IMO you should point the repos back to testing and dist-upgrade again. You probably had already a system newer than Squeeze and then you pointed the repos to it. I don't know what may have happened but pulseaudio isn't the default in Debian (it's ALSA) and the newer versions are better so I suspect...

Eh, so sound problems somewhere else

I think it's a blue icon at the bottom right of the video screen.

Will check it right when it starts working. I was used to windows set up at work. Thanks!

I gave up on the 2.6.39 kernel!! But I switched my repos to squeezy, isnt it 2.6.37 ? I might have it updated first to this latest kernel and than switched to stable. Can I somehow get it back? I like thinks "to just work" and I am not a tweaking freak. Skype is a must for me I use the share screen...

The latest update to LMDE killed my recording. I think I have Pulsaudio. I have not updated for some time. Like 3 months. I used to have problems with Skype, but now there is just no recording possibility at all. I have tried to use the in stock Record app, and it gave me an error. I had to install ...

Great! Works like a charm. Thank you.

Hi I am not sure if it is a bug and I should put it on lunchpad. My LMDE opens just fine, shuts down just fine, but restarting does not work. I took a picture, of how it leaves me. When I just turn it off now and on again, does not seem to cause any problems. Could you tell me what information shoul...

Hi, you can try to boot the recovery mode. If it works and the terminal opens, update with the command sudo apt get-update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade It did not work, but there was another command that popped out as a suggestion so I did it and it worked out. you might find yourself having more k...

Hi Mint-ers I have been doing an update of my LMDE. It was having problems and I finally found out how to do it. It was having about 800MB of updates. It was in the evening and I was tired so I left it installing. I set up timer to switch computer off and since I have super fast internet I set it up...

Hey Blaite, Yes you can install x64bit along with x32 Windows. You may see little improvement but with 4GB ram you will not see a big increase. You may see some decrease depending on the app you are running. So it will be up to you in the long run. I would personally recommend x32 with PAE Kernel. ...

Thank you both. I googled the PAE thing and it seem to be OK for now. But for the future update, can I use 64tit version if i have 32bit windows too. And will i gain anything by switching? I have Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9300 @ 2.50GHz frequency 800.000 MHz l2 cache 6144 KB GeForce 8600M GS card ...

Hi guys I have been using Linux Mint for some time already. I had problems with Skype recording and trying to solve it did not work. So I reinstalled the system. I installed openSUSE, to see what it is. It was super fast and really nice, but had problems to update software. I am not into tweaking th...

Thanks for the welcome. The tool will be useful in the future but I guess I was not clear. I can't force my computer to capture sound from outside. It records sound from the software I use. It does not record me talking or anything from outside. It is not just about Skype. I checked in Recording too...

Hi guys I am such a "newbie" I don't even know where to post this message. I am solving all windows problems to all my friends (as a girl I understand the langue they use better than guys:-)). I use linux 3 years and I love it mostly for the thing that I don't need to know anything or the answer is ...
