Thanks for this tip, Rao. After following it, I get the applet to open but still no joy because when I click a Record button, the Java applet displays a message, saying I don't have permission to...
I have been trying unsuccessfully to record a speech sample at http://www.voxforge.org/home/read. I can record my voice crystal clearly with Audacity, so sound is working fine, but the website uses a...
I can't get the above web page to display the recording applet. I'm running Lucid Lynx with FF with all variations of java installed. FF Advanced Preferences has Enable Java Scripts ticked.

This is great news, Rao. Lack of speech recognition in linux, specifically dictation, has been the only deal breaker for me to switch my translation business entirely to Ubuntu.
I would gladly...
I forgot to record the solution I found to this problem, so here goes:
The Andrea sound pod turned out not to be usable with Vista on **my** machine. Notice the emphasis. I know the Andrea works...
Hi AJ,
Thanks for replying.
Yes to both. Before I removed Pulse Audio, the settings were Pulse Audio and ICH AC97. After removal, I set Sound Preferences for ALSA in Ubuntu and changed...
I am currently using VB 1.2.1, but this problem started several versions ago.
Installing Vista in VB has always gone smoothly for me on the surface, but none of the installations has ever been...
Installing Acer Aspire drivers - pretty much a shot in dark, anyway - did not solve the problem, so I guess I'm stumped for now. If anything, this exercise added problems, like destabilizing the...
The number of views since my last entry has now nearly doubled, and there have still not been any ideas. I have dug up one additional piece of information that I did not have when I first started...
Well, my problem has been looked at 50 times, and no one has jumped in. Meanwhile I've gathered more info. For example, using my desktop, I have successfully installed SP1 to the same vdi as on my...
I am using the VirtualBox version 2.1.0
The title summarizes the problem. On my laptop a VM running WinXP recognizes my usb mics without a hitch. So nothing is wrong with my setup in Hardy (i.e.,...
Thanks to tommcd and skripka. They confirmed what I was worried about.
Hardy has given me very few headaches. I'm not convinced I'm curious enough about KDE4.2 to move from Hardy to Intrepid as...
I am currently running Ubuntu Studio in Hardy but would like to take a look at KDE4.2. Is this possible, or would this require updating to 8.10?
Can I just install a KDE4.2 desktop? How?
Thanks for the suggestion. Since I'd just done a major simplification of my disk, including moving swap, I followed caljohnsmith's tip, and it worked.
Love the avatar, :lol:
Yep, caljohnsmith, that worked perfectly. The boot splash returned to normal.
Many thanks!
This looks like a promising approach. The first command spit out a UUID different from the second and third commands:
/dev/sda5: TYPE="swap" UUID="1b9a6515-563d-491f-a2fd-a30dbf039a14"...
I posted this problem on the desktop environments forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1006678, but maybe this one is more appropriate. I run Ubuntu Studio 8.04. One day the second part of...
I run Ubuntu Studio 8.04. One day part of the splash screen disappeared. The first part, where the white sweeps back and forth through the blue letters, is the same, but the second sequence, where...
I followed Herman's tip, but I first had to decide what "copy the VM over" meant. After reading more about this in these forums, I decided it meant:
1. Copy the vdi of the working VM.
2. Paste it...
Bullseye, Herman ;)
Now, all I have to do is research how to do it, but I'm sure I'll find out here.
Thanks for the heads-up:
I didn't know about this interesting twist, but I doesn't apply in this case. I'll try the tip in the Herman's post and report back.
Is Vista difficult to install successfully as a guest in VB?
Vista installed without trouble as a VB guest in Hardy 8.04 on my desktop PC, but I've had no success doing the same thing on my Acer...
I knew these forums held the answer.

How do I fix Hardy Gnome to open a terminal window with ALT+F2-F6?
Guess I don't know the right keywords as I suspect this problem's been addressed somewhere in these forums. I cannot open a...
I did as you suggested. Searching Launchpad did not turn up anything promising, so I returned to basics: SoundTroubleshooting.
Going through this yet again (I started there) showed that my...
