[Lubuntu-desktop] Howto Configure Audio Output
Hi, all, I was wondering how I can configure the audio output on my current lubuntu 11.04. It had been working fine through the built-in speaker of my netbook(ASUS 1005PXD) since my installation. For the past few days, I've been using a wireless headphone to watch video via Gnome Mplayer. Today, when I want to revert back to the built-in speaker, I can not find a way to do it. Currently, the sound can not be heard when Audacious or Gnome Mplayer is playing back something. Moreover, I am not able to find a way to configure the global audio output from the default programs. Your hints will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance. -- WANG, Xiaoyun Shanghai, China ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] [Lxde-list] Extend desktop across dual monitors -- a feature I would like to see in Lubuntu 12.xx
I'd adapt the default wall to dual. Would you use it?

But should be possible to decide between 2 and 3 For the desktop icons manager, options are: 1. icons on main monitor only. 2. some icons on main monitor, others on the external monitors. (Then how to handle icon rearrangement when the external monitor is disconnected?) 3. others... I don't really care with those two options... But I would be happy if I could have LxLauncher on one monitor, and a normal wallpaper with normal icons on the other monitor. =D For wallpaper: 1. one wallpaper per monitor 2. one wallpaper extending to all monitors 3. others... Although is hard to find an extended wallpaper, the 2 is the prettiest =] Atenciosamente, Gabriel Salles ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Howto Configure Audio Output
To configure the audio, I like to use the gnome-volme-control (you need to install gnome-media for this). Other nice option is pavucontrol.

Att, Gabriel Salles Hi, Andrew and Gabriel, Thank you very much for the reply. gnome-media should be a familiar option because it also exists on my Ubuntu desktop, but I will check what other options can do. The audio is currently working and it seems the problem was the speaker was put to mute although the volume control icon indicated otherwise.

Isn't it, that alsa is sound engine for Lubuntu? So why pavucontrol??

Things goes much more complicated since X supports XRandR, Xinerama, other vendor-specific solutions, X11 Display/Screen stuff. Implementation details for them are totally different. So how exactly should a desktop behave and be implemented? What will happen after Wayland is introduced and is widely accepted? We had better have a conclusion on the specifications before anything is going to be implemented. Comments needed. Thanks! In my setup, I prefer: One panel on main monitor, none on secondary OR mirrored panels on both. Icons on main monitor only (actually, I prefer a clean desktop with no icons other than mounted devices). One wallpaper per monitor, configurable. xrandr works comfortably for me. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Lubuntu-desktop] Fwd: Installer issues with PPC Ocelot
Hi QA, for my limited knowledge, this seems like a problem in the build engine as it is affecting both lubuntu ubuntu. I had previously pointed the OP to the bug affecting the 'mirror' problem. Should this be filed against Ubiquity or the build system, or something else? I'm certain that he would than happy to provide further information on what the system is doing etc if asked. @ Walter, as you can see, I've asked the QA team to issue guidance as to where best to report the problem. Thanks for taking the time to report the issue, I hope to have good news for you soon. Regards, Phill. -- Forwarded message -- From: Walter Lapchynski carsrcoffin...@yahoo.com Date: Fri, Oct 7, 2011 at 6:12 PM Subject: [Lubuntu-desktop] Installer issues with PPC Ocelot To: lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net I was SO excited to see Lubuntu on Canonical with an Ocelot version. My 12 PowerBook G4 has been waiting forever for this. Unfortunately, installation isn't going well. Desktop installer needed a bunch of upgrades (including to pygobject which caused an error) and then failed because of a supposedly fixed error in choose-mirror where mirror is the default rather than ports.ubuntu.com. This error IS fixed in x86 Ocelot but not in PPC. Standard Ubuntu PPC Ocelot has the same issue, so this is not just Lubuntu. I have tried to run Ubiquity without the network connection and yet still the installer attempts to download packages. I tried the alternate install CD and it boots fine, but when it comes to detecting the cdrom, it fails. The BusyBox shell fails to reveal mention of the cdrom anywhere: syslog, dmesg, /proc, /dev, etc. I tried to try again many times over to no avail. Interestingly, the latest Debian Squeeze PPC small CD, which I believe has the same installer, has no problems detecting the cdrom. So I don't know where to go next but I'm hoping that maybe the choose-mirror fix can be applied to the PPC version or that perhaps there may be some config file (like sources.list but for choose-mirror) I could manually edit.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 11.10 Beta 2 - Testing
Hi Julien and everyone, So sorry for the late reply. No, but it seems that ubiquity is not so strict about the space available. But it's still a bug, see : http://pad.lv/819538 Hmmm, don't know yet how the installer do that but as long as it worked, it's ok, I won't nag about it :) Ah, probably because you have a webcam, and my system doesn't. Yes, it happened that my Cam was connected to my PC. However, my point was and still is: there is no point of that step anyway because the purpose of taking a picture is to use it later after the user finishes the installation and that never happened. I mean, after I'm done with installation, I can't see the picture I took anywhere so what's the point of that? Do you think it might work with Ubuntu because it uses GDM while Lubuntu uses LXDM? No, a package available in official repository, but not installed by default. That's really great. So, will you guys remove the extra themes and stuff? or everything will remain the same? If it's still possible to do that at the moment, I would vote to remove the extra themes and give the user all the ability to install it after that from the repo. Just my opinion :) Probably this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/818869 Preciously. Indeed lxpanel - 0.5.8-1ubuntu3 is working correctly. Thanks! Just run ubuntu-bug network-manager-applet *ubuntu-bug network-manager-applet* In LXTerminal it gives a pop up error msg Package network-manager-applet does not exist. Please advice! When I tried to report that, nothing happened. Seemed to me the Report can't be sent. Please advice! Shall I include a screenshot next time? There you go :) http://i51.tinypic.com/14nhdm8.jpg http://i51.tinypic.com/2ekq544.jpg This is what I get when I report the problem with File Manager. http://i54.tinypic.com/2r44qpt.jpg This is what I get when I report LSC.

I have done another installation on another PC with less space (3.5GB) and again nothing wrong happened. Does that mean the problem is fixed? or it happened from time to time? Also, does the installer calculate the total HDD Size and based on that it decides whether the Disc Space is not enough or not? just to make sure what I'm thinking about is correct. No, but it seems that ubiquity is not so strict about the space available. But it's still a bug, see : http://pad.lv/819538 Choose a Picture Step appears right after the partitions screen but I'll double check and confirm where exactly it appears. But, is it a bug or something? it shouldn't show up, right? Ah, probably because you have a webcam, and my system doesn't. 7- We plan to add more artwork, but not by default. It should be a package available which have more artwork for Lubuntu. PPA you mean? that would be great and better IMHO :) Lubuntu really needs lots of these stuff. I was trying to write some guides about that but I'll wait until 11.10 be released and will have 6 months to write guides as much as possible :) No, a package available in official repository, but not installed by default. *8- I'd like to report a new problem with the Menu:* I installed Cairo-Dock and I wanted to move LXPanel to the top of the screen. I done that. While I was trying to open the menu, I got the following *screenshot https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/vacsCkuxZGGGwePAPZUNIA?feat=directlink .* I repeated the same with the other PC without installing Cairo-Doc, I just moved the LXPanel to the top of the screen and the same issue happened again. Menu is totally blank as you can see and you can't do anything unless you moved it back to the bottom. Please note that I haven't tried to restart the LXPanel. Please advice! Probably this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/818869 9- Yes please, I'm sure the network-manager will have a look at it if you document it like this :) I'm sorry but where do I have to report that? here https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop ???
