A couple of days ago I decided I would try to switch from using Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) to using Debian Squeeze. I have found some success in doing so, however, I cannot for the life of me get any sound from my laptop under Debian even though the audio device (ATI RS690/780 HDMI) works perfectly under Ubuntu.
View 5 RepliesI have been pining over and over through 100s of forum posts to no avail. My problem is that my audio through HDMI does not work fully. I upgraded to 1.0.23 alsa release, which seemed to help, but I cant get anything besides 'Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output' from System-Preferences-Sound. Maybe this is normal, and I will have to rely on xbmc, etc. to provide 5.1 surround sound?

I got my wireless stick to work (Linksys: Wusb600n v2), installed Chromium, VLC and some other stuff... and ye. I want to get Compiz working on my system! I'm not sure that my current drivers can deal with it, thought. I'm not good at Linux and I don't know what should I install (if there is something) so that I can have get better performance from my video-card. I made HardInfo report of my system. What are my options? How can I make the performance better and, maybe, run Compiz?

I have several locations I would want wiped and want to make an sh script to run Wipe and delete the locations. However I would like to have Terminal left open so I can see what it's wiping and once it's finished move on to the next location, is this possible and how would I do it?
The locations are:
/tmp
Firefox cache
flash cache
recently-used (file)
Not sure if there are any more locations and log files that could be entered, Ccleaner used to do all these things for me, the DIY part of Linux is quite fun though,
With 10.04 final i still have the issue with a very distorted screen. Works with RadeonHD driver but performance is utterly crap so no good solution. Also when adding new panels they become invisible and only a logout and login makes them visible around the border. Errors somehow related? How do i file a bug report?

i want to connect my laptop to the lcd using hdmiI have nvidia video card 9200 gs and the driver is installedafter connecting both together nothing happens!do i have to change anything in the system or display settings?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI realise this is an issue that has been covered a lot, one way or another, but at least from what I've been able to find, most of the discussion centres around getting HDMI audio to work. However, I have problems even getting the video to work from my laptop's HDMI output.
I have an HP dv6z-se, with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6550 (1 Gb) video card and using F14/KDE. My problem is that when I go to System Settings/Display/Monitor, Fedora doesn't actually seem to realise my computer even has an HDMI output and only displays options for VGA and my integrated screen.
When I plug it into my LCD screen, sometimes I get a 'No Signal' message and sometimes I get garbled static and a message about unrecognised input and the frequency it's coming at.
I read elsewhere in the forum that someone was able to get video working by editing their xorg.conf file, so I went in and tried to see if I could replicate that, but none of the files in my xorg.conf.d folder had anything related to video outputs (as far as I can tell at this point).
So, i've installed a Debian Jessie (minimal install "gnome-core") and i'm using an ATI radeon R5 230, with libre driver (and non-free firmware) and all works well in stereo.
But i'm looking for surround sound via HDMI (5.1).
My configuration is : PC --- HDMI ---> Pioneer Receiver ---- HDMI ----> Screen
The receiver looks well detected as seen in the eld file :

channel-map = front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,front-center,lfe
description = Surround 5.1 (HDMI)
priority = 2
direction = output
paths-output = hdmi-output-0
It works great (I can see 6 channels in pavucontrol or via "sound" in "settings"), but i got "duplicate stereo" and not real 5.1
If I made a speaker test, all tests makes sounds comes from the Front center speaker (and front R and L with less volume)... but not real 5.1 ....
Can we (and how ?) get 5.1 via HMDI with an ATI and free drivers ?

View 10 Replies View RelatedI can not get any sound through my HDMI cable. Sound through my headphones works fine. But when I want sound to go through the HDMI and play on the monitor, there is no sound.
The HDMI cable is connected to my Radeon R9 270X graphics card.
My OS version is 8.1.
It works on Windows 8.1, so it is definitely an operating system problem.
I'm on Jessie, and use KDE.
Sound keeps coming from laptop's speakers, even when HDMI is connected to an external TV.
I've tried to fix this issue using both Pulse Audio Volume Control and KDE's System Settings -> Multimedia -> Audio and Video Settings. No luck. I've read several topics around, but there are plenty of variables to consider.
I want use HDMI for my TV mais there is no sound I think it s because :

I recently switched from a DVI cable to a HDMI cable (from the motherboard to the monitor) on my desktop. Everything was working flawlessly with the DVI cable, but when i switched to the HDMI cable the resolution became altered in a strange way. According to both the 'Monitor Preferences' and 'NVIDIA X Server Settings' my resolution is 1920x1080. Both the mouse and some icons looks to be in that resolution. However, the gnome panels, the rest of the icons, toolbars, etc. are huge and in a low resolution. While using Iceweasel, the top gnome panel and the Iceweasel toolbars take up half my screen! I can't find a way to alter the size of these since my resolution is set to maximum. I thought it might be a problem with gnome, so I tried Fluxbox, but the same problems were there. Have anybody else come across this, or perhaps know of a solution?

I am new to using debian and have decided to build a Haswell-based i5 NUC (D54250WYK) to run Kodi. I have everything running smoothly until I realised that there is no audio.
I ran the aplay -l command and it only showed

A lot of people recommend the following commands :
-sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install oem-audio-hda-daily-dkms
and then reboot the device, but when ever i try and run it, the last step i get the "E: Unable to locate package oem-audio-hda-dkms" error.
I noticed that Debian 8 has a significant bug related to detecting presence of display(s). Today, I woke my computer from sleep while the LCD monitor was unplugged from power (the monitor is connected via DVI) then I powered the monitor but nothing was displayed. Next, I connected another monitor via HDMI and both screens started working. However after disconnecting HDMI cable from the second monitor the first one with DVI stopped showing anything. The conclusion of this situation is that HDMI monitor must be connected all the time.
I thought that this is caused by graphics driver, but I experienced the problem on different machines, one with nvidia driver and DVI, and the second with default free driver and DisplayPort.
I just checked that this is related to KDE. After switching to console using ctrl+alt+f1 the screen turns on, but when I am going back via ctrl+alt+f7 the screen disappears.
I would like my laptop to automatically switch to HDMI (both video and audio) when I plug a HDMI cable in. Running Jessie with Xfce, and I hear that KDE already does this...? I would prefer to stay with Xfce though, and have tried making a UDEV rule and script, taken from the last part of this thread: [URL] ....
At first it worked perfectly, but now for some reason, only Chromium gets resized when I plug/unplug the cable. HDMI output is correctly activated upon cable insertion, but when taking the cable out again, the desktop resolution remains the same (larger than my laptop resolution), so the panels etc. are invisible.
Setup:
I'm using i386 Jessie Debian, have an i7 Intel processor and Gtx 745 4gb NVidia GPU.
I am running with nomodeset due to blurring issue but issue occured without nomodeset too.
Problem:
When I start Debian with just a monitor in the HDMI slot it doesn't recognize the monitor and keeps the monitor at 1024x768.
When I start Debian with monitor in both DVI and HDMI slot it only activates the DVI monitor (with proper resolution). PC has no VGA I have no DP cable.

Which is my dvi monitor, no other screens detected. Is there any way to get the HDMI to run properly?
My monitor (Dell U2412M) has a VGA port, a display port and a DVI port. I can connect it to my laptop with VGA, no problem, but I'd rather use one of the other ports. I have a HDMI-to-DVI cable, so I tried that. That didn't work with my laptop, so I tested this HDMI-to-DVI cable with my raspberry pi, and that works perfectly. So, the problem is probably not the cable and not the DVI port on the monitor.
What happens when I plug the HDMI-to-DVI cable into my laptop is a bit weird. It's not a blank screen or anything, but part of the messages I see during boot. The last lines on the screen (the others relate to stuff that is probably not relevant for this issue), are these:
Code:

I have had quite a bit of trouble with my GPU on this laptop, and as far as I can tell, the laptop does not use the nvidia card but rather has defaulted to the on board intel chip. Could these issues be connected?
I have Audio and Video over HDMI separately, but when I try to watch a movie, I just have Video.NVIDIA HDMI is my default, I'm using "Debian lenny amd64" and kernel is "2.6.32-trunk" on "Studio XPS 13" with "KDE 4.3".

I've been having problems with my hdmi output not working since I first installed debian on my laptop(probably 2 years now). The reason the output wasn't working is because I can't turn my onboard graphics off in my bios. So I had a bright idea, why don't I just blacklist the i915 driver?
So I did, I updated the initramfs and restarted my computer. It started up showed the startup sequence on my laptop screen, my dell monitor (vga output) and on the tv (hdmi output) but then the start up sequence froze on the hdmi output while the other 2 screens continued to work. I do lspci -v and the i915 driver still shows up for the vga controller.
I don't have the nvidia drivers setup and I don't have an xorg.conf setup at the moment because I get the no screens error when I do. What should I do?
previous stuff : [URL] .... <--- I have no clue how I got the hdmi output working when I posted that thread.
