Just got a new Thinkpad W510 at work. It has a combined headphones & mic connector. Unfortunately, I cannot find an adapter for my regular headset with separate headphone & mic jacks. So I have to revert to using a USB Soundcard Adapter that came with the headset. Unfortunately I am running into problems with this too.
Code:
I'm not sure what happened, I enabled Nvidia support and all of sudden the internal layout of windows, look..well old-school, like they did back 10 years ago. The screen-shot explains all. I'm sure this is just a setting SOMEWHERE in Gnome but I'd be danged if I can find it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI can't get sound to work and am not sure how to trouble shoot. The sound DOES work when first booting, and I can make it play a test beep with the sound config app. But I cannot get sound from any other application. One possibly relevant fact is that I see a lot of I/O errors early in the boot process, but they flash by quickly so I cannot quote them.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI use an IBM Thinkpad T30 with an ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 graphics card as my work machine, mostly at a desk, using a docking station to link it into a monitor. I upgraded to Lucid last weekend. When using the integral screen on the laptop the graphics have been fine, but when using a monitor I initially got some very poor contrast, brightness and gamma output, described in this bug.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lu...ux/+bug/548709
According to the advice in that bug report, I upgraded the kernel, with Kernelcheck automatically updating me to 2.6.35-candela. Now, rather than poor graphics with the monitor it just hangs on the splash screen, displaying the words Ubuntu with the dots underneath.
Reading around, when similar problems have been seen in previous versions of Ubuntu it has been a graphics issue, which fits. One piece of advice I've seen quite commonly is to remove the "quiet splash" from grub, which I've tried but doesn't work. I am tempted to try and work through the different grub commands these guys used to tackle a similar problem with the live CD:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1472054
But am a bit reticent as I don't know what they all do.
As an aside, the 2.6.35-candela kernel brings up a bunch of errors on boot, described at the link below, but reading that thread they don't look like they would cause my problem:

I've installed a clean Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx on my ThinkPad T61, and everything seems to be OK, but I am unable to get any sound output at all (internal speakers and external audio).
No system sounds, no sound from Movie Player, Rythmbox, Sound Recorder.
On my previous Ubuntu 9.04 and 9.10 I had no problems with sound (as far as I can recall).
Any hints to what I should do to try to get sound output?

I recently got a lenovo w510 laptop and I installed openSUSE 11.3 KDE on it. the wireless works fine at home (802.11g WPA2) when I go to work I have tried to set up the wifi for the 802.1X PEAP network but it doesn't look like it even tries to connect.
The work network set up is as follows. non-brodcasting SSID (do I need to tell network manager of this? I manually enter the SSID no problem)
Dynamic WEP 802.1X
PEAP
blank anonymous identity
no CA cert (I suspect this might be the problem)
PEAP v 1
MSCHAPv2
I have verified my username and pw several times, as well as the SSID. Just yesterday I helped a co-worker get on the network under ubuntu and it worked like a charm.
The Hardware profile displays the wifi card as a "WiFi Link 6000 Series" It is an intel card.
Installed Ubuntu today but i cannot get any sound from my pci soundcard the only sound i get is through the inbuilt sound in my motherbaord. Is there a way I can get linux to play sound through the soundcard instead? I have looked for driversasus xonar) but there appears to be no such thing for linux.
View 7 Replies View RelatedAn application I am trying to get going on 9.10 takes over my soundcard whenever I run it. I hear a small pop from the speakers and then no application can play sound after that.
The program is: springlobby
My soundcard is: Onboard sound (Asus M4N68T-M motherboard)
I have posted on the application's forum but it seems most of the posters are developers and the advice goes a bit over my head.
Quote: old versions of SL uses SDL audio to access the sound card, make sure SDL audio is set to use alsa+dmix or pulseaudio, if it's set to OSS or alsa with direct card access, it will lock the sound card
if it's a recent version, everything i said applies instead for openal.I have removed pulseaudio but this is not the cause of my problem as it was the same before removal.full thread is here: http:[url]....
I've just bought a very cheap USB sound device as the jacks built into my laptop are practically dead. I bought it as I'd googled around and seen that other people have it working in linux. Anyway, I plug it in and am able to select "USB AUDIO (ALSA)" from the xfce4-mixer. However, I don't get any sound from any applications.
Here is my aplay -l output:

I have a laptop and a desktop computer. The thing is, I would like to see movies on the laptop from the stationarys hard drive to watch movies and also listen to music (Spotify) from speakers that are connected to the desktop but I don't really know how to solve it.

I was, untill very recently, using ubuntu 10.10, and have just upgraded. In Ubuntu 10.10, I was easily able to record sound from my sound card in audacity. For whatever reason, since upgrading I have been unable to do so. I have no problem recording sound from my laptop's microphone, but can't seem to find an option to record from the sound card. I believe it's the same version of Audacity, so all I can assume is that it's an Ubuntu issue.

I have just installed a Xonar dg onto Ubuntu10.10The MBoard is also Asus with a built in card that works ok. The AlSA site says it may work (although no drivers for this are specific) as it uses a CM 18786 chip & I believe snd-cmipci contains the driver for this.My motherboard has its own driver built in, I can turn this of in the BIOS.Is their an easy install/driver option with Ubuntu 10.10?

I have an MSI S420 with a realtek alc883 onboard. I upgraded from ubutu 8.04 to 10.4 recently, The sound worked in 8.04 although the mic did't work and the same thing in 8.10 (i went through all upgrades) it stopped working at all in 9.04 onwards.
If i did Lspci -v it did say the name of my card, ( I unmuted all in alsamixer and got the codecs but even a test soud won't work) I also dowloaded a driver from Realtek itself, that didn't work.
Then I edited alsabace.conf some more. I tried every one that could possily be it at [URL] including all that said MSI.
I then tried Lordraidens comprehensive sound guide from step 1 to step 5, I used the module-assistant and istalled a driver that was called "hda-realtek-codec" or so. It was the only appropriate one on the list.
I also run into someoe with thesame problem. [URL]
i think ill give up and use the 8.10 that is still on a other partition
I have a SteelSeries Siberia USB soundcard. I'd like to get pulseaudio to automatically recognize it and switch to it when I plug it in.
Currently I have to go alsamixer in terminal, select the device and turn it up (It's always at zero when I plug it in). When I do this I can't control the volume with the buttons on my laptop, i have to either control the volume in the media player or move it up and down in alsamixer.
I'm having a rather peculiar problem with sound in Ubuntu 10.04. Specifically, every time I reboot I run through a cycle of sorts:
A). Sound is working fine. Reboot
B). No sound. "aplay -l" returns "no card found". Additionally, the hibernate and suspend buttons are missing from the shutdown menu and restart acts as log out, immediately returning me to the log in screen (sudo reboot in console works). I try to fix the problem by the following commands:
Code:
$sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
$sudo apt-get install linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils
$sudo reboot
C). After rebooting sound works normally again and I get the following:

I have "linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic" installed. I have been experiencing problems with audio since I bought this M/B, but with 9.10 things were stable and with my previous 10.04 installation bearable. Now, however, I practically can't work. I have to run the aforementioned routine every time I reboot. Additionally, I don't if it is relevant, but the problems started after I installed the audio drivers in Windows (another royal mess, but at least now it's stable and it works)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI own an external usb soundcard: Creative Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1. After some tweaking around Multimedia Settings, (K)Ubuntu 9.10 successfully detected the card. I can now use it.
However, setting the sound level in KMixer does not work at all - KMixer now only contains a Microphone channel. Using hotkeys, I can still turn volume from 0 to 100%, but that has no effect on the volume produced by the soundcard. The sound card comes with a sound joggle, but turning it left or right has no effect whatsoever on the volume level.
Is there a way to solve either of these issues? p.s. Also, the card came with a Windows app and driver cd.
I'm not too experienced on Ubuntu, but I'm trying to get a Delta 1010LT working on Ubuntu 10.04 minimal install (no gnome, only console).I can see the board detected using lspci, but looking at dmesg output I get the following:
Code:

if a change the model to delta1010 the driver is loaded correctly, but I assume there are major differences between the two boards so I don't get audio out, even if I unmute everything using alsamixer.Motherboard is an Intel D510MO with onboard audio disabled.
my onboard soundcard (hda-intel ALC662) is not recognized in my new computer. It works fine with other distros, but ubuntu just does not seem to find it:

I search at FFado.org for this soundcard and it says that it's fully supported, but I can't get it to work.
