Re: Desktop use (xfce) and system groups

Can someone give a list of groups, that desktop users should belong that video/audio playback (pulseaudio) work smoothly and they can for example shutdown/reboot system and use removable media without root password? An Xfce install can implement all those actions. It would be better if you could describe what it is you cannot do or what you want to achieve. User is in (cdrom,floppy,audio,video,plugdev,scanner,netdev,bluetooth) groups but root password is asked when trying to reboot or shutdown. I'm using lightdm display manager. Looks like xdm package is removed but not purged, can it cause problems? Display manager was automatically changed with task-xfce-desktop version 3.06. I don't remember did it work before. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: [alsa-devel] No sound on Asus EeePC 1215b (hda-intel)

Shouldn't mixer have more channels to adjust? 00:01.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc Device 1314 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40) Your default sound device is the device that happened to be detected first, which is your GPU's HDMI output. Tell whatever sound configuration tool is used in your distribution to use the other sound device. Shouldn't that be hidden when HDMI cable is not plugged (like now)? I'm working on hiding exactly that at the UI level (gnome/pulseaudio level rather than ALSA), but that is a long-term goal and not all pieces are into place yet. Does this kind of system work for someone? A very similar machine, Asus 1215P [1], was enabled by the team I'm involved with, so yes, it definitely works for someone, and it would surprise me if it does not work out of the box from an Ubuntu 11.10 Beta Live-CD even though the link says pre-install only. You could try this terminal command: speaker-test -D plughw:SB -c 2 -t sine And see if that outputs sound (try both headphones and internal speakers). I tested that command and it works. Now just have to figure out the right way to select default sound output device (on Debian). Ideally it should work automatically. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Please provide squeeze backports for alsa
Bug log for Alsa looks quite long so maybe some extra maintainers are needed? Anyway, I would like to request backporting Alsa for squeeze, hoping that it would make sound work better for my laptop (Asus EeePC 1215b). I already use kernel from unstable. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

So you are running the latest drivers with sid kernel. What else do you want? Anyway upgrading to sid would be a challange ;-) Alsa libs are needed for userspace programs that depend from them. They also provide mixer support. Just upgrading kernel isn't enough. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Installation with multiple Software RAID devices + LVM
I'd like to install Lenny into existing LVM volume group built top of Software RAID-1 physical volumes like this: pvs: PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/md0 LVM_VG_2 lvm2 a- 50,13G 0 /dev/md1 LVM_VG_2 lvm2 a- 14,80G 80,00M /proc/mdstat: Personalities : [raid1] md1 : active raid1 hda9[0] hdc6[1] 15518686 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU] md0 : active raid1 hda7[0] hdc5[1] 52564544 blocks [2/2] [UU] Partitions are type fd Linux raid autodetect and autodetected fine using existing installation (mix of etch and lenny). I used priority=medium boot option to give more control during install. But Lenny installer or kernel doesn't autoassemble md1, only md0. I think it should bring md1 up too. Could it be about superblock version (md1 has version 1.2 superblock). Why version 0.90 is default? As workaround how I assemble array manually from installer without erasing data?
