    [xubuntu] Re: Choppy video in Firefox - 20.04

    Could be cruft from all the in-place upgrades.
    I just remembered that I'm using compton as a compositor, I've also noticed since upgrading to 20.04 compton is using 100% of one CPU core. I forgot...

    [xubuntu] Choppy video in Firefox - 20.04

    Good morning.

    Across multiple streaming sites, such as YouTube, I get stuttering video, *only* in Firefox.

    Does not happen in Brave (Chromium based)

    Never was a problem on 16.04. I did...

    [edubuntu] Re: Error: Failed to connect to NBD server

    I had this problem, and I'm purposely running xinetd for vncserver previously. Xinetd reads the inetd.conf and tries to run these services as well for compatibility reasons. Looking at the logs,...

    [ubuntu] Re: Totem crashes playing x264 .mkv files

    Updating from the ppa doesn't help here. Nor does the latest version of gst-ffmpeg. What puzzles me is totem just quitting, perhaps it is actually a totem problem? I've had issues with gstreamer...

    check through your /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see that a) it's using the NVIDIA driver, and b) for any errors.
  7. [SOLVED] Re: 8.04 to 10.04 - pulseaudio broken

    Ok, I fixed this so I'll post the answer in case someone else ever needs this fixed. The /etc/pulse/default.pa that I was using in 8.04 was changed because I needed to add an entry to make...

    [ubuntu] Re: 9.10 ALC 883/887 no sound

    Maybe I missed this but are you sure nothing is muted, etc? In newer Ubuntu there's no control over the actual alsa device at all it looks like. alsamixer might be available from a terminal, but...
  9. [ubuntu] Re: Unable to get Ubuntu 10 fullscreen using VirtualBox

    you shouldn't need xorg.conf to fix this.

    [ubuntu] Re: 9.10 ALC 883/887 no sound

    Go to the output devices tab and change the default output device to the internal audio by right-clicking on the name and checking "default". I'm almost positive from the looks of that screenshot...
  11. [ubuntu] Re: Nvidia GeForce 6200 incompatible with 10.04?

    there is some annoying behavior trying to get the right version of the kernel module needed for older drivers.

    try to install nvidia-173-modaliases if that's not installed, that might do it

    [ubuntu] Re: 9.10 ALC 883/887 no sound

    I doubt it's an issue with the modules, though I could be wrong. I'm guessing it's probably an issue with the wrong card/output being used or the volume being muted. Install pavucontrol, and open...

    PulseAudio STILL won't save what I have selected as the default output device. It still won't see the HDMI audio device unless I add this to default.pa:



    I had this bug, hopefully it's dealt...
  15. [ubuntu] Re: No sound over HDMI (Nvidia videocard + integrated audio)

    That Nvidia card will never show up as an HDMI audio device because it doesn't have one. The Nvidia card just piggybacks the SPDIF output onto the HDMI cable - I take it you have a cable that...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: software raid 1, system very unresponsive during large writes.

    This seems to have helped a fair bit.. Anyone care to explain why?

    I will keep an eye out for drive failing though, if I move some stuff around I could try removing one drive and adding another.
  17. [ubuntu] Re: software raid 1, system very unresponsive during large writes.

    I'm running smartd with daily self-tests, but I have had my share of issues with sata cables, i'll check that. Most of the time I've seen issues in /var/log/messages when things were going wonky...

  24. [gnome] Re: Totem-gstreamer: build gst-ffmpeg plugin from CVS

    Messing around with the gst-ffmpeg plugin could possibly break any gstreamer apps, like totem and rhythmbox, but won't break vlc or mplayer as their decoders are internal. As for the audio drifting...
  25. [gnome] Re: Totem-gstreamer: build gst-ffmpeg plugin from CVS

    You would just need to unpack the .10.4, configure, then make, make install. I would definately still remove the current gstreamer-ffmpeg package, though. Ubuntu/Debian lib dirs are different than...
