Re: MCP79 Sound Issues

2011-04-01 Thread Alexey Fisher
Hi Matthew,

check if als volume controllers are on maximum and not muted. You can
use alsamixer (start im terminal). 

Take a look a this howto:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting

and report a bug by using apport-bug command.

Call for testing: Unity multitouch gestures

Call For Testing: Multitouch

Do you have multitouch hardware? A macbook with multitouch track pad? A
magic mouse? A super fancy touch screen laptop? Do you want to help
ensure users have an amazing and exhilarating multitouch experience?

We are looking for volunteers to test Unity's multitouch functionality.
The goal of this testing is to catch, and fix bugs before they reach a
major audience.

If you want to be part of the team you will need:

 1. A computer with some kind of multitouch hardware.
 2. A computer than can run Unity
 3. An Internet connection

If you want to take part in this adventure, go to:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Testing/Multitouch
and follow the detailed instructions.

Thanks for helping making Ubuntu even better!

 Either all of those cases are fails, or the Magic Mouse just doesn't support
 3 and 4 finger touch.

 I just tried all of them but none of them work on my Magic Mouse (then
 again, I've never had more than 2 fingers working on the MM anyway... )

 Should bugs be opened in this case, or do you know if this is a Magic Mouse
 limitation

On further contemplation, I opened two bugs (one for three finger
tap/touch and one for four finger tap/touch) and failed the test cases
since the MM is supposed to be fully MT capable.

  Wiki pages or some similar system that accepts submitted contributions

  models invaluable when trying to make purchase recommendations or
  decisions. With an organized effort I bet our community could be seen

  As hardware changes so quickly one of the only reasonable way to
  provide this is with some kind of crowd sourced system. One hurdle
  will be to verify submitted information but if there is a critical
  mass of contributors and some kind of rating system this shouldn't be
  too difficult in theory.

 I don't think that system has the capabilities or value to end users
 that I tried to describe. What I am hoping is that end users would be
 enabled to help each other, providing validation of what works and
 what doesn't for their particular combination of hardware, kernel
 modules and software. Reporting bugs or harnessing testing was not my
 intended user base. In thinking about this a bit more it might make
 more sense to work with the launchpad team to see if features could be
 added, extending their work to provide a delightful result for less
 experienced end users.

 It sounds a lot like a page in the Ubuntu wiki might be the right place
 for what you're thinking of.  Why don't you create one and add what you
 can and advertise it here?  That way people can start collaborating! :)

 An example that might be a good thing to copy as a start might be this:
 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop

 What do you think?

Hi Ronald,

Greetings from one of the Global Jams in California!

Purchase recommendations are a key goal unlike the
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop which has a mission of We're
on a mission to get Ubuntu to work great on as many different makes
and models of laptops as possible. I think this is targeting the
collective wisdom captured in user reports and bugs of actual results
and satisfaction of the combined solutions.

I will update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Tablet to outline this
idea as it evolves. The devil will be in the details of implementing
the UI and database storage.

For the front end a suggestion from Jono is to create a Unity Lens.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/Lenses  This would be a fantastic
addition for people already running Ubuntu. An additional website
front end to the database will be required for those not running
Ubuntu yet, one of the key use cases for this to be useful to end
users. For older systems a link from the
System...Administration...System Monitor of the gnome-control-panel
might be useful.

A good example lens is the packaged askubuntu lens [1] though I think
it is an insufficient data source for implementing all that I have in
mind. Extending launchpad would allow relevant bug reports with
valuable fixes and work arounds to be easily found and implemented by
those most in need of them.

For the database back end something with structured submissions like
those coming from checkbox going into http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/ each day
but with a better UI might be a good data set for technical details.
For any community member trying to do an install or considering
whether to buy a piece of hardware the matrix of several factors are
required to pinpoint successes or failures that are repeatable:

a) hardware - hopefully data pulled directly from the hardware
b) kernel  drivers loaded
c) software used, sometimes with configuration data

If all the ways that someone can run Ubuntu and Unity could be kept
updated from various sources, perhaps initially captured in manual
wiki pages, I think that users and developers would be well served and
can easily find hardware to run this fantastic new touch software.
