dunpealHi!  How do I enable 5.1 surround on Xubuntu?00:05
dunpealIt's easy to do on Ubuntu by just clicking the Volume Manager, but I can't find the options on Xubuntu's equivalent.00:06

reggie-mandunpeal: Try running pavucontrol, going to Configuration, then changing the profile.00:38
dunpealreggie-man: I tried, it doesn't include an option for anything above Stereo for a device that is 5.1 capable (and I was able to configure as 5.1 on Ubuntu 12.04)00:39
reggie-manI'm not sure then. I'm sorry.00:40
dunpealreggie-man: nvm, thanks.00:41

ubottuPrimula1380: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages05:45
Primula1380thanks05:46
Primula1380Is it true that xubuntu would slow down the Mac?05:48
cfhowlettPrimula1380, ??? highly unlikely05:48
Primula1380good05:48
Primula1380The xubuntu OS is much easier to use than this Mac OSX system05:49
Primula1380Since I got MacMini1,1, does that mean I just need to download Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx to create an installation CD?05:55
cfhowlettPrimula1380, 10.04 is LONG past end-of-life.  get 14.04.105:57
Primula1380That would work with a MiniMac1,1?05:58
Primula1380this MniMac is 200605:58
cfhowlettPrimula1380, 10.04 is no longer supported = no security05:59
Primula1380I mean it's old...from 200605:59
Primula1380yeah, the updates built in would be useless for security05:59

brainwashdoes this problem affect other user accounts or the guest session?23:48
rosaecaeruleaeim the only user23:49
rosaecaeruleaethis is not a guest session23:49
brainwashyou should be able to select the quest session and check if the problem is user specific23:49
brainwashfrom the login greeter23:49
rosaecaeruleaebrainwash, are you telling me to change sessions?23:50
brainwashyes please, it helps to debug your problem23:52
brainwashif the guest session is working properly, then there is something wrong with your user account23:52
