#debian channel featuring Shadow_7, echosystm, somiaj, userro, missmbob, petemc,

echosystm 2017-03-02 16:49:03
petemc: i can't reconnect to my server though
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:49:23
i dont understand why openconnect disconnects me. openvpn doesn't do that.
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:49:40
once the VPN is started, the onyl way i can get back into the server is to reboot it
petemc 2017-03-02 16:51:23
echosystm: probably restarting it is sufficient
georgia 2017-03-02 16:51:31
alrighty then. here's my sound http://pastebin.com/13CTkCKp
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:52:39
i dont want to restart the server...
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:52:49
i need to do things while the vpn is up
georgia 2017-03-02 16:52:50
heh I screwed up the pretty syntax highlighting
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:52:58
i can't do those things if i don't have ssh access
georgia 2017-03-02 16:54:41
http://pastebin.com/vfvVrtQH
georgia 2017-03-02 16:54:46
Alright fixed version!
petemc 2017-03-02 16:55:06
echosystm: restarting ssh i mean
petemc 2017-03-02 16:55:39
bringing up a von that changes your routing will drop existing connections
petemc 2017-03-02 16:55:45
no way around that
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:55:53
ok
georgia 2017-03-02 16:56:48
I have playback set to analog-output because the HDA HDMI card is "unplugged"
georgia 2017-03-02 16:57:50
I know what youre thinking, in alsamixer you have it set to pulseaudio! Well when I set it as Intel HDMI in alsa it's still unplugged
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:58:12
haha petemc there is a connection script that addresses this
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:58:20
absolutely undocmented anywhere
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 16:58:31
georgia: pulseaudio does not share unless you do a networked config.
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:58:36
found it purely by chance by searching find / -name '*vpn*'
echosystm 2017-03-02 16:58:46
fml
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 16:58:54
georgia: the user that started pulseaudio hogs the audio
petemc 2017-03-02 16:59:11
echosystm: what does it say?
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 16:59:57
georgia: baring the .config/pulse/client.conf ... default server = 127.0.0.1 ... if you're not offloading it to another computer.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:00:12
I'm using my own computer. I'm the only user on it
georgia 2017-03-02 17:00:27
I am the user that started pulseaudio
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 17:00:47
but root isn't the user (probably)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:03
I tried playing that sound as root
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:07
did not work
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:30
my hardware is fine because this worked with GNOME. apparently XFCE has some problems with autoconfiguring sound
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:32
I
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:38
pressed enter too soon...
georgia 2017-03-02 17:01:54
I'll say what XFCE mixer says
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 17:02:40
georgia: default-server
georgia 2017-03-02 17:03:59
It has the options 1. HDA Intel HDMI (Alsa mixer) 2. HDA Intel PCH (Alsa mixer) 3. Playback: Built in Audio Digital Stereo (HDMI) (PulseAudio Mixer)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:04:20
4. Playback: Built in Audio Analog Stereo (PulseAudio Mixer)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:04:42
and then it has my microphones which don't matter right now
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 17:05:44
And that's in the wm? or pavucontrol?
georgia 2017-03-02 17:05:45
I am set to HDA Intel HDMI and have enabled the "switches". Alsamixer is also set to the same card.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:05:54
That's in xfce audio mixer
georgia 2017-03-02 17:06:36
I'll get pavucontrol screenshot. The problem is HDA HDMI whatever is "unplugged"
Shadow_7 2017-03-02 17:06:41
georgia: cat /proc/asound/cards ... they're probably all the same card, just differnt parts of it. hw:0,0 hw:0,3 ...
userro 2017-03-02 17:07:48
what happened to ifconfig? It's not available
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:08:19
use full path. /sbin/ifconfig
georgia 2017-03-02 17:08:20
by the way, thank you :)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:08:40
I wouldn't be surprised if they are integrated. It's a laptop.
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:09:12
georgia: jessie?
georgia 2017-03-02 17:09:25
I'm Jessie's girl. :P
userro 2017-03-02 17:09:33
missmbob, it's package is not available
georgia 2017-03-02 17:09:57
Yeah. I have a stupid buggy prop BIOS I can't replace and somehow when I upgraded to stretch the GRUB dummy stopped working
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:10:11
georgia: are you running debian jessie?
georgia 2017-03-02 17:10:16
yes
georgia 2017-03-02 17:10:24
I had to dd zero my 1 TB drive
georgia 2017-03-02 17:10:31
and installed good old jessie
georgia 2017-03-02 17:10:33
8.7
userro 2017-03-02 17:10:33
stretch didn't work for me either
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:10:34
georgia: try upgrading your kernel from 3.16 to 4.9 using jessie-backports
georgia 2017-03-02 17:10:51
Isn't that erm... dangerous?
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:10:58
georgia: no
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:11:25
georgia: https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/
georgia 2017-03-02 17:11:25
The thing is, my sound worked with GNOME 3
georgia 2017-03-02 17:11:59
Hey, I've used backports plenty of times
georgia 2017-03-02 17:12:09
I try to avoid it because dependency hell ensues
georgia 2017-03-02 17:12:14
I've had some fun times.
missmbob 2017-03-02 17:12:39
then you havent done it right. the whole point of backports is stable deps. but whatever. i dont know then.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:13:10
The packages are stable but the dependencies get messy.
echosystm 2017-03-02 17:13:23
petemc: it says it preserves sshd connections when the routing changes
userro 2017-03-02 17:13:27
so stretch will not work with 3.10 kernel?
echosystm 2017-03-02 17:13:31
dunno how. it works. all is well in the garden.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:13:51
Okay getting that screenshot...
petemc 2017-03-02 17:16:53
echosystm: thats a bold statement it makes
petemc 2017-03-02 17:17:11
they must have reinvented tcp

georgia 2017-03-02 17:23:52
unfortunately I couldn't show all the selectable options. I'll list them
georgia 2017-03-02 17:24:37
under built-in analog audio stereo there are two more options: 1. analog output 2. headphones (unplugged)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:26:46
in configuration, the options for the digital sound are: 1. Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (unplugged) 2. Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (unplugged) 3. Digital Stereo (HDMI) Output (unplugged) and 4-6 are Digital Surround 5.1 (HDMI) Output (unplugged)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:27:55
The analog audio has options: 1. Analog Stereo Output 2. Analog Stereo Duplex 3. Analog Stereo Input (and 4. off)
georgia 2017-03-02 17:30:24
I don't know why it's unplugged. I have searched the web and all the people with that problem have nvdia drivers or whatever. I don't.
echosystm 2017-03-02 17:30:52
petemc: nevermind i misunderstood
georgia 2017-03-02 17:32:11
I will try any config of the above
georgia 2017-03-02 17:32:26

Allen_Oaks 2017-03-02 17:35:15
i made my first million in fourth grade.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:35:20
Go to off-topic.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:35:29
Oh, there he goes.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:35:55
So yeah, my sound
somiaj 2017-03-02 17:36:55
what sound driver/module is being loaded?
georgia 2017-03-02 17:37:13
Here's a run-down: hardware works. link http://pastebin.com/vfvVrtQH << pastebin
georgia 2017-03-02 17:37:23
Oh I'll check
georgia 2017-03-02 17:38:04
lspci -k gives me...
somiaj 2017-03-02 17:38:12
the snd-hda-intel driver covers tons of various chips
georgia 2017-03-02 17:38:33
yup

somiaj 2017-03-02 17:38:51
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto -- that is the alsa level, you can see if there are different models for your codec that sometimes work better than what is auto detected
somiaj 2017-03-02 17:39:05
that is kinda oudated for pulse, but I only know a bit about the alsa layer as I don't use pulse
georgia 2017-03-02 17:39:28
I have already gone through ubuntu's sound config guide. But not the intel specific one, thanks.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:39:35
will check out now
georgia 2017-03-02 17:41:43
my alsa is up to date
georgia 2017-03-02 17:42:46
Anyway, my sound worked with gnome. This isn't a hardware or driver/firmware/kernel problem. It's a configuration problem compounded by HDMI thing being unplugged.
georgia 2017-03-02 17:43:13
Basically, I have 3 ways of configuring sound, all important.... 1. xfce audio mixer. 2. pavucontrol 3. alsamixer
georgia 2017-03-02 17:43:36
Logically I have tried getting each set on the same card/playback whatever
georgia 2017-03-02 17:44:02
When they are all set on analog audio output...
