[solved] problem with Monkey's Audio Codec

hi, I need to split some .ape files. I have installed shntool, cuetools and so on, and there's no problem when splitting .flac files.
But it doesn't install the monkey's audio codec (mac) telling me that
/tmp/yaourt-tmp-root/aur-mac/mac/./PKGBUILD: line 19: patch: command not found
Error: Makepkg was unable to build mac package.
Any idea?

My sound is like echo and i can't solve the problem with realtek hd audio manager

HP G72 notebook
Windows 7 64 bit
Sound is like echo and can't solve problem with Realtek HD audio manager

It's a Qosmio X300-16M (windows 7 64bit)
I downloaded the last toshiba's sound driver (for win 7 64bit), but it's as if it doesn't contain MaxxAudio anymore... (but the file maxxaudio.dll is still in realtek directory)
It worked correctly after Windows 7 update, (that's why I tried to reinstall the audio drivers which were in the DVD... but it does not have resolved the problem.)
And all my system restore's points have been lost after a wrong bios update or something else (but this isn't a problem anymore)
Now, my computer works correctly, my only problem is that the MaxxAudio tab (from Waves Audio) in the realtek audio manager disappeared... (It just makes a better sound...)
And I just want to know if it's a curent problem or not... and if someone can fix it

Very urgent!! Problems with the H.263 codec on JMStudio

I downloaded the JMF Version 2.1.1e ' version.
The H.263 codec doesn't work.
I noticed that the file sound.jar wasn't in the lib directory of JMF-2.1.1e.
Is for this reason I have problems with the H.263 codec??
Thanks for your help.

What do you try to broadcast? H263 is a video codec, not audio..

[SOLVED]Problem with sound in HDMI

Hello good society of Arch
Now I have problems with sound from HDMI. I use Arch as an tvPc, wasting movies and tv shows on it. I use ALSA and it works well, except of a few files that I have, then there is picture but sound is either twisted or not played at all. It does not matter whether I use vlc or mplayer, I'm experiencing the same problem.
I have not found anything about this with google, other problems have been either hdmi sound working or not, not like it is with me, sometimes it works and sometimes it don't.
I know that the files are ok, I can play them in anther pc I have (also using Arch on that pc).
Does anybody know what the problem might be? What do I have to look at to find out what the problem is? This have been like this for some time now, but I haven't looked into it before, because I don't use TV that muts, but the wife does and when she stats blaming Arch, I have too do something about it.
I have never encountered problem with Arch that i cant solve by using this forum and google
Thanks

[solved]Problems with 82801H (ICH8 Family) sound

Hi!
I've got some problems with my sound.
I read http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=50047 (adding options in modprobe.conf)
I tried http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ALS … s_and_test
and followed http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Len … X300#Sound
But for some reason I simply can't get any sound at all.
My laptop is a lenovo x61s with
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
The modules (same as first link), are loaded without problems.
I've run alsaconf, checked modprobe.conf and modprobe.d/sound, looks ok
I get the channels in alsamixer, and my regular user is a member of audio group.
Trying e.g. vlc gives no error, simply no sound..
Following the test (second link, with aplay), gives no error.. simply no sound
I can't find anything in the logs..
The card worked perfectly in both Ubuntu and Slackware... so I can't see why it shouldn't work in Arch..
Help : )

Yeey I solved it!
It seems that snd-hda-intel module can't always recongnized what kind of soundcard you're using.
By supplying the correct model option to the module, I finally got my sound.
Available models are found in

For my laptop it was "thinkpad" : )

[SOLVED] Problem with passwd

Hey there,
I came to Arch because I wanted to learn how Linux works and I thought the best way to learn is start from scratch and work my way up to a finished product. Well I've been following the Beginners Guide wiki which has been a good guide to get up and running although it is a little scarce on describing why I was typing these commands and what effect they had... Anyways.
I can now boot into my new installation and that's the main thing...
Here's my situation:
From root I created a new user using "useradd -m -g users -G audio,games,lp,network,optical,power,scanner,storage,video,wheel -s /bin/bash rob"
I then did "passwd rob" then entered by password twice.
So my /etc/passwd looks like this:
I then type "exit" and try and login to rob using my newly set password but it still says my login is incorrect. I then try setting the password yet again from root but I still face the same problem.
What's going on? What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks

illusionist wrote:Why is there /usr/bash in your /etc/passwd ?
Yeah. I'm thinking he (mis)typed "-s /usr/bash" instead of "-s /bin/bash" when he created the password. It doesn't look like put himself in the "users" group either:
Robula wrote:From root I created a new user using "useradd -m -g users -G audio,games,lp,network,optical,power,scanner,storage,video,wheel -s /bin/bash rob"
My advice to the OP would be to delete that user and start again, putting himself only in "users" for now. We don't need to be in other groups now, unless we need to be.
Thank you! I didn't realize I had missed typed /bin/bash as /usr/bash... After correcting this I was able to change my password and login. Such a silly mistake...

A bit off the main topic - but to address you interest in learning: I suspect this scarcity is by design. This is a guide for beginners to get up and running, not necessarily an educational resource. You will find that for every command it tells you to use, you can also do `man command` and get plenty of additional reading material.
"man <command>", I've been messing around on and off with Linux for years and I have never come across this gem!
EDIT: The 'man' command is amazing! I've managed to solve my other problems with netcfg I was having by reading the man file. Thanks a bunch Trilby!
Thank you all for your replies, patience and helpfulness.

[solved] Problems with HAL

I am having problems with HAL. I first noticed it when trying to log out of XFCE an it was asking for my password and then I would see this message when X stopped:
xfsm-shutdown-helper.c:134: Failed to contact hal: The name org.freedesktop.Hal was not provided by any .services files
Hal is listed in my daemons of rc.conf
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond hal @fam @alsa)
I am part of the power group
[ryan ~]$ groups
disk lp wheel log locate network video audio optical storage scanner power users
I think there is something wrong with hal since it's not loading at boot and I can't start it once logged in
[ryan ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/hal stop
:: Stopping Hardware Abstraction Layer [FAIL]
[ryan ~]$ sudo /etc/rc.d/hal start
:: Starting Hardware Abstraction Layer [FAIL]
I don't know what to do. Searching for the 'xfsm-shutdown-helper' error says to look in .xsession-errors but I can't find that file. HAL should be loading at boot though and it is not so I think that is the cause of the error anyway.
This all started when I was trying to clean up goup.pacnew and gshadow.pacnew files.
Edit: solved

Problems with Nforce4 install - audio/ethernet/raid

Just installed my Neo4 Platinum Nforce4 with XP Home SP2. I have a problem with the drivers. I went to the Nvidia site and download both the Unified Drivers and the standalone Kit for XP.
The unified driver set didn't seem to do anything at all, it seemed to quit half way through the install without giving me any finished message. A quick look in device manager and I saw about seven items with yellow warnings!
I then tried the standalone kit which worked better, however after the install I am still left with 3 items in device manager that are giving me warnings. Multimedia Audio Controller, Ethernet Controll & Serial ATA RAID controller. I have no audio at all, I just the BIOS is all is OK, as it is for everything else. In the sound section of control panel there is no audio hardware available.
Can anyone help please? I dunno what I could have done wrong. It's a fresh install.

I have now done eveything you've said. I installed the Nforce drivers off the CD, and then installed Realtek, Ethernet & RAID via Live update. I also tried to do the NVMixer & Nvidia Audio install install. I installed realtek from the add/remove software menu. I then went into add new hardware and did manual install, show all hardware, have disk. Then I browsed to the Nvidia Audio codec folder on my desktop that I download. I was given an option of two drivers "nvmcp" & "nvmpu". I picked the first and ended up choosed "Nvidia audio codec interface" which then installed. It then appeared in device manager. However, when I clicked the audio panel in control panel I still get no audio device installed? I then tried to install NVMixer and when I try to run the application I get this message:
"the application cannot start because it could not detect any NVIDIA Nforce hardware on your system...."
What am I doing wrong? When I did the driver install there were two things listed in each driver "nvidia audio codec interface" and also "nvidia audio processing unit", which should I be choosing? Even if I try and installed the "MVP audio processing unit" I'll get a code(10) device cannot start in device manager. This is kinda confusing.
I also wondered about the RAID controller software. The silicon image drivers that came on the MSI seem horrible, they installed Java too. Is there any way to disable this controller? In the BIOS I can only see one option to enable RAID and when this is enabled device mananger will show an error on an "unknown device". I assume this is the NVRaid? and speaking of NVraid which is mentioned in big fat type on the back of the MSI box, so far I've seen or heard none of it during this installtion?

Problem with the IDT audio driver.

Hi
i got a problem with my audio driver yesterday. while watching a video the driver stopped working and it says that "no audio output installed". i tried reinstalling the idt software from hp website. but it is no help, in the middle of the installation process the computer is showing an error saying that the idt software is not compatible with the hardware detected.
I need my audio drivers as soon as possible as i have a presentation to do. Please help asap.!!

Hi
First uninstall the software from program and features.
Or, you can uninstall IDT Audio Driver from your computer by using the Add/Remove Program feature in the Window's Control Panel.
On the Start menu (for Windows 8, right-click the screen's bottom-left corner), click Control Panel, and then, under Programs, do one of the following:
Windows Vista/7/8: Click Uninstall a Program.
Windows XP: Click Add or Remove Programs.
When you find the program IDT Audio Driver, click it, and then do one of the following:
Windows Vista/7/8: Click Uninstall.
Windows XP: Click the Remove or Change/Remove tab (to the right of the program).
Follow the prompts. A progress bar shows you how long it will take to remove IDT Audio Driver.
Please try to install this software and see if this fixes your issue. In case this does not work try performing system restore to the date where unit was working fine.

[Solved] Problem with mouse cursor gnome3

Hi
I moved back to Archlinux after a brief stay in LMDE, and test the new GNOME3, I am unpleasantly surprised that after a while the mouse is moving himself toward the top of the screen. I searched the internet, and seems to be a problem with the gnome-shell for some time, but I am not able to find the solution.
Momentarily solved by restarting gnome with ALT + F2 + r + Enter, but after a while, same thing happens again.
Can be well with photography programs, but of course if you do not solve this issue, GNOME, I can not use
Can you give me a helping hand?
Thanks and regards
Rafa

I don't know about Gnome, but my laptop had that problem. I tracked it down the 3d accelerometer being used to simulate a joystick. Of course, I also had (previously) set up another joystick to operate as a mouse. In the end, the cursor "drifted" when the laptop was not level
YMMV

[SOLVED] Problem with MPD and ALSA

Hello, I'm having problems with mpd using alsa output.
My alsa system works, I can play mp3 using mplayer -ao alsa, and flash plugin plays sound, my user (and also mpd user)is in the audio group.
But then mpd can't open the alsa device.
If I tell mpd to autodetect audio, it can't find anything:
(Running as root to see output, if using /etc/rc.d/mpd start, it just fails)

Any Ideas?
Thank you.

Check that mpd is really being run as the mpd user, and that id lists audio for the mpd user. Also post your whole mpd.conf and the output from amixer when running as the user you run mpd as.

[SOLVED] Problem with Vuze and Java RE x86_64

Hello all !
First of all, sorry if this issue was posted before, but find no related issue similar to mine.
Using pacman, I successfully installed JRE (version 6u16-1-x86_64) and Vuze (version 4.2.0.8-1, former Azureus), but Vuze doesn't want to start.
Running the Vuze's executable in the gnome-terminal, I notice messages from vuze informing it can't find Java executable ("Java exec not found in PATH, starting auto-search..." AND "OOPS, unable to locate java exec in /usr/java/latest /usr/java /usr/lib/jvm/latest /usr/lib/jvm hierarchy") and therefore cannot start the Vuze UI. I also tried but failed in verify the version of Java with the command "java -version" due to command not found.
What is the best approach to fix this problem with Java 64 bits?
Thanks in advance

[SOLVED] Problem with symlinking and PKGBUILD

Hello Everyone,
I have created the javafx-sdk package on AUR, and make the installation a lot simplier. But I am having a problem with the creationg of the symlink.
So I have 1 binary file "javafxpackager" in the "bin" folder that I need to symlink into /usr/bin. This is the method I am using
mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/usr/bin
chmod +x ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/jvm/${pkgname}/bin/javafxpackager
ln -s ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/jvm/${pkgname}/bin/javafxpackager ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/javafxpackager
My problem is that this method doesn't work at all. The only way to me after the installation to make the symlink working is by doing this :
ls chmod +x /usr/lib/jvm/javafx-sdk/bin/javafxpackager
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/javafx-sdk/bin/javafxpackager /usr/bin/
In order to make it work.
How can I solve this problem ?
Thanks in Advance,
Luis Da Costa
Last edited by aliasbody (2012-06-26 00:27:15)

Problem solved ! Here's how to do it :
mkdir -p ${pkgdir}/usr/bin
chmod +x ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/jvm/${pkgname}/bin/javafxpackager
ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/javafx-sdk/bin/javafxpackager ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/javafxpackager
I didn't know, but you can symlink a file that doesn't exist yet, and this is what I did. I use and non existing (yet) javafxpackager binary from the non existing (yet) "/usr/lib/jvm/javafx-sdk/bin/" folder, and send it to the ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/javafxpackager, that will be copied into the original "/usr/bin/" folder.
So this problem is solved and I'm happy
(PS : thanks @ngoonee and @Trilby for you help ! Thanks to you I found out a little bit faster where the problem was ^^)

[SOLVED] Problem with "su" and "login".

Hi, I reinstalled Arch Linux today when I updated "filesystem" and reboot appeared an error with root device, but I solved with installation CD.
I restarted laptop after solving error with root device when I went to XFCE4 and open a terminal I tried to login as root with "su" and "su -" but showed this error:
bash: su: command not found
So I rebooted to start in text mode.
When loaded SLIM I press ctrl+alt+F1 to enter text mode.
I type root to login but did'nt appear to enter the pass, appeared again to enter login. I tried type my user but did the same.
Someone can help me?
Thanks!

Thank you falconindy. I upgrade with --force because I search in Google the problem show "filesystem" when I tried install and I read that solution is upgrade "filesystem" with --foce.
I tried to reinstall util-linux and now works. Thank you!
