The Board: yes HDMA Video: Yes HDMA Sound: Sorta I have really good results with my Nvidia card, not that, it will help you any. eSATA Hotplug: Yes I use in on Ubuntu servers, but should be roughly the same on desktops Max File System/File size: is highly dependant on configuration. Ext3 for example could support partitions up to 32 TiB. On PCs ...

In general this is what live CD are for, you boot it up and see if your hardware works. You can check various online lists for supported hardware if you like, but, such lists are for the most part user maintained and support is going to vary by kernel version. If you are purchasing hardware, definitely check compatibility lists. http://www.h-node.org/ ...

Downgrading to linux kernel 3.5.0.30 solves the problem. Keep the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="radeon.audio=1" in /etc/default/grub When starting the system, in GRUB2 menu, select "Advanced options" and some old linux kernel to start (3.5.0-30-generic in my case). If the sound works, remove the files of the 3.8 linux kernel from the /boot directory (need ...

Try to play with xrandr, it has definitely more options, but you have to get into console... After you define your screens correctly, then they maybe start working correctly in arandr/grandr.

My girlfriend just came across this issue on her first day of trying to use Ubuntu on her HP laptop. The solution for her was to follow Charlie Schams's suggestion at http://askubuntu.com/a/234784/69183 In short, some sound devices seem to have multiple profiles, and each of these profiles might expose different outputs to the Ubuntu sound settings dialog. ...

I have the same receiver and the same problem. I have discovered that changing the resoultion actually makes the sound work. Setting res to 720p or 1080i gives me sound. Not sure why but it could be some kind of handshaking problem. 1080p is of course prefferable but until someone have found out why, this might help you. I have read on other pages that a ...

I did some more searching and came across this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution . This is the part that helped me :) Adding undetected resolutions Due to buggy hardware or drivers, your monitor's correct resolutions may not always be detected. For example, the EDID data block queried from your monitor may be incorrect. If the mode already ...

I have an AMD 6550D, and sound worked fine previously. It stopped working when I upgraded to 13.04. It was a frustrating experience getting sound to work. First, I followed the instructions here: http://voices.canonical.com/david.henningsson/2012/04/14/audio-over-hdmi-and-displayport-in-ubuntu-12-04/ Then, I dicked around with the BIOS sound settings a ...

That is what is called a ppa. It is just a place you can add to apt so it gets updated also. What you need to do is add the ppa to your system and update it... Here is what I did when 13.04 came out and it worked for my HDMI sound issue. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

This issue exists since Linux 3.0 "Due to some people having blank screens linked to the HDMI audio support in the open source Radeon driver, HDMI audio is now disabled by default. However, if you used the HDMI audio before upgrading to Linux 3.0, you'll notice your sound doesn't work anymore. To re-enable HDMI audio, in /boot/grub/menu.lst, add this to ...

hdmiaudio out may only properly work in kernel 3.6 and later (we're talking open source radeon driver). 12.10 is only up to 3.5? So closed source or else learn to upgrade your kernel (you'll learn a lot but it will take you quite a number of hours to invest). I know the radeon driver sources say that hdmi audio is working as of 3.5 but not as universally as ...

I succeeded on my laptop with external HDMI : see my blog here I still need to figure out - at least if it's not a bug from the drivers - how to get everything working when actually NOT using HDMI because in my case it doesn't work (with nvidia drivers), but some others reported it's working. Maybe you'll have better luck ! Cheers!

Not sure if I am meant to post this under my question but I managed to get the sound through HDMI working :) :) The fix: Type "alsamixer" in the terminal and use the right arrow to go to S/PDIF and S/PDIF 1. Mine was set to "MM"(mute) push the letter "M" to unmute, it will change to "00" now press "Esc" and enter "sudo alsactl store" close the terminal and ...

I was able to remap the channels of my analog card like this cp /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/profile-sets/default.conf ~/.pulse/rotatedProfile.conf I edited that file so that the channel map for my configuration is as I wanted [Mapping analog-surround-51] device-strings = surround51:%f channel-map = ...

Figured it out! At some point during my OS reinstall, I managed to re-enable Optimus in the BIOS. I disabled Optimus in the BIOS again, rebooted, and voila! All is right with the world again.

I just realised I had this problem after reading this post. I followed this page to update my kernel, which fixed the problem: https://github.com/GM-Script-Writer-62850/Ubuntu-Mainline-Kernel-Updater#readme As for the kernel update not fixing the problem in your case, be sure you've checked all the possibilities like for example that the volume is not ...

Have you tried the mainline kernel? That should work if there is no hdmi audio option in your sound options If you have sound but not in flash look here

it's a known bug. Review & subscribe to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169984 The bug report has workarounds while we wait for a fix to be committed. The workaround which works for everyone is to use the mainline 3.8 kernel as described in the report.

I was facing the same problem. The following link helped me resolve it : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2139459&page=3&p=12621337#post12621337 Hope it works for you too :) Cheerz !

Radeon HDMI Linux Audio Might Be Restored Soon: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTM1MTM

Yes, it's a kernel bug introduced around mid-April (by ubuntu I think). Generic kernels don't have the problem. Nor do ubuntu kernels before mid April. subscribe to this bug report to keep up to date on it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169761

It's bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1169761 The kernel team introduced this by picking and choosing patches. The generic 3.8 kernel doesn't have it, and Ubuntu 13.04 kernels older than a mid-April are also ok. I'm sure this is getting a lot of attention since it affects so many.

To my knowledge there is a bug in the 3.9.0-19-generic kernel that causes this, you can use the mainline kernel till it is fixed, here is a easy installer for it https://github.com/GM-Script-Writer-62850/Ubuntu-Mainline-Kernel-Updater

I don't know if it is the problem you are facing, but there is a bug in kernel (see here and here) that makes sound card driver crash on boot. To verify if it is indeed the same problem, check in var/log/syslog for something like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at <address> This should be fixed in the following days/weeks. ...

It's a known bug for about a couple of weeks. The kernel in 13.04 is buggy. Solutions are to use a newer kernel or an older kernel. Hopefully this will be fixed soon; there will be many people affected by this (like everyone using Ubuntu to drive a media PC). https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1169761

I don't have your hardware to verify (I can tell you it works fine on the previous hardware generation) this but I know my NVidia HDMI audio is broken on 13.04, the same fix may work for you this issues should be fixed in the next kernel update, in the meantime the mainline kernel (either 3.9rc8 or 3.8.8) should fix it Manual way: ...

Do you actually want to run a new session on the other monitor, or do you just want to be able to run applications (like mplayer) on the other monitor? I wasn't clear from reading your question. I have an ASUS N56VM and I was able to get mplayer running on the external monitor (connected with HDMI) using bumblebee. Audio doesn't work, unfortunately. I ...

I am user of ubuntu 12.04 64-bit. I will give the solution. When I plug the hdmi cable from my laptop to my led tv the screen is black. When I press the keys Fn+F4 i have the screen on my laptop and my tv too. Look you don't have to install ati x.org drivers. I have installed the flgrx drivers. The only thing is to install the pulseaudio. Open the ...
