New Thunderbird 115.3.1, no disk space?? [SOLVED]

Eh... So, new update, new UI. But now I can no longer download (or send) e-mail. I get prompts about read/write access, or lack of disk space. Never happened before, and I have 100+ Gb free on /home. I tried to dig through Mozilla's support site, but couldn't find anything remotely similar to actual...

Re: Looking for help tracing a rogue notification icon

If this hasn't been resolved yet, I'll just chime in and say that I recognize it as a calendar reminder. Not sure if I get those from Thunderbird or GNOME Calendar, but those are my two cents.

Re: Translation issue, Swedish

Heh, fair enough! Thanks, I'll do just that. I got some... troubling signs when I tried to report it as a bug, but I didn't attempt direct messaging at the time.

Translation issue, Swedish

Here's a thing that's been annoying me a little on the rare occasions that I find reason to change display settings: Display-miss.png I had a look at the strings on Launchpad (... I hope), and I won't rule out that the problem is in the original. First, check that 'Display' refers to two different s...

Re: Have internet, but no video streaming [Solved-ish?]

... What even... And now it works again. Dumb PC! Maybe power-cycling the modem and then restarting the PC did the trick? Cosmic rays, excess static electricity in the room for whatever reason? Graphics card having an off day? Weird. I did look at the browser configuration, and I thought the DRM-con...

Have internet, but no video streaming

I feel I'm bashing my head against the wall, here, and maybe this problem will even go away on its own, but... Help me troubleshoot? My internet is working fine. I can access this site, I can access other sites, I can watch YouTube on a laptop running Win10 (browser: Chrome) - but using the latest F...

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

On today's boot-up the sound works perfectly. I guess Timidity was the cause. I'll go and mark the thread as solved. A big thank you for taking the time! (Oh well. Reinstalling had the added benefit that my printer now works as it should - it hadn't printed from Mint in years - and appears to have s...

Great success? I putzed around on the internet-machine and discovered this: https://itsfoss.com/fix-sound-ubuntu-1304-quick-tip/ I tried everything in the main article, and nothing helped. However, I then spotted a comment about removing timidity. I did that, and... it's looking good at the moment! ...

Oh, hey! Rebooting after reinstall, the sound Just Works(tm)! Shutting down - because rebooting blocks my network connectivity for whatever reason - and then restarting for some updates, mucking around some more, getting things back in order, and... after the next restart, all I see is HDMI out. cat...

I did an online upgrade from 19.3 to 20, yes. (Heh, I even did that before it was an official upgrade path. Amazed I only ran into problems like this now. #Rebel )

Right: I'm off to download that ISO. That's tomorrow all planned out...

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

I've been busy with some time-consuming real-life nonsense these last few days, including finding the time to take a shower. Oof. Anyway, the situation today is: Still need alsa force-reload to get analog sound. Should I just do a clean reinstall instead? uname -r 5.8.0-40-generic (I looked into how...

Will do. It is the same error message, but it cites the same location in the code and the same kind of problem: ~$ sudo alsa force-reload [sudo] //password prompt, *snip* Terminating processes: 1269 1893 1893 11835 11835 11835 11835 12210 12210 12210 12210 12210 (with SIGKILL:) 12617 12617 12617 126...

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

Fresh after reboot, output is: options snd-oxygen Currently only digital sound options... For what it's worth, I think something else has happened. Possibly associated with a kernel update. I'll revert to 5.4 when I'm done for the day, see if that helps on Sunday. The warnings about libkmod-parsing ...

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

Oof... Just updated my kernel (now 5.8.0-40), and analog sound is missing again. I'll just run the tee command again, then reload ALSA for this session... Uh, eep! :shock: Unloading ALSA sound driver modules: snd-hrtimer snd-hda-codec-realtek snd-hda-codec-generic snd-hda-codec-hdmi snd-hda-intel sn...

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

Ran the tee command, just logged in after coming home from work, and... I get sound! I'll see tomorrow if it really does persist, but this is definitely promising!

(Hm, I wonder if online distribution upgrades - ie. 17->18->19 etc. - could have introduced the weirdness in the first place?)

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

Coming right up:

Code: Select all

cat /boot/config-5.8.0-38-generic | grep CONFIG_SND_OXYGEN
CONFIG_SND_OXYGEN_LIB=m
CONFIG_SND_OXYGEN=m
I took the liberty of running that command for other sound hardware, and they all get '=m'.

Re: Analog sound out seemingly not detected in presence of digital out, Mint 20

I was sure I hadn't reloaded ALSA at that time... Well, anyway, I'll run those commands again on my next boot-up.
