I always keep my headphones as well as my 2.1 speakers connected simultaneously on my PC (Gigabyte motherboard). Both these audio devices work fine simultaneously on my Windows 7, but in Ubuntu, only my headphones work, speakers don't work at all. I tried changing some settings in SOUND PREFERENCES as well as ALSA SOUND MIXER, but not luck so far.
View 1 RepliesI am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx. I am using the laptop to play video files and view it on TV using HDMI output. No problems. Requirement: to play simultaneously a different media file and be able to listen through say headphone / laptop speakers. While a movie audio is only heard on TV, other audio is heard only on laptop speaker.

Under Windows, is it possible to have some sort of virtual device that would forward an audio stream to both sound cards? If this can't be easily done under Windows, a solution for Linux is also fine. lternatively, if the 2 speakers are connected to different channels of a sound card, is there any vendor-independent way to duplicate audio to both channels?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a co-worker who is trying to connect multiple devices to his wireless router - Xbox, Wii, TV, Dishnetwork box, etc. Not all of the devices are wireless however. He's had several thoughts on how to get this done and I know very little about this kind of thing so I thought I'd ask some of you.
His first thought was to buy a multi port bridge, but he doesn't like any of the ones he's seen so far.The other thought was to connect all of the devices to a switch and then use a single bridge, but he isn't sure if this would work.
I want to output two applications one to a headphone and another to the regular speakers, what app can I use?? it would be better if I don't have to move from audio player, I tried with alsa sound mixer but for some readon it doesn't list the speakers
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some reason on any application that uses sound, but doesn't allow me to specify the input/output audio devices I don't get anything. I want all audio to go to my USB Headset, and not the onboard soundcard. To start off with, here's alsamixer: Here's a screenshot from Mumble (voice chat) that shows that I've set the USB headset device in there, and it works 100% fine on Mumble.

As you can see from the alsa-base.conf above I've tried specifying snd_usb_audio as the default device, but it's not working.
I am find myself in need of building what amounts to 3 ip networks on 1 physical lan.
first LAN is another companies network on the 10.0.0.0 network a mix of pc's and equipment
second is LAN new company network 192.168.168.0/24
third network is an ip phone system for both i would like to use 192.168.200.0/24
i am hoping to use the same dhcp server to do this, assigning address to the old company's 10. network via mac address reservation.
I have this intra net server project going on and now I moved to 10.04 however there are still some things that I would like to see clarification and instructions on. I am interested to set up multiple parallel websites for my apache server, however I am not sure how to do this exactly. Now I have solid address rivera.wippies.net and port 80 redirecting to my server. What I would like to get done is that I get multiple independent of each other websites for my server I was thinking of making websites like this
/var/www/site1 (which would be as rivera.wippies.net)
/var/www/site2 (which would be as rivera.wippies.net/othersite)
/var/www/site3 (which would be rivera.wippies.net/secondothersite)
etc, so that I have multiple "individual" websties for my server. Requirements would be that each of these websites could have SSL encryption as needed available too, since some of the website could have confidential information.
I need to create a single line of output from multiple and variable lines of input in a Linux bash shell script.
My input file looks like this:

So, the output file should look like:

My question is - how do print each of the elements of an array in one record - i.e. what do I put in place of howdoiprintarray?
Is it possible to output one playback stream to multiple devices simultaneously with the current PulseAudio / Phonon setup? The PulseAudio mixer only has radio buttons to choose one device per playback stream. I believe the hardware is capable of this, since I remember doing that before we had PulseAudio. How can I duplicate an audio stream?
Here's one application scenario: I am travelling with my family, all crammed in small hotel room. My wife and me want to watch a movie on my laptop without waking up our kids. I just happen to have one analogue headphone available and one wireless USB headset with me. (Of course, the low tech solution is to bring an 3,5mm Y-cable to attach two analogue headsets, but I would really love to use the USB headset together with the analogue one.)
Another similar thing that bugs me is that my laptop's built-in speakers now always seem dead when an analogue headphone is plugged in. This is mostly what one wants, and before PulseAudio, one had to manually switch them off which was generally annoying. However, the downside is for example with notifications.
For example, before PulseAudio, I could configure Skype to always ring over the laptop's built-in speakers, regardless of whether the analogue headphones were plugged in. This is no longer possible, since PulseAudio does not distinguish between built-in speakers and built-in analogue port any more, while old Alsa did. So in my office, where some analogue headphones are plugged into the docking station, I never hear Skype ringing if I don't wear the headphones.
jack uses 2 ports for input and 2 for output. I have a SoundBlaster 5.1vx card, and I would like to use a "line-out" plug for monitoring. But when I try to get jack to reserve four extra outputs by using the switch "-o 4", it gives me an error.

At the beginning, sound wasn't working, so I promoted the Intel audio device to the top of the list and then I got audio.
Next login, the system complained that there were unmanaged audio devices and I chose to keep the configuration (or something like that...).
However, now only the "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" device is listed and I have no sound again

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are working on a project to create a display wall of 8 monitors arranged as 2 high by 4 wide. Each monitor is connected to a single machine and all machines are networked with a master machine with its own, seperate monitor.
Our goal is to get the 8 machines to share a single desktop, with the master machine acting as the server. We have looked at using Xinerama or NMM, but we are unsure about how to get started configuring the multi-machine, multi-head display.
Is possible to have two identical sound card outputs? For example, is I want to use two headphones at the same time.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy band play with a backing track running out of my laptop. We have a stereo mix of the backing track running into the PA system, plus another stereo mix of the backing track with a metronome running into headphones worn by our drummer. This means that the laptop is outputting 4 audio channels simultaneously. The catch is, i only have a two channel USB audio device, in addition to the two channel built-in soundcard. The trick i found to accomplishing what i desire within Windows was relatively simple - i used the ASIO4ALL driver, which effectively allowed me to combine the outputs into one "virtual" ASIO audio device which has 4 output channels, which i could then send audio to using my digital audio workstation software (REAPER). Luckily this has worked perfectly every time we've done it on stage, however at rehearsals it has on occasion failed as Windows has encountered errors, etc. Naturally it would be devastating for this to happen on stage, and so i've decided to try Linux out, as it has the reputation of being extremely stable (i've heard stories about machines being switched on for years without crashing).
Now, i've tried for a couple of days to get this to work, messing around with JACK, ALSA, and PortAudio, and using a range of programs such as Qtractor, Ardour, and MusE; however, i've only ever been able to get stereo audio to come out of one device at a time. I do however know that it is possible to do what i want, because i found a little DJ application which allowed me to set a different audio device to be in "headphones", whilst my other audio device outputs the currently playing track.
I'm by no means a proficient Linux user, however if something has to be done through a Terminal, with adequate instructions i'm sure i could do it. What i'm after though really, is a simple and clear guide to accomplishing what i want, which to recap is:
A to simultaneously output audio to two separate audio devices at once from within the same program.
I've an older PC, and I would like to use it with Lubuntu, because it's much faster than Ubuntu or Win XP (excuse me for the comparison). The only thing that prevents me from using Lubuntu is that I can't find any application to switch the sound card!
How can I switch audio devices from Lubuntu?
I have an Ubuntu install on an 8Gb SDHC Card, customized for my Toshiba NB205. It took quite a bit to get sound and BT working, but now it's fine. Just out of curiousity, I used this same SDHC Card to boot my Dell D610 -- it booted, and sound and WiFi worked fine. I was surprised. There was a single error message after the desktop appeared, but I didn't record it.
I am now wondering: is it practical to use a single USB installation with multiple devices? I can imagine a number of complications, but was surprised that my attempt worked on two very different hardware platforms. There was discussion, when pendrives first appeared, of being able to use one to boot any PC to your own USB-based OS, bypassing any other OS installed on the PC.
Does anyone know how I can force single channel sound output? I'm deaf in one ear and want to mix the channels (especially when I need to use headphones).v

The problem is, after I load ath9k_htc - iwconfig does not show the new USB device (the TL-WN422G - wlan1 / ath0 / whatever), but only the old one (wlan0 - Broadcom, checked by MAC).
I tried this USB device (TL-WN422G) on my other computer that has PCI wireless card in it, and they both worked just fine together after I pluged it in... I get wlan0 (Ralink) and wlan1 (TL-WN422G). Is it some kind of a problem for the laptop that both devices are recognized as USB? How do I make wlan1 appear on my laptop?
