| Luka00 | Hello people, I use Skype but when a friend sends me photos and videos do not receive anything and yet he sends them...why? | 18:52 |
| wxl | Luka00: when i use it, i get links to open in a browser. | 18:53 |
| Luka00 | not me | 18:53 |
| wxl | Luka00: what version are you using? and from what repository? | 18:54 |
| Luka00 | 4.3 | 18:54 |
| Luka00 | a moment I see | 18:55 |
| wxl | i'm using 4.3.0.37 from the canonical partner repository | 18:55 |
| Luka00 | as me I think | 18:55 |
| wxl | i'm pretty sure i use the one from skype itself at home | 18:55 |
| wxl | both function the same way | 18:55 |
| wxl | want me to test sending you a picture? XD | 18:55 |
| Luka00 | ehmmm | 18:55 |
| Luka00 | xd | 18:56 |
| Luka00 | do you think is not true and that make fun of me? | 18:57 |
| Luka00 | :( | 18:57 |
| wxl | nope, but its certainly possible that it has something to do with how your friend is doing things | 18:58 |
| wxl | you need more datapoints | 18:59 |
| Luka00 | sure | 18:59 |
| wxl | what os is he on? | 18:59 |
| Luka00 | windows 10 | 18:59 |
| wxl | yeah so it's possible it may allow him to do things that aren't possible to display on thge linux version | 18:59 |
| Luka00 | and he say have different options | 18:59 |
| wxl | i don't know | 18:59 |
| wxl | you should ask him exactly how he's sending the pics | 19:00 |
| Luka00 | same with his android | 19:00 |
| wxl | if it's a copy/paste that might not work | 19:00 |
| wxl | maybe if he actually uses the send file option that might work better | 19:00 |
| Luka00 | he say to use send file | 19:00 |
| wxl | my wife has an ios device and she sends me pics all the time through there | 19:00 |
| wxl | then maybe have him try copy/paste | 19:00 |
| Luka00 | i must ask | 19:01 |
| wxl | it's also possible you have some firewall | 19:01 |
| Luka00 | on lubuntu? | 19:01 |
| wxl | you also might check with #ubuntu | 19:01 |
| wxl | no, on your router | 19:01 |
| wxl | or modem | 19:01 |
| Luka00 | I hope not | 19:02 |
| wxl | see if you guys can exchange text files | 19:02 |
| wxl | that's an easy way to check | 19:02 |
| Luka00 | I have never tried to send anything maybe it is a good idea | 19:03 |
| wxl | Luka00: make sure to try it both ways. my guess is if there is a firewall, it is on your end | 19:03 |
| Luka00 | but also to you the Skype messages is updated only when you are both online? | 19:04 |
| wxl | often that's the case. i have that problem even on android though | 19:04 |
| Luka00 | Now I can not prove because it is offline | 19:10 |
| Luka00 | we will try to exchange text files as you say | 19:11 |
| Luka00 | I go wxl.. guys... | 19:22 |
| Luka00 | pufff | 19:22 |
| Matt-__ | hey. could anyone maybe help me with troubleshooting why my sound doesnt work... i know its something wrong in the settings and the hardwares good | 19:25 |
| wxl | Matt-__: pastebin `lspci | grep -A 2 -i audio` | 19:27 |
| Matt-__ | umm sry what do u want me to do with that info? :p | 19:29 |
| wxl | !pastebin | Matt-__ | 19:29 |
| ubottu | Matt-__: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 19:29 |
| Matt-__ | oh ok now i get it | 19:32 |
| Matt-__ | http://pastebin.com/YTHTzJh5 | 19:32 |
| wxl | oh bah | 19:32 |
| wxl | i gave you the wrong command | 19:32 |
| wxl | lspci -nnk | grep -A 2 -i audio | 19:33 |
| Matt-__ | http://pastebin.com/U8vAwGnG | 19:33 |
| Matt-__ | oh oops copied a bit too much there | 19:34 |
| wxl | all good | 19:34 |
| wxl | now i want the results of `aplay -L` | 19:34 |
| Matt-__ | http://pastebin.com/SWa7Kb7X | 19:35 |
| wxl | Matt-__: if you aplay some file, does it play? | 19:37 |
| wxl | (btw you can literally play any file but it will be annoying) | 19:38 |
| Matt-__ | yes | 19:40 |
| Matt-__ | playing raw data blablabla | 19:40 |
| Matt-__ | but no soudn | 19:40 |
| wxl | do you have the same results if you kill pulseaudio and just run alsa? `killall -9 pulseaudio` | 19:40 |
| Matt-__ | do i need to run alsa in a command? | 19:41 |
| wxl | nope | 19:41 |
| wxl | pulseaudio is running on top of it | 19:41 |
| Matt-__ | didnt work | 19:42 |
| Matt-__ | aplay filename.mp3 is supposed to play a song in terminal right? | 19:42 |
| wxl | you mean killing pulseaudio didn't work or that it didn't change the effects of aplay | 19:42 |
| wxl | yep | 19:42 |
| wxl | or aplay some-text-file | 19:42 |
| Matt-__ | killin pulseaudio gave no errors | 19:42 |
| Matt-__ | but no effect on aplay | 19:42 |
| wxl | k | 19:42 |
| wxl | to be sure `ps aux | grep -i [p]ulse` returns nothing, right? | 19:43 |
| Matt-__ | if it matters at all.. everything was working fine. but then i wanted to switch from lxde to xfce | 19:43 |
| wxl | oh and so then you come crawling to us XD | 19:43 |
| Matt-__ | and that messed things up | 19:43 |
| Matt-__ | matte 3845 0.4 0.1 335468 10456 ? S<l 22:41 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog | 19:44 |
| wxl | oh it's still running | 19:44 |
| wxl | argh | 19:44 |
| wxl | i did say killall -9 pulseaudio right? | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | ye | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | i did it again | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | and the ps aux | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | now theres no answer | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | so now it should be off | 19:44 |
| wxl | k now try the aplay again | 19:44 |
| Matt-__ | nothing | 19:45 |
| wxl | well ok, at least we removed a variable | 19:45 |
| Matt-__ | but now ps aux is giving the answer again? | 19:45 |
| Matt-__ | is it starting automatically? pulseaudio i mean | 19:45 |
| wxl | ugh hateful hateful pulseaudio | 19:45 |
| wxl | that's what it does | 19:45 |
| Matt-__ | well if its unnecessary i can just uninstall it | 19:46 |
| wxl | try `kill -9 $(pidof pulseaudio)` | 19:46 |
| wxl | it's not a requirement | 19:46 |
| wxl | it's a nice feature | 19:46 |
| wxl | alsa's a little less user friendly | 19:46 |
| Matt-__ | did the pidof command tried aplay nothing changed | 19:47 |
| Matt-__ | im wondering if my default soundcard is just wrong for some reason... but i guess u already thought of that? | 19:47 |
| wxl | ok well suffice it to say, let's assume we don't have a problem with pulseaudio | 19:47 |
| wxl | just give me a screenshot of the main alsamixer window | 19:48 |
| Matt-__ | ...hold on | 19:48 |
| Matt-__ | well this is embarrassing | 19:49 |
| Matt-__ | on alsamixer | 19:49 |
| Matt-__ | i had muted the master | 19:49 |
| Matt-__ | apparently | 19:49 |
| wxl | oh sheesh | 19:49 |
| wxl | XD | 19:49 |
| Matt-__ | i actually thought of trying to unmute with some hotkey but i dont think i have one | 19:50 |
| Matt-__ | thanks for ur help by the way | 19:51 |
| wxl | heh | 19:51 |
| wxl | yeah well maybe you've learned something :) | 19:51 |
| Matt-__ | yeah | 19:51 |
| Matt-__ | the mutebutton mutes sound | 19:51 |
| Matt-__ | taking notes :) | 19:51 |
| wxl | heheheh | 19:52 |
| Matt-__ | on another note.. do u know if screenlets is available for lubuntu? | 19:52 |
| wxl | not sure actually | 19:52 |
| Matt-__ | as in widgets for the desktop.. i tried installing it from terminal but it couldnt find it | 19:53 |
| wxl | well lubuntu is ubuntu | 19:53 |
| wxl | so that may suggest it's not in the repos or not for your version | 19:53 |
| wxl | !info screenlets | 19:53 |
| ubottu | Package screenlets does not exist in xenial | 19:53 |
| wxl | !info screenlets precise | 19:53 |
| ubottu | screenlets (source: screenlets): Widget-like mini-applications for GNOME. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.1.6-0ubuntu1 (precise), package size 404 kB, installed size 1947 kB | 19:53 |
| wxl | case in point | 19:53 |
| wxl | there it is in an older version but not in a newer one | 19:53 |
| wxl | !info screenlets yakkety | 19:54 |
| ubottu | Package screenlets does not exist in yakkety | 19:54 |
| wxl | and not in the development version either | 19:54 |
| wxl | so that's kind of a bad sign XD | 19:54 |
| wxl | oooh | 19:54 |
| wxl | i just found `speaker-test` didn't know about that | 19:54 |
| Matt-__ | i just feel like putting some widgets on my desktop and from what ive googled screenlets is the best option | 19:55 |
| Matt-__ | but if theres no new version i guess it isnt :) | 19:55 |
| wxl | speaker-test -t sine is prettier than pink noise | 19:56 |
| wxl | anywho yeah i'm not sure i know of a good solution to that | 19:56 |
| wxl | i have never felt compelled as such :) | 19:56 |
| Matt-__ | well me neither but im new to linux so im just messing about | 19:57 |
| wxl | understood | 19:57 |
| wxl | being new to linux, sorry for the hardcore terminal crash course. looks like you survived well, though :) | 19:57 |
| Matt-__ | na i like using the terminal | 19:57 |
| wxl | what i can tell you is that kubuntu has that right out of the box. along with lots of other features. not totally lightweight, but very feature rich. | 19:57 |
| Matt-__ | cant remember the commands tho so its a bit timeconsuming :) | 19:58 |
| wxl | heh | 19:58 |
| Luka00 | Hello people on Skype I can send files but I do not see filese send to me why? | 21:32 |
| Luka00 | wxl I tried to send the text file and receives it | 21:33 |
| Luka00 | But I do not receive anything | 21:34 |
| Luka00 | :( | 21:34 |
| wxl | Luka00: http://portforward.com/english/applications/port_forwarding/Skype/default.htm | 21:55 |
| Luka00 | ? | 21:56 |
| wxl | Luka00: instructions on how to ensure you have all the ports properly forwarded on your router | 21:56 |
| Unit193 | Skype is UPnP aware. | 21:56 |
| wxl | Unit193: unfortunately i don't think it's fair to assume UPnP (in modern hardware, sure). | 21:57 |
| Luka00 | you read I can send the files but not receive them | 21:57 |
| wxl | Unit193: also he can send text files but not receive them. strange behavior. | 21:57 |
| Luka00 | i looking | 21:57 |
| Unit193 | wxl: That doesn't change that Skype is UPnP aware, and I'd hope that any router people are using nowdays supports it, that's not new at all. I was thinking more API issues, as in he's talking to a Windows/Mac/Mobile user. | 21:58 |
| Luka00 | who sends the file, it appears that sent it to me but I do not appear anything at | 21:59 |
| Luka00 | at my skype | 21:59 |
| Luka00 | Unit193 so what you suggest? | 22:04 |
| Luka00 | :( i go too tired | 22:10 |
| Luka00 | bye | 22:10 |
