[04:03] <Wiegand92> I've unpackaged it on my desktop, but cant find the proper command to install it this way
[04:48] <xangua> Transferred the proper driver meaning?
[04:48] <xangua> What file is this?
[05:02] <Wiegand92> ah sorry just noticed this, I need the bcmwl driver for my imac wifi

[23:34] <xubuntu-user> Hi everybody
[23:34] <knome> hello
[23:34] <xubuntu-user> Is somebody get "issues" with alsamixer ?...
[23:35] <xubuntu-user> I explain myself
[23:35] <knome> why are you not using pavucontrol?
[23:35] <xubuntu-user> Yes I get it
[23:35] <xubuntu-user> Do I have to uninstall alsamixer ?
[23:35] <knome> why would you?
[23:36] <xubuntu-user> Don't know...
[23:36] <knome> pavucontrol is installed by default on xubuntu
[23:36] <xubuntu-user> Yes
[23:36] <knome> it's the default volume control
[23:36] <knome> is there a reason why you can't use that?
[23:36] <xubuntu-user> But... Is it normal when I start my laptop, I don't get sound in the speaker by defaut ?
[23:37] <knome> not necessarily, but how is that related to alsamixer?
[23:38] <xubuntu-user> To get sound through the speaker, I have to unmute "Headphone"
[23:38] <xubuntu-user> in alsamixer
[23:39] <knome> so could you unmute it in pavucontrol?
[23:40] <knome> i'm asking this to figure out if it's related to alsamixer at all or not
[23:40] <xubuntu-user> No I can't in pavucontrol
[23:41] <xubuntu-user> Only in alsamixer
[23:41] <knome> okay, and which xubuntu version are you using?
[23:41] <xubuntu-user> I'm using 16.04
[23:42] <xubuntu-user> xenial
[23:42] <xubuntu-user> When I get sound through speakers, if i plug my headphone in... I get sound through headphones, but if I plug out... There's no sound :(
[23:43] <xubuntu-user> I've to run alsamixer to unmuted it
[23:43] <xubuntu-user> I was asking me if it was normal
[23:43] <xubuntu-user> Or a bug
[23:44] <knome> how did you figure out you can do that from alsamixer?
[23:44] <xubuntu-user> yes
[23:45] <knome> that answer didn't make sense...
[23:45] <knome> did you read the question?
[23:45] <xubuntu-user> cause when I plug out my headphone, "headphone" in alsamixer give me 00 and MM (mute)
[23:45] <knome> so how did you figure alsamixer shows you that?
[23:46] <xubuntu-user> sorry
[23:46] <xubuntu-user> I read this on faq
[23:46] <knome> okay
[23:48] <xubuntu-user> Is there anybody that have this "problem" ?
[23:50] <xubuntu-user> Is it possible that's related to my sound card ?
[23:50] <knome> laptop?
[23:51] <knome> it's possibly a hardware-related issue, yes
[23:51] <xubuntu-user> yes
[23:51] <xubuntu-user> laptop
[23:52] <xubuntu-user> Ok
[23:53] <xubuntu-user> I just fed up to do it manually
[23:55] <xubuntu-user> Well... I believe I will forced to do it like this :(
[23:57] <knome> have you filed a bug?
[23:57] <xubuntu-user> yes
[23:57] <xubuntu-user> No
[23:57] <knome> sigh
[23:58] <xubuntu-user> Sorry yes
