| OnkelTem | I have no Sound Preferences. How to install it? | 07:16 |
|---|---|---|
| OnkelTem | I don't understand how volume control works. I see gray speaker icon in the tray, and when I right-click on it a menu pop-ups, and to top menu item reads: | 07:49 |
| OnkelTem | Volume Control Settings | 07:50 |
| OnkelTem | but when I click on it, instead of opening any control settings, a new black speaker icon appears in the trat | 07:50 |
| OnkelTem | so now I have 2 icons there: smaller and gray, and bigger and black | 07:50 |
| OnkelTem | wth? | 07:51 |
| Unit193 | Open terminal, type alsamixer | 07:51 |
| OnkelTem | wut? :) | 07:52 |
| OnkelTem | I try to understand LXDE | 07:52 |
| Unit193 | Menu > Accessories > LXterminal | 07:53 |
| OnkelTem | Unit193: of course, thank you for trying to help, but this is inappropriate | 07:55 |
| OnkelTem | its like switching channels in sattelite instead of a receiver | 07:55 |
| OnkelTem | What about pulseaudio and pavucontrol at least? | 07:55 |
| Unit193 | Lubuntu has alsa by default, but if you have more than a basic setup you may be better off with it, yeah. | 07:56 |
| OnkelTem | Unit193: I have LXDE desktop. And my question is about how can I configure sound settings here | 07:57 |
| Unit193 | Yes. | 07:58 |
| OnkelTem | I see a gray speaker icon in the tray, where "Volume control" menu item breeds one more black speaker icon | 07:59 |
| OnkelTem | if I open that menu again and click Volume control item one more time... | 07:59 |
| OnkelTem | nothing happens | 08:00 |
| OnkelTem | Now if I right click that new black speaker icon, I see another menu with two items: | 08:00 |
| OnkelTem | Mute, Sound prefrences | 08:01 |
| OnkelTem | Clicking the sound preferences opens up a new window, similar to Gnome/Unity System Settings | 08:01 |
| OnkelTem | But instead of tens of icons in there, I see only few: Lanugage Support, Printers, Software & Updates | 08:02 |
| OnkelTem | and no Sound Settings | 08:02 |
| OnkelTem | How can I disable showing ScreeSaver lock scree when switching to another user which session is already running? | 10:18 |
| OnkelTem | Does Lubuntu support configuring xrandr to use Dual Monitors? | 10:37 |
| OnkelTem | Currently I have same image on both monitors | 10:37 |
| OnkelTem | Hellooooo | 11:14 |
| phillw | OnkelTem: I *think* you need grandr or arandr for that | 12:51 |
| OnkelTem | phillw: thanks, arandr did the job! Does it save changes between sessions? | 13:56 |
| phillw | OnkelTem: i believe it does. | 13:58 |
| phillw | I've only ever used lxrandr as I've only had to link to a projector. I do know that arandr is more 'powerful', but it also uses more resources :) | 13:59 |
| * OnkelTem is thinking about purchasing Sublime Text | 14:01 | |
| OnkelTem | phillw: but for it work I need to place arandr into autostart? | 14:04 |
| phillw | do you want arandr to autostart? | 14:17 |
| phillw | if so, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1984904 has a discussion on that. | 14:17 |
| OnkelTem | I want the effect of applying arandr to be persistant _ | 14:17 |
| OnkelTem | :) | 14:17 |
| faLUCE | hello. how can I enable hdmi audio on a cedar trail mobo with (l)ubuntu 12.04 ? | 16:05 |
| faLUCE | hello. how can I enable hdmi audio on a cedar trail mobo with (l)ubuntu 12.04 ? I can see the HDMI device with aplay -l but I don't see it with alsamixer | 16:12 |
| phillw | faLUCE: I think you need the pulseaudio / pavucontrol duo for hdmi sound | 16:18 |
| faLUCE | i launched pavucontrol, but I don't see hdmi in the combo | 16:18 |
| phillw | have you installed pulseaudio? | 16:19 |
| faLUCE | phillw: yes | 16:19 |
| faLUCE | and it's running | 16:19 |
| phillw | faLUCE: it seems you can use alsa for hdmi sound.. http://askubuntu.com/questions/285624/ubuntu-13-04-not-detect-the-hdmi-sound-output | 16:20 |
| phillw | faLUCE: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2147651 has a decent discussion on the subject. I don't use hdmi sound, so can only point you to where to get information. | 16:22 |
| faLUCE | phillw: thanks, all solved | 16:22 |
| phillw | using alsa or pulseaudio ? | 16:23 |

| csc` | hmm | 18:13 |
| ianorlin | what? | 18:14 |
| csc` | Trying to configure extended dual displays | 18:17 |
| csc` | with a resolution difference | 18:17 |
| csc` | but my primary no longer has lxpanel | 18:17 |
| csc` | so im guessing I can't have one display resolution larger than the other, they both have to be the same for lxpanel to work :( | 18:19 |
| ianorlin | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/MultiDisplay this is really all I can find searcihng online for the subject | 18:22 |
| csc` | it's just disorientating is all | 18:24 |
| csc` | ive got it working but you know how typically if you setup dual displays on winblows, your second extended monitor has no taskbar...its just another workspace really? | 18:24 |
| csc` | this is the first time i've bothered trying it in linux-based, so i wasn't expecting the whole taskbar to be stretched across | 18:24 |
| csc` | ianorlin, i've already pretty much used a similar document | 18:26 |
| ianorlin | maybe try putting pannel alignment to center in panel settings | 18:27 |
| csc` | nope | 18:31 |
| ianorlin | what is the width set to? | 18:31 |
| csc` | i already changed that before you said something but it still has the gap below the window for the panel | 18:32 |
| csc` | curse you linux | 18:32 |
| ianorlin | hit f11 can make it fullscreen | 18:32 |
| csc` | hide panel when not in use is a better solution >_> | 18:33 |
| csc` | or actually..hmm | 18:33 |
| phillw | csc`: >> I grabbed the liveCD and booted it up. I installed arandr and got dual head via a gui. I set lxpanel to 50% and selected the really wide desperado wallpaper. Not bad... not bad at all. | 18:33 |
| phillw | -Hinto << | 18:33 |
| csc` | phillw, that's not the problem | 18:33 |
| phillw | found that on a forum area | 18:33 |
| csc` | the original issue was how I could have two separate resolutions | 18:34 |
| csc` | without lxpanel messing up | 18:34 |
| phillw | arandr should allow that? | 18:34 |
| csc` | ...arandr isn't the problem. | 18:34 |
| csc` | lxpanel is. | 18:34 |
| m_vix | Hi | 18:35 |
| phillw | you initially said the task bar was stretched across both screens? | 18:35 |
| csc` | when i set the resolution to the other monitor above 1024x768, it decides to not show lxpanel at all on the main screen | 18:35 |
| csc` | phillw, that was just a nitpick complaint, the real issue is the one above | 18:35 |
| csc` | what's happening is lxpanel is still displaying and is taking priority on the higher resolution | 18:37 |
| csc` | since this is a laptop, using the secondary monitor for the taskbar is very disorientating | 18:37 |
| csc` | there we go | 18:38 |
| csc` | only way to remedy it is to have the panel on the top of the screen instead of the bottom | 18:40 |
| phillw | I've only used xrandr for mirroring to a projector, so I've no experience with what you're attempting... sorry. | 18:41 |
| csc` | you don't even need that to mirror | 18:43 |
| csc` | mirroring is plug and play | 18:43 |
| phillw | I turned it on using lxrandr, the slimmed down version of arandr that ships with lubuntu. | 18:44 |
| csc` | There was no tool to extend displays out of the box in lubuntu that i could see | 18:45 |
| phillw | csc`: correct, lxrandr just does mirroring, you need arandr for using a second monitor as extended display area. | 18:46 |
| csc` | heh the way i've got it setup at the moment, if I decide to unplug this monitor i have no lxpanel =3 | 18:48 |
