holsteinxubuntu96w: sure but, now you have another issue, instead of an answer..00:00
holsteinxubuntu96w: so, just ignore that, and dont assume the mic is time traveling ;)00:00
holsteini say, just try *anything* else that you can understand.. like cheese for recording a video with audio..00:00
holsteinanything that uses the mic, that you can easily playback and see if its "crackling".. and you can turn the level down in pavucontrol and test00:01

xubuntu_Hello. Sound is not delivered through speakers. No sound.13:31
cerealNot sure where the best place to discuss this is, so my bad if it isn't 100% relevant here, but I've got two Xubuntu systems and attempting to use a displayport kvm to switch between them. As far as a relevant point, I am using the proprietary nvidia drivers. When I switch away and then back, I never get my video back again...so any suggestions would be helpful.17:46
holsteincereal: what addresses the issue? removing the KVM? or another driver? does the KVM work otherwise? what do you mean by, "never get it back"? you mean, the screensaver or sleep kicks in? if so, have you tried just disabling that? since, the screen switching will address that..17:58
cerealso, yeah..17:59
cerealwhen i switch between the two pc's17:59
cerealwhen i switch back, my monitors do not receive video back17:59
holsteinsure.. im just seeing it as, the display *could* be sleeping and not waking up, and not be related to the KVM in any way17:59
cereali did a test with the ungodly windows and it worked17:59
holsteinand, the windows test is a good test to see that the hardware is working properly17:59
cerealyes17:59
holsteinstep one for me would be, see if the display comes back from sleep or standby, or whatever you want to call it.. without the KVM18:00
holsteinthen, i would just disable that functionality in that scenario, and test with the KVM in place18:00
cereali have a feeling that the nvidia driver doesn't really bother polling for displays? not certain since I don't know well enough how that works18:00
holsteinalso, you may not need the proprietary driver, so, you can try this, on that hardware, with the open driver, from the live iso18:00
cerealwell i've been using this desktop for a long time with xubuntu so coming back from display sleep or whatever its called works all the time18:01
cerealw/o the kvm18:01
cerealsince this particularly is being used as a gaming pc i'd prefer to use the properietary driver (for now) but...valid poitn to try it with the live iso and see if that changes things18:01
holsteinsure. just be sure you are comparing the same version of ubuntu.. same base.. 14.04, or 14.10.. or whatever you use18:01
cerealyeah, currently on 14.1018:02
cereallol i lied, 14.0418:02
xubuntu59wHello, I just installed Xubuntu 14.10 and I have a few problems with it. The first one is that my touchpad does not work anymore and the other problem is that I cannot connect to internet. If you can help me, thank you18:04
holsteinso far, i have not had an issue with the proprietary nvidia driver on my specific nvidia hardware, and any of my KVM's i have tested with..18:05
holsteinxubuntu59w: when you say "anymore", when did the touchpad work?18:06
holsteinxubuntu59w: im assuming, this is a laptop, so, do you have access to wired internet you can use to help solve the wifi issue?18:06
xubuntu59wI was on windows 8 and my touchpad worked correctly and when i installed Xubuntu, it stoped working...18:06
holsteinxubuntu59w: sure, but the hardware vendor promised you windows 8 would work.. they likely didnt hire a team to work on linux support, and promise you that, so, it'll be up to do you do that job18:07
cerealholstein, hrmm, are your kvms that you use displayport?18:07
cereali'm wondering if its a DP specific issue since that is newer18:08
holsteinxubuntu59w: first thing i would do, simply plug in wired networking, and apply updates.. reboot and test again18:08
xubuntu59wok i will try this thank you !18:08
holsteincereal: correct.. KV*M*'s18:08
holsteinor, K*V*M :)18:08

holstein!wifi | xubuntu59w18:09
ubottuxubuntu59w: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs18:09
holstein^ thats where i would start with the wifi issue18:09
holsteinits likely a broadcom chip that requires a proprietary driver.. or something simple like a switch on the unit18:10
priuonhello there. I have an rpi hostapd server which i can connect to from android devices. Using my xubuntu machine with wpa_supplicant and dhclient will connect and the server is pingable but there is no internet access. I have resolv.conf nameserver and search both to the server ip. route and ifconfig is configurered from dhclient and seems allright18:13
holsteinpriuon: i would look at my dns servers.. and specify them manually, and try18:13
holsteinspecify 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 or the openDNS ones.. or whatever you use18:14
priuonwith resolv.conf?18:15
priuonI don't think the dns servers are the problem.18:17
holsteinpriuon: if you can ping the gateway, and not "google.com", seems plausible.. you can always ping other IP's and see18:18
holsteinping 74.125.224.212 for example vs ping google.com18:19
holsteinyou can isolate the name servers.. and specify them if needed18:19
priuonholstein: well the android device gets connected without a problem. So the server seems to be allright. Using nm-applet results in the same issue. If I put search in resolv.conf to the server ip I can ping the android device.18:20
holsteinpriuon: sure.. "seems" is the issue there.. *test* if you can ping your gateway.. then, try to ping 74.125.224.212 if you can ping both of those, then, try ping google.com.. then, you'll *know* the nameservers are likely the issue, and can specify them manually18:21
priuonholstein: configure the dns server via resolv.conf/nameserver then?18:24
cerealholstein, hrmm, did a quick test with a live disk and switching seemed to work, though it wouldn't detect my second display nor the proper resolution, but switching did work18:26
cereali wouldn't be surprised if there just isn't support quite yet for the 980 for some reason18:26
holsteinpriuon: just test, by pinging as i suggested above.. you can see if the DNS server settings are the issue by removing them from the equation18:27
holsteinpriuon: test pinging your gateway, as you say you have, and that worked.. then, test pinging 74.125.224.212 the *same* way.. if that works, then, you *can* connect to google.com.. then, try pinging google.com ... *if* that doesnt work, then its logical to work with the name servers netx18:27
holsteinnext*18:28
holsteincereal: that could be the case, though, thats so surprising.. seems like such an external hardware thing, rather than something a driver can "break"..18:28
priuonholstein: pinging the gateway works. Pinging some domain on the Web does not work.18:29
holsteincereal: not sure what i would do next, to try and isolate.. seems like to me, from what you say, it *is* with that proprietary driver.. maybe i would look for a newer or older version via ppa18:29
cerealholstein, yeah i really am at a loss really18:29
cerealhrm, good idea18:29
holsteinpriuon: sure, friend. so, *dont* try "some domain".. try the IP address i suggested, which *is* google.com 74.125.224.21218:29
holsteinpriuon: if you *can* ping 74.125.224.212 and not google.come, since 74.125.224.212 *is* google.com, then, it stands to reason, the nameservers on your end are the issue18:30
cerealwell, oddly enough my laptop does the same exact thing and its running 331 and my desktop is running 34618:30
cerealboth doing displayport18:30
xubuntu67wHI18:39
priuonholstein: I tried using 8.8.8.8 as nameserver which doesn't solve the issue.18:45
holsteinpriuon: did you try to ping 74.125.224.212 ?18:47
holsteinpriuon: can you ping 74.125.224.212 ? or no?18:47
priuonholstein: i can not.18:48
holsteinpriuon: if you cant, then, its *not* a dns issue, so you dont need to mess with that..18:48
priuonholstein: I can not ping 74.125.224.212 neither from the server nor from my xubuntu machine. But I can ping other adresses from the server which I can not ping from the xubuntu machine18:49
Azelphurpriuon: check your subnet mask.18:50
Azelphurholstein: that IP doesn't respond to ping18:52
priuonAzelphur: changed the subnet from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0 now reset the default gateway and it still doesn't work.18:53
holsteinAzelphur: sure.. maybe suggest one that does18:53
holsteinthe idea being, remove the dns resolving from the equation.. and test18:53
Azelphurholstein: any IP that responds to ping? 216.58.218.46 (google)18:54
holsteinpriuon: so, please try pinging 216.58.218.4618:55
holsteinpriuon: so, can you ping 216.58.218.46 (google) ?18:57
Azelphurholstein: hilariously now that address has stopped responding18:58
holsteinAzelphur: might depend on where you are..18:59
Azelphuryea18:59
Azelphurping 63.251.20.21, that's my servers address, it isn't going anywhere18:59
Azelphur:)18:59
holsteinpriuon: regardless, choose pinging something by IP and not by url.. this will allow you to isolate your nameservers..18:59
