Scungiellinevermind, figured it out13:08

Scungielliwhat can I do?15:22
Scungielliit's annoying15:22
leszekScungielli: check autostart apps first15:36
leszekand then the panel settings15:36
Scungiellihow do I check autostart apps?15:36
leszekpreferences -> lxsession -> autostart15:38
Scungielligotcha, but I dunno what that icon is, so I dunno which to disable15:38

Scungiellileszek - ok so its the Dropbox icon.  I still want the Dropbox program to autostart, but I don't need it showing in the system tray.  so how do I disable the indicator icon?  especially since its not displaying correctly anyways16:04
leszekScungielli: hmm... its proprietary not sure. take a look at the settings of dropbox16:05
ScungielliI'm running an old laptop.  Intel Core2 T5500 @ 1.66GHZ with 2gb RAM.   With this spec machine, should I run Lubuntu or Ubuntu?18:11
wxlScungielli: probably either, but Lubuntu will better use your resources.18:11
Scungielliwould ubuntu be sluggish?18:12
wxlmore sluggish.18:12

makarovHi, i have installed lubuntu but my sound didn't work, i didn't change anything but when I plug my headphones the sound works, how can i solve this?22:00
maka145Hi, I have installed Lubuntu yesterday but my sound didn't work, i didn't change anything but the headphones work fine, what can I do to solve this?22:04
tsimonq2maka145: Is everything plugged in interally?22:05
tsimonq2maka145: What updates have you installed recently?22:05
wxlmaka145: what version?22:05
tsimonq2Oh, good idea too ^22:06
maka145I just installed the latest updates automatically, yes, everything is pluged.22:07
wxlwhich version of lubuntu?22:07
maka145I'm using the 16.10 version22:07
wxlok so pulse. harumph.22:07
maka14516.1022:08
wxlwhat chip, maka145? and what kernel module? you can find this with `lspci -nnk`22:08
maka145wait a minute22:09
maka145snd_hda_intel22:12
maka145if that is what are you asking22:12
wxlthe chip being used is what, 10de:0be3?22:13
maka1451179:ff1022:13
wxlyou could try installing pavucontrol and see if there's anything funky there22:14
maka145already did that, everything is unmuted. Output device is ok, everything should be fine22:16
wxlwill alsamixer open?22:16
maka145it opens normally, only beep is set up to zero22:18
maka145speakers are on maximum22:18
wxlacross all the sound cards? you can see them all with `aplay -l`22:18
maka145there is only one sound cards there, Intel [HDA Intel]22:20
maka145i selected it in alsamixer pressing F6 but it didn't work22:21
wxland that's confirmed with `aplay -l` correct?22:21
maka145yes, it shows board 0 : Intel HDA, device 0: ALC268 Analog22:23
wxlok22:23
wxlbear with me. i odn't have this hardware but i've hard of others having this problem22:23
maka145Thats weird, sound was fine using Windows 7(probably because realtek drivers), but with lubuntu i've reinstalled twice and it didn't work, but headphones work, which is fine for the moment at least22:26
wxlthat's not weird22:26
wxlcommercial entities rarely care about open source, so they're left to reverse engineer drivers22:26
wxllooking at https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=803343&p=5017453#post5017453 it's unclear if ALC268 is supported22:27
maka145thats sad, i liked this distro a lot22:29
wxlwhat laptop is this, maka145 ?22:31
maka145an old Toshiba Satellite A205 which i didn't use for a long time22:32
wxlok so let's see if there's anything funky happening with the driver22:33
wxltry:22:33
wxlsudo modprobe -r snd_hda_intel # unloads the driver22:33
wxlsudo modprobe snd_hda_intel #loads the driver22:33
wxlgrep snd_hda_intel /var/log/dmesg # checks to see any output related to the driver22:34
maka145i've downloaded realtek driver for linux22:37
maka145and in the readme.txt it says22:37
maka145ALC268 is supported22:37
maka145should i try later?22:37
wxlunfortunately, that's not necessarily something well supported by the community. there's no way they could support it. so, you could try that, but you'd probably need ot consult realtek about that.22:38
maka145ok, i'll try your solution first22:40
wxlmine wasn't a solution but a diagnostic measure22:41
maka145it says22:43
maka145"Module snd_hda_intel is in use"22:44
wxltry killing pulseaudio and alsa first22:44
maka145on the last command22:48
maka145it says "file or directory not found"22:48
wxltry just using `dmesg | grep snd_hda_intel`22:48
maka145sorry22:53
maka145just run out of batery22:54
maka145i typed now22:54
maka145there is a lot of text22:54
wxlyou can output it to a pastebin22:54
