Hello SMG,

you are not the first person who has given feedback to indicate it did not work

But above Lady Fitzgerald wrote:

I tried

Code: Select all

xrandr --output DP-2 --brightness 0.7

and it worked fine.

I have the impression, that you have not the whole permissions over your system. When you run the following command in the terminal, do you get an output? sudo find ~/ -user root If there are outputs, please run the following command and try the brightness control again with a reboot: sudo chown -Rc...

I tried it myself and it works for me. Is your command enabled in the Startup Applications?

You can add the command to the Startup Applications. Open the menu, type startup in the search field, click on Startup Application, press the + button at the bottom, choose Custom command. Then choose a name like brightness control and add as command xrandr --output DP-2 --brightness 0.6 and click s...

This looks good. You are missing the sof-byt-max98090.tplg firmware like in the other case. You can follow the solution there and then I think you will soon have sound on your Chromebook: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=372176

Hola osvald,

Me alegré mucho de hacerlo y de haberme librado del ruido Si ya está resuelto para ti, por favor, edita tu primer post y añade [RESUELTO] al título

Hello YusS FIN, I don't know if I have understood all, but let me ask some questions: Ever since I changed from W10 Do you have now a dual boot with Windows? 1st Problem: From your description it seems for me, that you could solve this problem with the equalizer from pulseeffects. Is that right? I o...

You're welcome I'm happy, that you could solve it with Cinnamon and I think, the hardware is good enough to run properly with it.

I'm courious if it holds

It is a pity that the instructions from the video did not work. It looked so promising.

Thank you. As you can see, there are many unconnected pins, which you can try to connect for your headphones. You can begin with for example with 0x1c, tick override and press Apply now. If there is an error, repeat it (some say, you could ignore the error). Then test, if it works. You can also try ...

I'm sorry, but no one is into the technical details of why it sometimes doesn't want to work. You could try the 19.3 versions of Mate or Cinnamon, where you also find 32bit editions in live systems. Maybe you will have success with them?

You're welcome :) I don't know, why it don't work (it could be related to your audio software OBS. I already had a case where OBS caused a problem), but when all is working now after the reinstall of the sound system, there is no need for pavucontrol. You can remove it with the following command: su...

I tested my headset again and it is working

This is a success. In your first post you wrote:

My logitec usb headset will not work.

Then let's try reinstalling the PulseAudio VolumeController and test it again:

Is it possible to purge all audio and start fresh? Yes, we can uninstall and reinstall it. But please make a manual timeshift snapshot before, so you could easily restore the actual state, if something goes wrong. Close all sound related programs which may be open (three lines, one after the other)...

With the command sudo apt-get install pavucontrol you installed the PulseAudio VolumeController (another configuration tool like the Sound Settings). But pulseaudio is the basic sound server in LM (and other Linux systems) and you wrote: I believe this is due to installing/uninstalling PulseAudio Wh...

I expected something different. Is pulseaudio no longer installed?

You're welcome

Wife will be happy, or at least, I'll be happy on her behalf.

both is important

Something seems to be disturbed. Is it right, that you have tried all the fixes of MrEen I'm just thinking about point 6 of the "No Sound Fix Tips")? Then let us try an unconvential method, which I suggest, when something suddenly don't work anymore for no apparent reason. Please shutdown ...

Perfetto, allora abbiamo fatto tutto bene. Congratulazioni
