Start by installing the kernel for your given architecture. You can click the link for one of the debs, and Ubuntu will handle the rest for you, although I recommend that you save the deb instead of installing it immediately via gdebi. I recommend that you verify that the SHA256SUM is correct after downloading the deb. I have placed a GPG-signed SHA256SUM.asc file in that directory. Open a Terminal, and type: sha256sum <filename> where <filename> is the path to the linux-image...deb that you downloaded. Make sure the sums match. > Once I get it up, what should I test?

Yes, please attempt to reproduce bug 330814 and/or bug 344057 using whatever "normal" usage patterns. Please remember that I am only interested in PulseAudio *stability* changes, not whether PulseAudio is inaudible, etc. -Dan -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
