09:39
smbppisati, You should be more *experienced* by now... :-P09:39
ppisatismb: and i had this problem before this dist-upgrade, so it was something from last week09:40
smbppisati, Unfortunately for you it seems something bad very much restricted to your hda codec09:41
ppisatismb: i don't know, it's like the input channel is completely broken09:41
ppisatismb: lips don't turn red if i press the push-to-talk button09:42
ppisatismb: and even switching from ptt to continous or voice recognition, doesn't make any difference09:42
ppisatibah09:42
smbppisati, Not sure this helps, but did you try to go into config and change input to samething different and back09:42
ppisatilife sucks, and then you mumble09:42
smbsomthing09:42
ppisatismb: i could try wiping the entire config09:44
ppisatismb: lemme try09:44
ppisatiuhm, first problem09:44
ppisatiwhere does mumble store its config?09:44
smbppisati, I believe to remember that sometimes you had to fiddle around with the config to make it use what you wanted it to use.09:44
smb.mumble ?09:45
smbno .Mumble09:45
ppisati[flag@luxor ~]$ ls -la .mumble*09:45
ppisatils: cannot access .mumble*: No such file or directory09:45
ppisati[flag@luxor ~]$ ls -la .Mumble09:45
ppisatils: cannot access .Mumble: No such file or directory09:45
smbSorry09:46
smbHad some sockets there... actually .congig/Mumble09:46
smb.config! 09:46
smbGah09:46
apwppisati, when i get that i find going into the 'audio wizard' and clicking forward a few times09:54
apwwill either hang mumble completely (then killall mumble; killall pulseaudio; sleep 10; mumble -- is needed)09:55
apwor it fixes it magically ... and you are good09:55
ppisatican't set any shortcut for PTT now10:02
ppisatiok, i give up10:02

rbasakIf a driver works on an old release when a linux-backports-modules* package is installed, does that mean there should be support in the latest upstream kernel? ie. is linux-backports-modules fed from the upstream kernel, the Ubuntu kernel, or somewhere else?11:12
apwrbasak, it is fed from the wireless backports tree, but yes in principle it means that it is supprted in mainline11:18
apw(compat wireless is the right name)11:18
rbasakGreat - thanks!11:19
apwrbasak, though testing kernels from later releases should be as simple as installing the newer kernel and testing11:19
rbasakI need a USB wireless dongle because I'm working with the latest upstream kernel on my ARM Chromebook to experiment with ARM KVM, and the upstream kernel doesn't have support for the Chromebook's wireless yet. Trying to figure out what to buy.11:20
apwsomething old :)11:21
rbasaklinuxemporium.co.uk said that 10.04 worked with linux-backports-modules-... installed, so I figured I'd get that one. But they're sold out :(11:21
rbasakThere are various people selling cheap stuff on eBay with "Linux" support but I don't know if that means mainline or some binary driver built for !arm.11:23
rbasakThis is when I wish the Linux trademark were used more. If they said "Linux first-class" means mainline support only, then it'd be easier for me to shop for hardware that declares that.11:24
rbasak(since "Linux" support can mean anything)11:24
apwyeah indeed, it is a minefield, buy something older, and you'll likely be ok, maybe11:29
infinityrbasak: USB ethernet tends to be less headache than USB wireless, FWIW.12:06
infinityrbasak: And dirt cheap.12:06
infinityrbasak: I've got one similar to this http://www.amazon.com/Cisco-USB300M-Cisco-Linksys-Ethernet-Adapter/dp/B001NLV4TQ12:07
infinityrbasak: (And those dongles have had mainline support forever, and I use 'em on all sorts of ARM boards when they lack ethernet or their own is buggered)12:08
ogra_just dont use to many of them at the same time :)12:10
