Hey Y'all, Recently my sound has been misbehaving. The issue exists when I play sound using Rhythmbox, Totem Movie Player, or even Youtube video in Firefox or Chrome. The sound stutters and drops out. Sounds very rough. On Youtube the sound will eventually just die and can not be restarted until the browser is shut down and restarted. I've had issues related to Repo Forge

Hey guys, I have a mic plugged into my sound card. It worked late last night but not today. When I try to select the mic using System/Preferences/Sound I'm provided with several options to choose from. On the Hardware tab I choose the Internal Audio device and set it to Analog Stereo Duplex. On the Input tab I choose Internal Audio Analog Stereo there are two Analog Microphone Inputs,

Hey Y'all, I've been trying for months to get samba to share my printer with my wife's Win XP machine. I've RTFM, and spent hours on google to no avail. I can't see the printer from Windows so I can't mount it up. Nothing appears in the logs. The file shares work just fine. It looks like I've got Samba 3.6.9 on this machine: [mlapier at mushroom samba]$ rpm -qa

Back on February 28, 2018, I started a thread "User permissions of profile/home directory lost" describing a problem occurring with my wife's user account. Since that time the random problem has persisted so I turned on some debugging. I have been able to determine that somehow her account idmap is broken. Here is the entry for my wife's SID as found in the idmap.ldb file

Hey All, I just assembled a new machine. Mother Board: Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Processor: AMD FX8350 Memory: Corsair CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10 2x8 GB Video: BFG Tech Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT I tried the 6.6 x86_64 netinstall disk. I tried the 6.6 x86_64 install DVD Both fail at the same place: Anaconda installer init version 13.21.229 starting mounting /proc filesystem... done creating /dev

At first I thought it was due to running Mangler simultaneously, but recently we've had no sound in World of Warcraft. One night when I was setting up to raid that night, I started WoW, and sound worked fine. I then quit WoW, started Mangler, started WoW, had sound in the first but not the second. When WoW started this dialogue box popped up saying that a change in hardware had been detected

Hi All, I run a small domain for my home that consists just of two user accounts... one for my wife and one for me. I just have a single DC and the home and profile shares are located on the DC. For years this setup has served just fine giving me access to both linux and windows with a unified authentication and file server base. However, on Monday around 12 noon MST my wife lost permissions

Hey All, You know how sometimes you have a problem but you just live with it? Well I've got one of those problems. I have an HP-2025dn printer connected to my home network. When I print a plain text document containing the text, "this is a test", from my wife's Windows 7 machine using the text editor the print job finishes in less than 15 seconds. If I print two copies the

Recently my wife received an Email addressed from jdavidson4 at home.com. When she tried to reply to the original message her reply bounced with ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <jdavidson4 at home.com> (reason: 553 5.3.5 system config error) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 553 5.3.5 home.com.nurdog.com. config error: mail loops back to me (MX

Hey all. This morning I found that my audio playback is randomly sprinkled with sound skips and dropouts. I went to /var/log/yum.log and found this: Feb 09 20:18:22 Updated: lame-3.99.4-2.el6.rf.i686 I'm not saying that caused the problem but it's all I could find that changed. When I ls in /dev there is no dsp entry. That would explain why mplayer Can't open audio device

Hey Y'all, I though I would resurrect a long dead mail chain. I'm looking for a good replacement for Rhythmbox. I need a pod catcher to catch podcasts and download them to my HD where I can then move them onto my mp3 player that I take to work every day. I don't need a new mp3 player so don't suggest VLC. It is not able to download podcasts. I'm in the process of

I've managed to get Skype set up and working. I can hear the other person talking, but she can't hear me. During a conversation, I tried what I thought to be all possible settings in both the "Volume Control" application and in Skype itself. But no joy. To make matters more puzzling, I had skype working on this same machine last year using CentOS 5.6... or maybe it was

I'm running Fedora14 on all machines, including my wife's -- and I'm the nearest (distant) thing there is to tech support. She's far more likely to outlive me than I her; so I want to install something requiring a lot less maintenance on her machine, so that she'll have it and be used to it, years ahead of need. I'm thinking CentOS 6, whenever it's ready, is

Hey Y'all, I'm trying to turn off the kernel screen blanker that shuts off the video after about 10 minutes of inactivity at the keyboard. After extensive googling I've found two ways to *NOT* do it. In my home .xinitrc setterm -blank 0 -powersave off -powerdown 0 xset s off In /etc/rc.local /usr/bin/setterm -powersave off -blank 0 I've tried both to no effect. Of course

Hey all, I just went looking for some manuals for a friend of mine who is new to Linux. I installed CentOS 6.5 on his machine. The CentOS.org web site has documentation up to CentOS 5. Where can I look to find the manuals for CentOS 6? -- _ ?v? /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

I already posted this question some time ago, but no-one came with a solution or even a comment. Please, I really need this! So, I repeat: Configuration: Server: Mandrake Linux 9.1 box running samba 2.2.7 controling my home network A Windows 2000 Pro laptop, a few other Win and Lin boxes Problem: my wife has an existing remote domain account on her win2000 laptop, I want her to be able to

Hey Y'all, After upgrade to 6.6 my gui will not start. The problem is probably related to the dusty old video card I've got in this crusty old machine. 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GS] (rev a2) I've got the proprietary drivers installed. Normally when I update my kernel the video module is rebuilt automagically. That probably doesn't

I'm developing an application that have a video conference component. For that I need echo cancellation, and is looking around for algorithms/implementations of that, and the one in speex is an alternative. In the documentation for speex I find the following sentence however. "Using a different soundcard to do the capture and plaback will *not* work, regardless of what you may

I have installed Skype 4.0.0.8 on my new workstation running CentOS-6.3 (kvm) and the Gnome DTM. This host has an Intel DG43GT motherboard with on-board audio. The sound works when tested in the sound preferences in the desk top. Skype runs and the integrated usb video and microphone both work (I infer this from the mic test in Skype options showing movement on the intensity bar as I can hear

Hey all, I've installed MuseScore on my C6.6 machine. MuseScore is able to generate a midi sounding playback through the speakers of the active score. I want to capture that sound directly to a file without using a microphone. I want to send individual sound files to each of the members of my quartet with their part only. Does anyone know how I can capture sound directly to a file? Is
