You will have no problem reading / writing to it. The only issue may be the permissions side of things. If that is a problem post back.

Good luck with that and at least you potentially will have a system that works. Thinking about it, if your onboard graphics is intel, then you will probably still get a reasonable result... I have...

Does this pc have onboard graphics? If so try swapping the lead from your graphics card to the onboard motherboard. It may not be able to run fancy graphics but at least you could tell if it is...

I must admit I haven't used or even tried Ubuntu for a few years now. Ever since the move to Pulseaudio and it's conrlict with my M-audio sound card. In other distros with a little tweaking ( mostly...

That's true enough!!! I just think we could do more to educate.... Possibly something in the initial install process... call me old fashioned but why not have help files or links on how things should...

And how helpful is this to a newbie / casual Ubuntu user???;)

Which says to me this method of getting the message across is not working... I'm not saying I know the answer but maybe this does need to be examined by those that package Ubuntu.....

Yes this is so true, but we need to (especially in newbie friendly Ubuntu) get that basic knowledge across.... :D

Now that would make sense and I am thinking of those new to the Linux experience... it can be all so daunting and easy to slip up on good admin practice. On one hand we're trying to push Linux out to...

I've been following this post with growing interest. I realize that users should always be wary of installing away from official repositories, but how much are Gnome-look ,etc, responsible for making...

Photorec is a good program. I've used it to recover files off a corrupted SD card. The poor owner of said card was really upset as it contained only copies of family photos and was over the moon when...

The Wacom tablets I have tried work well, unlike other cheaper tablets. I currently have the Intuos 3 used with GIMP.

That's true! It's quicker to not have to re-rip half your CD collection, though. I remember when my hard-drive failed and I wasn't on the internet.... It was a nightmare retyping all those albums.......

Also, when in doubt do a backup first!!!! But I guess that's just rubbing salt into your wounds!! Hope the wife has forgiven you and you're not still banished to the naughty stair?

Glad you got it sorted! Yep that is the great thing with linux! :grin:

If anyone else has this bug it is probably a good idea that you post against:

Thank you Ulysses361!!!! I've been pulling my hair out for days (I'm pretty much bald now!) trying to get my M-audio 2496 to work! It was the second fix that worked for me.

ps Dogbin when you add...

I agree. The latest ATI driver for Linux is a vast improvement for my system. I was getting various screen corruptions that are now fixed. The AMD site gives a good guide of how to install their...

And yet despite the "look", they did it!!!! Hey who said beauty was only skin deep!!! Brawn did so well in a year they could so easily have folded. I really wish them well for the future and...

In that case, unfortunately it may be that your soundcard is not yet supported by Linux.... I am not saying this is definitely the case but it might be worth doing some research with ALSA (looking...

Out of interest, did you get sound from the "live" install disc? It might be worth popping that in and seeing if you do... Also have you had sound working with other flavours of Linux or is this your...

Are you saying that "Audio Device" did not show in the list produced by "lspci -v | less".
If that is so then it does point to a hardware problem with the motherboard. There probably isn't a...
