Hi Guys, I hope this helps some of you. Noting that pulse audio is new, I tried Adding its controls, to find that it made my Hardy-Beta sound problems worse, with conflicts even leading to crashes or complete Hardy lockup, so, noting more recent comments, I Removed those controls. (Please note that for media player compatibility, I routinely Add the six main GStreamer codecs plus libdvcss2.)
Since then I have done two completely fresh installs from the new menu install, using the Manual method to delete prior installation and to obtain 15GiB of free space (plus 1GiB logical drive swap) for the re-installation on two different dual-boot machines, one E2160 based (overclocked to a conservative 2.7GHz) and the other a trusty old 3.0Ghz Northwood based machine. Installations were on 04 and 05 April with approx 290 Updates including the new 2.6.24-15-generic kernel. I then Added my usual suite of about 120 packages including Kaffeine, VLC Player and Exaile to find that Exaile is still creating problems, which replacement by Amarok has largely avoided ! So I concur, Pulse-Audio appears to be immature, possibly linked to codec problems, but try different packages ! -- Over-optimistic buffering in PulseAudio causes underruns (audible stuttering, pops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190754 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
