@Bryan: you're right, there are no internal speakers on these boxes, that's ok though, all the testing I've done has been with a set of external speakers plugged into the rear output jack. Periodically I've also tried the front headphone jack. Regarding Kissake's fix: I don't have an "analog sp

I followed the advice in post #30 and that seems to have solved the problem. On a side note, since I expect to run 10.04 LTS for a long time, eventually I will probably need to undo what I've done. I've searched around on the net about "pinning" version numbers on certain apt packages, but have n

Optiplex 980, no sound has ever emanated from this machine (or any of the 15 others in my lab). I've tried updating to alsa 1.0.23, I've tried both the fix recommended here https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/589915 and the slightly different fix suggested in this thread. I'm following both hoping fo

As a followup, I can mount the shares automatically on boot if I put an entry in fstab, but that's not desirable when the laptop is out of the network containing the samba shares. Better if I can get nautilus bookmarks for them and only mount them when I know they're available. Thanks, -- Nautil

Mostly just want to confirm this problem. I have two monitors of different sizes and in 8.10 the background just stretched across both screens and filled them up completely--no hassles. I've tried all of the various options and can't replicate this behavior in 10.04. I even regenerated the fract

Well, I just finished installing 7.04 and indeed the video switching works just fine there. In 7.10, I suspect it's a problem with the hotkey keymask in /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi.modprobe the contents of which are, by default: options thinkpad_acpi hotkey=enable,0x8f experimental=1 As n
