I have checked a lot of places, but could not find anything that works. PulseAudio Volume Control recognizes it, but I cannot get any sound out. I was using Audacity to test this. I can get my external mic to work in Audacity. When I change the options in Audacity and pick the webcam mic as input, I get no sound input.

I found a set of commands that allow me to use my webcam within skype by running the following Code:
Unfortunately, it looks like I need to type in these lines every time I restart skype. Is there a way to automate the process, so that when I start my computer it executes the code before starting skype?
What this code does? I find it difficult to run commands without knowing what they do. Do you have to be a programmer to know about these commands or should everyone who uses suse know about that.

I have the webcam model Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000 running on my Toshiba Satellite laptop with Debian Sid and kernel 2.6.32.8. I am able to get the program GUCView to work without any problems, but I can not get my webcam to work with either aMSN or Skype (2.1 Beta for Linux). I don't know what to do next, or what my options are at this time. All of my friends/family use MSN and/or Skype with MS Windows or Mac. I am able to get sound/voice to work but no visuals.

My Ubuntu WAS working perfectly. I started to tweak with the eye candy. "Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)." As I was reading some of the forums, I also thought I would give KDE a try and add it to my system. I was experimenting (so I don't know what exactly I was modifying) when at some point I noticed that in the upper right hand corner of my windows (where "minimize window, maximize window and close window buttons" exist), each time I went to click on the close window button, my system froze and I had to do a hard reboot. At that point, I uninstalled all things KDE. Still had the same issue. Then I uninstalled ccsm.
At this point, the maximize, minimize and close buttons were GONE!! I finally figured out, I had to RIGHT CLICK DESKTOP >> CHANGE DESKTOP BACKGROUND >>TAB TO VISUAL EFFECTS >> SELECT "NONE" This returned my system back to a useable state with the max, min and close buttons. Then I tried again to enable the effects, and suddenly my max, min, close buttons again disappeared. I also got a window that was searching for drivers. None could be found. I had to then turn effects off again.
After that, Ive been trying to completely uninstall and reinstall: drivers, KDE, ccsm, hardware drivers (jockey-gtk and jockey-kde). I tried installing each of them seperately, together, and in various combinations and now it seems like the more I try the worse it gets (before, it would search for drivers... now it just tells me "desktop effects could not be enabled" I know there is probably an easy fix to restoring my drivers... but I can't figure it out. It would be easy to just reinstall... but then I gotta go back to my IT person to add the network key at my work and redo all my settings. Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit on a Dell Inspiron 1420 laptop
I just installed Ubuntu today and when I go to Hardware Drivers it tells me that there are no proprietary drivers on this system and doesn't show any for me to activate. Oddly enough when I was running the live CD of Ubuntu I got a list of a few drivers to activate, namely the Broadcom STA Wireless Driver and the NVIDIA Accelerated Graphics Driver (version 185).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI just got a new Acer Aspire One notebook, and first thing I did was get RID of windows 7 starter crap, and put on Ubuntu 10.04. Everything runs smoothly and works well except one thing, Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize I have a battery, it behave's like it would on a desktop. This is really bothering me as I need to know my battery life and whatnot. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? Im completely up to date, and I also tried booting up in the live version of 9.10 and it didnt recognize a battery either, i fear if i cant get this working I might need to use Win7 Starter...I was looking forward to Ubuntu.

Unfortunately I'm having trouble finding proper driver support for the ATI radeon x1200 as described by another poster:
You should still be able to get full 3D support for your hardware by downloading & installing the drivers manually.
This is where it gets complicated, unfortunately.
ATI dropped support for some "older" 3D devices some time back (actually not all that old in many cases - it made a lot of ATI card owners very upset). So I'm not sure which drivers you'd need to download & install to get your 3D hardware working.
The Radeon x1200 device in your notebook is, confusingly, not the same as a desktop Radeon x1200 card.
I am not sure if this is the correct forum but I trust the Administrators can move it if need be. I recently "Frankensteined" a computer together putting Ubuntu 10.10 as the OS. I have a ScanExpress S40 scanner and cannot find drivers for it nor does anything occur when I plug it into the computer. where I can find a generic driver that work.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a CanonMP280 printer and Ubuntu 10.10. Mp280 is not recognized by Ubuntu 10.10. Through 'cybertechhelp' I was very lucky to get the printing drivers to install. So the printer works.
No-one seems to be able to find the 'scanner' drivers and Canon_help is useless. So I must dual-boot with Windows to be able to scan.
Although win7 is a vast improvement on vista. I would much prefer to single-boot with Ubuntu. I tried other Ubuntu and Ubuntu-Based distros, but, the printer-drivers I have, only work in Ubuntu 08.04 - 10.10
I can't seem to find drivers for my wireless adapter, TL-WN722NC, so that it can work on Linux (Ubuntu). I have already emailed the company, TP-Link, and they said that it does not support Linux yet.Is there a way that I might be able to get drivers for it somewhere else?
