[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1341890] Re: [X550LA, Realtek ALC3236, Mic, Internal] No sound at all

2017-07-15 Thread TimSC
I have a problem with my sound suddenly stopping working (I'm on Mint
18.2 based on xenial, asus x555l). The work around is to reboot.

Another work around without rebooting: disable pulseaudio, first by
turning off autorespawn https://askubuntu.com/questions/8425/how-to-
temporarily-disable-pulseaudio and then pulseaudio --kill

Then sudo alsa reload

alsactl init

aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav

This responsed (with no audio playback):

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1029:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:722: audio open error: No such file or directory

However, this works: aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
--device=plughw:CARD=PCH,DEV=0

Then "pulseaudio --start" and my audio is back and working!

Bug description:
  I've been trying to fix this myself for a while now, and just a day or
  two ago, the speakers stopped working, too. Neither the internal nor
  external speakers I've been using with my laptop have been working,
  with two exceptions: the bongos noise when the login screen comes up,
  and the tones made during a system test. I have tried the commands
  "alsamixer" and "gstreamer-properties" in terminal and have had
  success with neither of them, and have also tried using the pulse
  audio volume controls to no avail. My assumption is that there is an
  issue with the drivers, as even the microphone produced a few sporadic
  noises ONLY when I was playing with the mic volume controls, but at no
  other point in no other program has it been so responsive.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 34813] Re: gedit fails to save files over smbfs/cifs

2014-06-19 Thread TimSC
This might be similar to the Virtualbox/gedit fails to save bug
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/341725) which I
suspect is caused by glib and the way it saves to a temporary file, then
renames without closing the file. The bug has been recorded as:

  Saving files over a cifs/smbfs server doesnt work.  You can open file,
  edit then save perfectly.  But repeated saves after give you this
  error:

  "The file /home/dhonn/website/arrays.php has been modified since
  reading it.  If you save it, all the external changes could be lost.
  Save it anyway?"

  The think is lying to me because I havent made any external changes.

  When I click "Save Anyway", i get this error:

  "Could not save the file /home/dhonn/website/arrays.php."

  But on the third try it works just fine.

  Here are the error messages, btw there are also GUI glitches too:

  I can't edit files in VirtualBox Shared Folders:
  sudo mkdir /mnt/share
  sudo mount.vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=1000 vs /mnt/share
  or
  sudo mount -t vboxsf vs /mnt/share -o rw,exec,uid=1000,gid=1000,dev
  $ echo blubb > /mnt/share/New
  it works

  $ ls -l /mnt/share
  $ -rw-rw-rw- 1 usr usr 31 2009-03-11 18:24 New
  $ gedit /mnt/share/New - can't save changes.
  (But nano, OpenOffice.org do it!)
  How to edit files in shared folders with gedit?

  
  But, L try now, gedit can save into file without caps letters, for example, 
  $ gedit /mnt/share/New 
  edit and save as 'new ' - gedit do it
