Installation issues / Re: HELP! lmce will no longer boot.

« on: March 18, 2012, 10:29:11 pm »

I managed to get into the kde desktop by running sudo startx.
Now I can log into the admin console.
When I look under advanced/configuration/devices I no longer see my core or its MD. (I am running a hybrid system)
Is there anyway add the core as a device? When I tried to add it as a top level device I received the error: please make sure LMCE is running.
Am I screwed?

I would, but the only internet I have available is an at&t hot spot so I always get

Code: [Select]

* *** Notice -- You need to identify via SASL to use this server
* Closing Link: mobile-198-***-***-***.mycingular.net (SASL access only)when I try to join irc channels. I will try to rig something up with tor perhaps.

I am sure my problem is something simple, I just have no experience with linux..

Installation issues / HELP! lmce will no longer boot.

« on: March 18, 2012, 01:06:56 am »

I have had lmce up and running for a few weeks, I just got my first orbiter working, and was trying to set up the usb-urt to control my av receiver. I chose a template and then lmce kept popping up a message reading something like:  The new device was added, but needs to download data that can only be downloaded from the internet.
The only option was ok.
After about an hour of this message popping up every 5 mins I rebooted.

Now kubuntu halts on boot at:
starting samba daemons ....done

Code: [Select]

kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot...
0
Restarting openBSD secure shell server sshd ...done
re-exporting directories for nfs kernel daemon ...done
reloading /ect/samba/smb.conf smbd only ...done
stopping samba daemons ....done
starting samba daemons ....done
reloading /ect/samba/smb.conf smbd only ...done
stopping samba daemons ....done
starting samba daemons ...done
-

If I hit cntrl alt f1 I get a command prompt and can login. But I don't know what to do from here.

Can anyone help me? I know next to nothing about linux troubleshooting..

I am going to resurrect this post.

Did this ever get resolved?

I can connect with hidd --connect
But I have to do it every time I boot the computer.

Ok, so here is the newest development.
Every time I reboot all the changes I made to asound.conf are gone...  

I used sudo gedit then browsed to ect/asound.conf made my changes, saved.
Then checked the webadmin. dts pass through was already checked.
Then sudo reboot.

Help!


edit: I checked to make sure it saved by opening ect/asound.conf before rebooting.

I found it.

Did not know I had to look under media director when using a hybrid. I was looking in "core"

still learning..

I have added the code to my asound.conf.

Where in the webadmin can I select the ac3/dts?

"tick Use AC3/DTS pass-through in webadmin page, then reboot"

Installation issues / No HDMI audio with GeForce 210 LMCE 8.10 SOLVED

« on: February 26, 2012, 06:24:07 pm »

I Installed lmce for the first time this weekend, and can not get sound to output via hdmi. I will sometimes have a split second of sound on login, then nothing else.
I have been drowning in so called various "fixes" for the last 24 hours but none seem to work. I have just started from a fresh install again, and am hoping someone can give me some pointers in the right direction.
I have disabled the onboard sound in my bios, so my nvidia card is being detected as card0
I have an asus geforce 210. I thought to upgrade to the latest nvidia drivers (295.20) in my last install, but I could not figure out how to close x server without having the box freeze.
All 4 outputs in my alsamixer are unmuted and showing 00, I could not get the volume to change.

Code: [Select]

aplay -l

Whenever I try to play sound from aplay or speaker-test I get

Code: [Select]

Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy
My alsa version is 1.0.23

Code: [Select]

cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.23.

Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can stop bashing my head against the wall.
