Good evening all
I have recently done a new install of MX Linux 23.6 onto a HP Omen PC.
Since installing I have two issues.
1) The PC will not shutdown via the shutdown button of via the CLI
interface by issuing the sudo shutdown -h now. In both cases the PC
will will turn the monitors off then the the monitors will flash and
come back on with like a dark grey light and the power light permanently
on. After about 40 seconds the Keyboard lights go out but that as far as
it goes. Pressing and holding the power button will turn the PC off. I
have found that using
sudo shutdown -Ph now
from the CLI will shut the PC down.
2), I have a sound issue, when my son owned this PC he had no issue with
sound (under windows 10). When he passed the PC over to me I have used
it for the past 18 month using headphones for team meeting etc. No issue
with sound.
Having installed MC Linux it make a horrible burping noise, like
plugging the speakers in when the PC is on, it make a horrible burp
noise then sound plays without issue. The burping noise happens every
time you play a sound or video, but once it has burped at the start of
the file the playback is perfectly OK.
I have tried back and front line-out ports on the PC and a different set
of speakers no difference, still have the horrible noise.
