The fact that steam is coming out on Linux is the best news I've got in ages.

Can't wait to format my Windows drive ):P

Hi Guys,

This is more of a small annoyance than anything, but when I log in Empathy isn't logging in automatically. I have to click on the mail icon and then chat to get it to log in. I've checked...

I done a reinstall to fix this as a lot of people said it would be quickest!

I'm trying to install qtsixa and am getting the following error:

I got an official controller and all is well now, I just have to stop and start sixad as you said to get it to work, thanks for your help!

It's virtually indistinguishable from an official controller, although it seems a little heavier. I'm getting an official one later so I'll give it a go and let you know how I get on.

This is what I'm getting when I try to install:

Ok I'll try that instead, so I've added the PPA, now should the packages I need to install be linux-lts-backport-natty-source-2.6.38 and linux-lts-backport-natty-headers ?

Thanks for your help on...

No I haven't done anything like this yet.

Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly do I need to do to do this? This is what I done:


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-iquik/alsa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install alsa alsa-utils...

I compiled from source as listed here using the following statement when configuring the driver:

Sorry I forgot to add this in, I downloaded and installed the drivers from NVidia's website:

cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version:

I think all I need is alsa, the thing is that the card isnt being detected at all at the moment. When I run aplay -l this is what I get:

I'm trying to get sound over HDMI working on a new soundcard (Nvidia 550 Ti). It works fine on Ubuntu 11, its picked up automatically. On any earlier version of Ubuntu however it is not, even when I...

No luck I'm afraid, got no output at all when I tried to connect. I think I'm going to go back to 10.1 and hopefully get alsa working (thats why I went to 11 in the first place).

Thanks for all...

I'll enable debugging later on today and watch the logs when trying to connect the controller and let you know if anything shows up there.

@ kruykaze

I'll give that a go later aswell and let...

Pardon my ignorance, but to install this kernel do I just install the two available deb files (headers and image)? Thanks!

Thanks for your help benemorius, but still no joy. My device is paired:

Thanks for your help, but no luck I'm afraid :(

Hi Guys,
