lgcHi. For some reason my system goes mute all by itself. I need to fumble with controls in order to make it sound. What could be happening?01:07
SunStaranything plugged in?01:10
w30I keep having that problem also. My box keeps picking a Nvidia sound card instead of Intel (the correct one). If I switch it it works for a couple of reboots and then it picks Nvidia again , dammit01:10
SunStardoes the headphone jack function correctly? (if this is a laptop)01:10
lgcSunStar: are you asking me?01:11
SunStaryeah01:11
lgcSunStar: No, nothing plugged.01:11
lgcI need to go to Volume control and unmute it.01:11
SunStar lgc  what kind of sound hardware you got?01:12
lgcSunStar: How do I find out?01:12
SunStardo you have more than 1 sound processor? go to a terminal emulator and type lspci01:13
lgcSunStar: Intel HD Audio Controller (rev 03) .01:15
lgcSunStar: http://linuxg.net/how-to-fix-the-mute-problem-on-xubuntu-13-04-12-10-12-04/01:21
SunStarlgc, in the terminal type: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#001:24
SunStarwhat does it say for the very first line (codec)01:24
lgcSunStar: Realtek ALC272X01:25
SunStartry this: gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base01:29
SunStarthen add to the very end of the file: options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=101:30
lgcSunStar: The file doesn't seem to exist.01:31
lgcThere's an alsa-base.conf, though, SunStar.01:33
SunStargksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf01:33
SunStaryeah01:34
SunStarthen restart01:35
SunStarafter adding options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=101:36
lgcOK, I'll try the reboot, SunStar.01:38
lgcSunStar: It didn't work. :( .01:49
SunStarwell then i'd suggest posting on the forums with information about the computer including what version you are running, Intel HD Audio Controller (rev 03), Realtek ALC272X codec01:51
lgcSunStar: OK, I'll do that. Thanks a lot!01:52
SunStarmight want to remove that option from /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base  seeing as how it didnt fix the issue01:54
lgcSunStar: I'll do that.01:54
SunStarif there are multiple instances, leave the first01:54
lgcMultiple instances?01:55
SunStarif you see "options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1" in more than one place in the file01:56
SunStarjust remove the one you added01:56
lgcIt was the only one, SunStar .01:57
SunStarwell then good luck01:57
lgcThanks!01:59
Viva_NeroI can't seem to take a screenshot.04:08
Viva_NeroI press print src, but it never prompts me asking where and in what format to save.04:09
bazhangpng is the default04:10
holsteinViva_Nero: i find them in the /home or /home/pics or whatever04:10
bazhangthe save location is in home04:10
Viva_NeroI never get that far though, it doesn't show the preview or ask what name and location for the save04:11
holsteinViva_Nero: i never see that either.. i just find the shots in /home04:12
holsteinViva_Nero: i dont get a filetype prompt.. just a .png in /home04:12
Viva_Nerohmm..04:12
Viva_NeroHow do I make it start asking again?04:12
holsteinViva_Nero: try looking in your /home..04:13
holsteinViva_Nero: you can try another screenshot application04:13
Viva_NeroI take it the default program for it changed since karmic?04:13
holsteinViva_Nero: TBH, i dont ponder screenshots that much, friend..04:14
Viva_NeroI looked in my /home and /home/pictures, it didn't even save anything04:14
holsteinViva_Nero: maybe you are not hitting the correct keys.. sometimes you need "function" or "alt"04:15
holsteinor shift04:15
holsteinViva_Nero: you dont have to use the keyboard.. try accessing it in the menu04:15
Viva_Neronone of those had any effect04:16
holsteinViva_Nero: "those".. define what *exactly* you did04:17
holsteinViva_Nero: you went to "take a screenshot" in the menu? and did what?04:17
Viva_Nerothe 4 key combos you listed with print src04:17
holsteinViva_Nero: i have *no* idea what your keyboard will take04:17
holsteinViva_Nero: try the menu item, please04:17
Viva_NeroMenu item?04:18
holsteinViva_Nero: screenshot, from the menu04:18
Viva_NeroI'm in a java applet04:18
holsteinViva_Nero: please elaborate04:19
Viva_Neronothing screenshot related is listed in the right click menu anywhere, or the applications menu04:19
holstein!screenshot04:20
ubottuScreenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it.04:20
holsteinViva_Nero: what would i do? open a package manager, and search "screenshot".. i would read and install one or 2, and try them, and use the one that i can use and that works ofr me04:20
holsteinfor*04:20
Viva_NeroWait, is a screenshot program no longer isntalled by default?04:21
holsteinViva_Nero: it is/was for me.. but i have no idea what you are running or what you have changed.. or what your keyboard is like, or why you dont see "screenshot" in the menu04:21
holsteinViva_Nero: fact: you can install a screenshot applciation that prompts you.. and that you might like better anyways04:22
Viva_NeroRunning quantal, never touched anything screenshot related in synaptic04:22
holsteinViva_Nero: ok04:23

xubuntu695the new kernel 3.8.0-29 seems broken when trying to boot a full disk encrypted disk.09:18
xubuntu6953.8.0-19 still works.09:18
xubuntu695I don't get to the passphrase prompt.09:18
xubuntu695Instead, after ca. 3 minutes, it drops into a busybox.09:19
Noskcajxubuntu695, May i suggest you file a bug?09:25
xubuntu695O.K. I'll do that09:32

xubuntu555Hi xubuntu installed on 32bit AMD Athlon XP 1800+ cpu with ATI Radeon 9000 graphics card. Flash not playing any browsers (firefox, chromium or chrome). Uninstalled browsers and plugins and reinstalled and still no video or sound. Lost as to where to go now. Please help10:28
xubuntu555Should have also said this version 12.0410:29
knomexubuntu555, have you installed xubuntu-restricted-extras ?10:30
koegshow did you install flash?10:30
xubuntu555I have10:31
xubuntu555I have installed xubuntu-restricted-extras and Adobe Flash plug-in. Ive also tried Gnash SWF viewer and that didn't work. I've removed that one again.10:33
knomexubuntu555, you can't have multiple flash versions, that'll break it10:33
xubuntu555Sorry I removed the flash-plugin first then installed Gnash one however when that didn't work removed the Gnash one and reinstalled the Adobe one. I never had both installed at the same time and the software centre is showing only the Adobe one as currently installed.10:34
xubuntu555I also seen somewhere that I should remove or rename the libflashplayer.so so that Chrome would use it's own version however that didn't work either so renamed it back again.10:37

xubuntu687is it ok to uninstall all default applications you dont like and install the ones you want on xubuntu? or can you install xubuntu with no apps?13:22
TheSheepxubuntu687: yes13:39
xubuntu874I was on earlier as I'm having problems with flash however nobody was able to help at that time. I've since reinstalled xubuntu from scratch and I still face the same problems. Each time I try to load a flash based site (youtube) I get a crash report in firefox about a plugin-container and in Chromium. The only things that I have done since the reinstall are do an update and upgrade, restart, and then install xubuntu-restricted-e14:18
xubuntu874The system is old. It's an Abit NF7-S2G mobo with a AMD Athlon XP 1800+ cpu and ATI Radeon 9000 gx card.14:20
xubuntu874And 1GB ram14:20
