|
[17:35] <amjjawad> either you will be directed to Ubuntu Forum and you'll find many threads or you may be directed to Ubutnu Documenation Pages |
|
[17:36] <amjjawad> xerox4100, so when you go to Youtube, everything is ok except for that game u play? |
|
[17:36] <E3D3> ilea: I think its a stupid question but I guess you also tried the special laptop buttons for changing brightness ? |
|

|
[17:36] <amjjawad> xerox4100, sorry? |
|

[17:36] <amjjawad> E3D3, there is nothing called "Stupid" quesiton ;) |
|
[17:37] <xerox4100> ya if i play any video on the web it works |
|
[17:37] <amjjawad> xerox4100, let me guess, are you playing on failbook? |
|
[17:37] <xerox4100> 1 sec let me google that |
|
[17:37] <ilea> now i use ubuntu 11.10 beta 2 on my pc |
|
[17:37] <amjjawad> xerox4100, have you tried to play that on Chromium? |
|
[17:38] <ilea> didnt try it yet on the laptop |
|
[17:38] <E3D3> amjjawad: You should have known/hear me last week. Maybe it was the flu but I was annoying stupid. But thanks for the support :-) |
|
[17:38] <amjjawad> ilea, be careful with Beta Versions :) I prefer to install these versions on test machines |
|
[17:38] <ilea> i test them too |
|
[17:39] <ilea> and send error reports |
|
[17:39] <amjjawad> E3D3, we didn't talk before :) |
|
[17:39] <ilea> like the unity bar closes sometimes |
|
[17:39] <E3D3> amjjawad: You was lucky ;-) |
|
[17:39] <amjjawad> ilea, I'm a member in Lubuntu Team and I've been testing Lubuntu 11.10 beta2 too on two test pcs |
|
[17:39] <amjjawad> E3D3, ahahahahha |
|
[17:39] <xerox4100> if i try to play music threw banshee it doesn't work or a game threw wine |
|
[17:40] <ilea> and the lunchers up in the bar sometimes when ubuntu boots dosnt apear |
|
[17:40] <amjjawad> I have no experience in Wine and Wubi ... I never use these things |
|
[17:40] <ilea> the indicators |
|
[17:40] <ilea> sound internet etc |
|
[17:40] <ilea> only after restart |
|
[17:40] <ilea> strange bug |
|
[17:40] <amjjawad> ilea, are you talking about Ubuntu 11.10? |
|
[17:40] <ilea> yes |
|
[17:41] <ilea> i am using it right now |
|
[17:41] <amjjawad> Oh, thank God I'm testing Lubuntu :D |
|
[17:41] <amjjawad> I'm not a fan of Unity :( |
|
[17:41] <ilea> i like unity and gnome 3 |
|
[17:41] <ilea> u should see how good fedora 15 looks |
|
[17:41] <amjjawad> ilea, I'm trying too ;) |
|
[17:41] <xerox4100> any ideal's on how i get this sound fixed |
|
[17:42] <amjjawad> xerox4100, so you have problems with some games and programs only? |
|
[17:42] <amjjawad> xerox4100, try Chromium and see if you get the same and try another Media Player say VLC and see if you get the same issues |
|
[17:42] <xerox4100> correct |
|
[17:42] <xerox4100> well all games and applications |
|
[17:43] <ilea> what sound hardware u have? |
|
[17:43] <amjjawad> xerox4100, what do you mean ALL? you said some are working and some are not?! right? |
|
[17:43] <ilea> realtek or what? |
|
[17:44] <xerox4100> the only thing that plays sound is when you watch a video on the web |
|
[17:44] <xerox4100> and when you turn the pc on it makes the ubuntu noise |
|
[17:44] <amjjawad> sudo lshw -C sound |

[17:46] <ilea> i put it back to max and it worked |

|
[17:46] <amjjawad> have you installed it? driver=snd_hda_intel |
|
[17:47] <xerox4100> i dont know ow to install drivers |
|
[17:47] <xerox4100> how* |
|
[17:47] <amjjawad> xerox4100, so you didn't install it ... it was there by default |
|
[17:48] <xerox4100> ya |
|
[17:48] <amjjawad> Ok |
|
[17:48] <LemonAid> This might get you no where but try starting banshee from the terminal and play a song, see if you get any error/warning. (for instance if you have a firefox and a 64 bit system + flash plugin, you will spot a warning, only if you lunch it from the terminal) |
|
[17:49] <xerox4100> could you give me a command to use lemonaid |
|
[17:49] <amjjawad> hmmm, I'm not an expret in drivers but LemonAid's suggestion is good |
|
[17:49] <LemonAid> ctrl+alt+t = new terminal |
|
[17:49] <LemonAid> and type banshee |
|
[17:50] <LemonAid> Ignore the messages about the unmounted volumes. |
|
[17:51] <xerox4100> no errors |
|
[17:54] <LemonAid> Have you tried playing an .mp3 song ? Because you need some plugins. That might be the reason why the browser is playing sounds and banshee is not. Does not explain the game sounds missing though. |
|
[17:55] <LemonAid> However you should have got a "you`re missing stuff" message. |
|
[17:57] <xerox4100> ill download one |
|
[17:58] <LemonAid> The package is GStreamer , in case you haven`t. |
|
[17:58] <LemonAid> try this before you do that: "aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav" without the quotes |
|
[18:01] <xerox4100> The program 'play' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: |
|
[18:01] <xerox4100> sudo apt-get install sox |
|
[18:01] <LemonAid> it`s "aplay" |
|
[18:02] <xerox4100> Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Mono |
|
[18:03] <xerox4100> still no sound |
|
[18:03] <LemonAid> So you did not hear a voice say " Front Center" ? |
|
[18:04] <xerox4100> no |
|
[18:06] <LemonAid> Ok. That was the first step of the guide to troubleshooting your sound problems. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting, will take you trough the rest of the procedure. |
|
[18:08] <xerox4100> thanks LemonAid ill run threw it |
|
[18:09] <LemonAid> Your welcome. |
|
[18:09] <amjjawad> xerox4100, sorry, couldn't help much! |
|
[18:13] <amjjawad> ok, cya everyone :) |
|
[18:37] <xerox4100> its all good |
|
[18:37] <xerox4100> im going to reinstall ubuntu i think |
|
[18:37] <xerox4100> thank you all for you help :p |
