Can it be related to the fact that it is quad core?

I just did it. Sound comes out now but it is distorted. Is it possible that I have more than one sound device conflicting?

How do I determine that?

I have a Shuttle SFF system with a 2.5GHz AMD Phenom Black Box running stock. Everything works fine but I have no sound. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this?

What command do I need to type to...

Intel processors are more capable than AMD.
Not even close to true. AMD and Intel are functionally identical.

Nvidia is a better choice for Linux than AMD/ATI video.
Again, totally false. I use...

ASUS G1Sn works fantastic...ASUS F8Va does not!:(

I think I did it before and I seem to remember it showing two cards. I'll check it in a few.

No, thats the wired NIC.

This is the wireless: Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 USB Controller (rev 01)


Get an Intel based wireless and your problem will be solved.

I'm at work right now but I'll try it tonight, thanks.

Since you said "budget" (and not bleeding edge) AMD is the best bang for the buck by far. Intel's top processors are faster but AMD gives more for less because they have no choice.

Also, if you...

Thanks for your help.:(

Ok, so nobody knows about solving sound issues in Ubuntu. Does anybody know where I might find someone who knows something about this because I am obviously not in the...

Any suggestions as to how I should proceed to solve my sound problem?

I'm not sure that is even possible. I have had luck with both ATi and nVidia based laptops. The NIC is far more important. Stay away from non-Intel NICs and you should be fine.

Ubuntu needs to...

I have an ASUS F8Va-B1 and everything seems to work except for the sound. Any help would be greatly appreciated.:guitar:

Are you running 4GB RAM?

How is the CPU utilization at idle? It should be close to zero unless you're running Compiz and other such desktop enhancements, in which case it should still be well under 15%. If it's higher than...

What are your system specs including RAM?

Simple! We run Linux for everything except the things we have to run Windows for. XP Professional runs great as a VM under Linux, and you can even run both machines (Linux host and XP VM)...

Yes please modify the instructions for 64 bit if it's not too much trouble. Thanks.

As mentioned previously, running Windows software on a Linux box is hit and miss. If you are going to judge the OS only by how well it runs Windows programs you are doing yourself a great...

Post your full system specs including memory and OS. It's hard to help you if we know nothing about your system.

Is there any chance they will address this issue in future kernel releases? It's sort of a big deal,

If you need to run Windows you should do it. The better option is to learn how to use other programs that do the same thing and do not need M$.
