Every time I boot input volume is set to the lowest possible setting... and no-one can hear me.
How can I get this to be at max automatically? (Specific setting visible below)
I'm on 10.10 Everytime I start my iMac, the volume in alsamixer is reset to zero. It takes 8 seconds to fix, but I'd rather not have to do this every time I boot up. Anyone know how to fix this?

View 2 Replies View Relatedi have this weird problem with my pavucontrol. for some reason my input levels go up and down by themselves when i'm talking on skype...mostly up...and it's annoying because i'll be talking normally, but to the people i talk to on skype it sounds like i'm yelling, and i have to have pavucontrol open always to constantly keep the levels under control..i've made a short desktop recording showing what i mean.i didn't include sound, but as you can see, i'm not turning the levels up manually..i just talk and they go up by themselves
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are running an C++ application in AWS EC2 instance (CentOS 5.4) mounted with an EBS Volume (say /mymountpoint). We do more simultaneous writes to the EBS Volume from our application. But at some point we get 'ERROR: Input/output error'. After this, 'ls -l /mymountpoint' command itself fails with the i/o error. The filesystem which we use for the EBS Volume is xfs. I unmounted the drive and done xfs_check and again mounted the drive. Now, everything seems to be working fine. But the issue still persists everytime when we do simultaneous writes.
I believe the following details will be useful,

I'm running Maverick on an HP dv6 laptop. I tried recording a video via VLC with the machine's 'TrueVision' webcam. The result seemed to lack audio, so I had a look in preferences > sound. The input tab had the mute button ticked, so I unticked it and tried adjusting the level (while realising I was probably just configuring the mic port and not the webcam's inbuilt mics).
Then things turned bad: pointer became sluggish, and changes I made to the level slider took ages to be reflected visually on screen. I queued up a pile of clicks on the 'close' button and went away for a while. On return, I was met with a box inviting me to stop a script with some screen-width-long incomprehensible name, which of course I did.
Now the system's in a state which sees windows missing title bars (tho' not menu bars) and (more problematically) the upper and lower bars on the desktop absent. I issued a hibernate command from the terminal in the hope that on waking the system would be 'fixed', but nothing changed. I tried alt-tabbing to access my open applications and close them gracefully but this command is ignored. I have 'zillions' of apps going with unsaved data and am not sure what to try next. I'd be happy just to be able to task switch to each open prog and exit it gracefully then restart. But my knowledge of the command line is such that your help is required =) .
I have an issue with my machine. The volume is 100% on startup, and I need that fixed. I looked around and found THIS on stackoverflow. However I cannot find the rc-default file I need to edit to make that solution work. I'm running Karmic. Anyone else find a solution to this problem?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a Logitech USB headset with microphone at work for phone conferencing, and for some reason whenever I restart Ubuntu (and sometimes seemingly at random times), the settings for the audio input device revert to the defaults (the internal audio hardware).I can always reset it back to the USB headset by going to the sound configuration menu (Preferences -> Sound -> Input), but if any applications that use a microphone are already running, they will need to be restarted in order to make use of the newly configured input device.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this piece of code in my shell script file:
Code:
useradd $UserName; passwd <& $password
I am not able to perform Input Redirection while setting password programatically- without any user intervention.
I think there is a way to do it, but it is just getting slipped from my mind at the moment.
I speeded up boot time significantly. This was accomplished by using chkconfig off to stop unneeded services from starting at boot time and by reinstalling without LVMs
There are now just two remaining things that are slowing down boot time:
1- At boot time, I see the message "Setting up LVM" and after a while "LVM not found" Is there a way to keep Centos from trying to set up LVM? (I am not using LVM, that is why it is not found)
2- I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad and there is a delay at boot time as Centos setting up the built in mouse: "TPPS/2 IBM TRACKPOINT as class /input/input6"
I do not need the trackpoint (I use an USB mouse), Is there a way to disable the built in trackpoint (mouse) so that Centos doesn't spend unnecessary time install it at boot time?
since 9.10.My microphone works, BUT only after I open the 'Sound Preferences' panel, and change the setting under the 'Connector' tab to another selection (any will do), then set it back to 'Microphone 1'.Since this works, I wondered if there is a way to make this happen automatically at every login?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am installing Ubuntu server 10.10 onto a machine with a 1 tb Hard drive. I have had a host of other problems installing but that is for another thread. My question here is that it takes so long to format such a big drive, and I have heard and read that LVM starts with a small partition and expands it as more room is needed. So the installer crashed and started over so this time I decided to choose 'Guided - Use entire disk and set up LVM' instead of just 'Guided - Use Entire Disk'. So it is asking me to set the size of the LVM Volume. Am I setting the size of the initial volume? or am I setting the max size the volume can expand to?
