Ubuntu :: Unable To Choose System Sound - Login Windows
May 21, 2010
I am having a problem with my Lucid L. I installed Mac4Lin and when trying to change login window, grub window, splash screen, or even system sounds, I simply don't have the option.
I go to the application like System-Preferences-Sounds and simply don't have the option to change the system sounds, all I have is 5 tabs without that option.
Login widows is the same thing, I can only choose if I want a login sound or not and that's all, I can't even choose to make auto login since it does not give a user as option.
I tryed also with art manager, but the "Install" button is greyed, and startupmanager does not give me any of those options too.

as audacity comes without MP3 support I tried to compile audacity for Fedora 13 myself. The compilation works fine (configure/make/make install) but there is no sound system to choose at preferences/devives/host.
Does anyone ahve an idea what went wrong with compilation or where I can finde rpm files including MP3 support?

I recently installed Ubuntu in my PC, without uninstalling windows coz it`s not really mine, its my father`s. When he saw the boot (like a month later, he REALLY uses the PC...) he went crazy and instantly ordered me to "uninstall that thing". Of course i`m not stupid to do that after a month of seeing how Ubuntu is... I want to know if/how can I make the pc start on windows auto, without prompting by showing the choose system screen, and when i open boot menu (i don`t remember, but i think its F-eight) i have both choices, so I can keep Linux without him knowing.

I hear no login sound when I login to my ubuntu. I checked at startup applications and found GNOME login sound is enabled. The command used there is
Code:
/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login"
.
Its not only this, but there is no other sounds enabled - for mouse clicks etc

For some reason I am no longer able to log into my Ubuntu 9.10 system. I get to enter the password and it accepts it, starts to log me in but then throws me back to the login screen again without even a glimpse of the desktop. What could be causing this? Everything was working fine yesterday and I haven't made any changes to the OS.

I have recently re-installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop and have encountered an unusual error. It boots up fine, but when I get to the login screen, it just shows the Ubuntu logo, and underneath my computer name with no options for choosing which user to login as. I have tried going into recovery, but it just stops loading.
If needed I can try to upload an image of what the window looks like

Unable to get any sound out of the system from anywhere, not from movies or inputs on either Yahoo or firefox, and not from music cd's inserted into the cd players?? Had good sound a few days ago?? Looked at all things concerning sound within the system and unable to find anything that looks like it may be causing a problem. Upgraded Rhythmbox, also Firefox, no help.

I'm new to linux, and I'm just trying to learn OpenSUSE. I just installed it and I have a few quick questions. #1 I accidentally installed the "OpenSUSE Installer (LOCAL)" on Windows 7, so now I get the option to choose windows or the installer at the windows boot screen. I ended up just installing OpenSUSE on a completely different HD (my original intent) from a burned DVD, so this installer is useless and I don't know how to remove it.
#2 After installing opensuse on my second HD, the boot screen is now SUSE's instead of Windows, and I can choose suse's desktop, the suse failsafe, windows 1, and windows 2. Windows 1 brings me to the windows boot screen with the choice i mentioned above (windows or the local installer i accidentally installed), and windows 2 i assume is my second windows partition which is just my SWAP file, and selecting it does nothing (which would make sense if thats all it is).
My question here is how do I make it so my default boot screen is the windows one with an option between windows 7 or suse? Or would this require reinstalling the system? If it does and its simple enough to explain please do I wouldnt mind removing it and reinstalling at this point, I would just wipe my whole second HD from windows.
#3 I have a netgear adapter. unfortunitly i'm not at home right now and I don't remember the model, so I'll provide that this evening if necessary. What I do know is they do not have a driver for linux. I've found ACX100, but I didn't find my netgear adapter listed on their website. I also found NDISWrapper, but thats for XP and I still don't know if that'll work. I will of course try both unless someone here has a better solution. If anyone knows anything that will work on any netgear adapter for linux please let me know, if not then I'll provide the model later on.

I have installed Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit on my new desktop. After installation all gone well.
The initial upgrades after fresh installation also ran well and I was able to reboot and use the system successfully.This was before three-days.Yesterday night I ran again the Update Manager and installed the available (4-5) updates and then I installed Sun-Java-JDK using Synaptic Package Manager using the packages from the canonical partners.
After installation was done I shut down the system and in the morning when
I restarted the system the login screen is coming up but on entering the login credentials a black screen with some text(unable to see the text) flashes and returns me back to login screen.I tried logging in with both normal and admin type users.But admin type user too encounters the same problem.
I have partitioned my 500GB into 5 partitions and there is sufficient data on each partition.
I assume fresh installation would fix it and the data on logical partitions would be intact but doing this re-installation would require me to install the updates again and do all the settings I did till now again.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and set up ALSA and got my DS working perfectly.I booted back into Windows with the intention of playing some BC2, and discovered anytime sound tries to play, it's all screwed (I can still make out some of what is being said but it's pretty bad). Naturally my first reaction would be to go into the Xonar audio center, which I did, and made sure nothing was wrong there. I changed settings around (sample rate and changing from headphone to 2 channel) but nothing worked. Turned off the D3SD GX and that didn't work either. Removed the drivers, rebooted, reinstalled, rebooted. No change.
One thing I noticed is under the Windows sound control panel it doesn't show I'm playing anything when I am. However when I go into advanced and use the test option (and set it to the highest option available) it sounds fine.Under Ubuntu it also sounds fine. I've got volume set to around 50% in Ubuntu. I noticed when I muted it under Ubuntu and rebooted it was muted under Windows, hence my thought that the volume settings were messing things up. Didn't work though.Pulled the card out and left it out for a few minutes worked. Quite strange.

Karmic 9.10 latest updates
Nvidia GeForce 6150 LE
Nvidia driver 185.18.36
Monitor Acer P205H - 1600x900 native
I can't configure the monitor. and the display.
I've tried with both the built in display configure and the Nvidia one. Can't choose 1600x900 on either one.
I either can't see all the display on the monitor, or it takes on some weird panning mode and looks like the display is about 2500x1500 or something.
Here's the xorg.conf file. Clearly it does not see the new monitor and the modes are wrong. These settings are for the previous monitor. How Can I fix this so that my display works properly? Thanks.

I recently upgraded to the newest version of Ubuntu. I dual boot with Windows 7.
All was going fine the first few times I used my system after the upgrade but I have now run into a serious problem. I'm not that technical so will explain this as best i can.
Basically, when I switch my computer on, I can not get to the screen that allows me to choose an operating system. Before it gets there it just restarts.
I guess its a problem with the GNU GRUB software. It just seems like the computer can't find it and restarts itself. So I can't get into either Ubuntu or Windows at the moment.

I'm still to install Linux (waiting for a replacement of a bad DIMM) on my new box. It will probably be CentOS, following 'Rubberman's recommendation in forum/coffee-lounge/166195-distro-recommendation-development-use.html .
I assume (as I haven't installed Linux before) there could be a choice of file systems. Is there any recommendation on what I should/could use ?

I am using the latest version ubuntu desktop 10.04 LTS. I am trying to add printers attached to a Windows 7 system. I can see the Windows system but I can't see the attached printer. I log on as required after I change the domain to the appropriate workgroup that the Windows system belongs to. The log-in seems to be unsuccessful. Do I need to change the ubuntu desktop system to the same workgroup? If I do, please tell me where I can change?
I've just checked. I don't seem to be able to access any shares on any Windows systems on the network including the Windows system on the same computer where this ubuntu is installed. I installed ubuntu using wubi, so it is an application inside Windows system.

I've been using Ubuntu for 6 years now as my major OS, dual booting with Windows. (just in case...)
I am now ready to completely abandon Windows as all the music editing and video creation tools I could not live without are available in Ubuntu and working great!
QUESTION: If I format the C: Windows partition, will I still have the GRUB to choose Ubuntu from? (I'd like to get rid of GRUB altogether to speed up my boot time)
