Thank you very much!
Hi guys,
I created this account a long time ago as a casual Linux user and picked something completely random. Later when I got more seriously involved with Ubuntu GNOME I started to use my handle...
I too was sad to hear this news as I was fond of the whole convergence thingy and Unity as a DE but sometimes it's hard to be open-minded in a mostly closed-minded world, where people don't like to...
I am currently on Debian 8 k3.16.0-4 and since I've opened this thread I've tested about all the major distros with kernels from 3.16 up, to no avail. Sound is extremely low w/ distortion.
Tried...
I don't think filing a separate bug against every app I encounter is a good idea, especially those not in the repos, more like filing a bug against what they all have in common - a library/driver,...
Ok, you won't believe this, but when I tested over Audacity to record my own voice it worked. Through Audacity I could hear my voice. Through Skype or Hangouts, or Telegram I cannot.
I checked...
Do you think I should give it one last shot by settings even BIOS Defaults (not only boot priority and boot mode respectively) to Windows 8 (UEFI), then boot to a live session and try Ubuntu GNOME...
I have asked for clarification about UEFI vs. Legacy and got good enough answer not to stick with it.
On the other hand, when I change my BIOS settings to full UEFI with defaults for "Other OS"...
Have tested with having everything set to UEFI except OS defaults, those I kept for "other OS", not Windows 8, then my computer wouldn't even boot, probably also because I have no EFI partition...
Hey Lance,
I already tried numerous live sessions with all *ubuntu flavours and also distros like Fedora, Manjaro and the mic behaved the same.
Important thing to mention is when BIOS was set...
Do you think is it also possible that I'm having this issue because I installed my system with legacy instead of UEFI settings in BIOS?
I'm asking, because Windows wouldn't install in legacy mode,...
I've tried now with a pair of headphones that have a mic, it was the only thing I have (not using it at all) and my laptop has a unified jack for both mic and speakers. Sound was very, very bad,...
I am running Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 x64, but I tested also with Manjaro k3.16.7 to see if this impacts only *ubuntu variants and I got the same result - microphone is barely working, I could barely hear...
Upgrading to 15.04 might solve this, as doing a brief check via LiveUSB I saw that both cards are detected. Although there are still issues with e.g. Libreoffice crashing the entire sessino I might...
I own a Lenovo G50-45 laptop (full AMD with A6-6310 APU) which comes with AMD Radeon R4 and R5 graphic cards. Problem is even though I have a fully up-to-date 14.04.2 x64 with the latest catalyst...
Thanks lads, this was resolved after I re-installed the computer and setting all BIOS settings to legacy mode.
Tried everything that has been suggested. I guess I'll just have to leave it for now and perhaps when Windows won't be required on that machine it will be easier to get it running.
Thanks for all...
Now that you mention back light, when I ran the LiveCD I spotted 3 lines of text there (splash) with a short error related to back light, that it could not be found or smth, but it still ran normally...
The output of vbeinfo shows the following (see image), other options didn't work.
I think I have tried possibly every boot parameter I could find. I'm attaching the GRUB screen to check if there's something wrong:
Logged in to the machine via LiveCD I got this output:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lspci -v -s `lspci | awk '/VGA/{print $1}'`
00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI]...
Nothing happens, no errors are displayed, just a blank, dark purple screen.
I will try the command suggested by Kansasnoob and post the result when I get on the other computer.
I've tried NOMODESET, to no avail.
I don't think the driver is the issue since when previewing from the LiveCD everything went totally smooth, no lags, spikes, slowdowns, the desktop was...
Hey,
it's a Lenovo G505s (not manufactured anymore) laptop with an AMD A8-4500 processor with Radeon HD graphics (2 GB VRAM).
Nothing works when I choose to boot Ubuntu, not even recovery mode....
Yes, without issues, only there are two Windows entries at boot, but I always pick the one at /dev/sda1 and it runs.
