Notification.ogg

[ggesus97]

Can someone upload Notification.ogg and Logout.ogg files? I would like to use those sounds in another Linux distribution but I can not seem to find any resources online for me to download.

Thanks

Hello, ggesus97.

On Linux Mint the installed sound files can be found inside the base folder /usr/share/sounds.
Navigate to this folder using your graphical file-manager.
Then click on the looking glass icon and enter the sound file name, which you want to search for.
You can copy the found sound files to a USB pendrive e.g. in order to transfer them from there to a different system.

If you prefer the commandline then you can search for the 2 filenames Notifications.ogg and Logout.ogg using this commandline:

Code: Select all

find /usr/share/sounds -name Notification.ogg -o -name Logout.ogg

Here on my LM 19.3 xfce system the commandline above comes back empty, because none of the 2 filenames exist here.

Code: Select all

find /usr/share/sounds -name *notification.ogg -o -name *logout.ogg

returns precisely 1 file here:

Code: Select all

$ find /usr/share/sounds -name *notification.ogg -o -name *logout.ogg
/usr/share/sounds/LinuxMint/stereo/desktop-logout.ogg

Your results may be different.
HTH,
Karl

Hello.

I am aware of where the files are located but i do not have Mint installed from which I can extract it, hence me asking if someone here would be kind enough to upload the files for download.

Correction:

In addition to /usr/share/sounds, more Mint specific sound files can be found inside /usr/share/mint-artworks.
The 2 specific files, which you mentioned are here:
/usr/share/mint-artwork/sounds/logout.ogg
/usr/share/mint-artwork/sounds/notification.oga
Note:
The filenames are all lowercase. notification.oga is an .oga file, not an .ogg file.

All the Mint specific sound files can be found inside the Linux Mint software package mint-artwork.
The precise download package name varies between Linux Mint releases.
But you can find the most recent mint-artwork package here:
http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/m/mint-artwork/mint-artwork_1.5.5_all.deb

As you are not a Linux Mint user, I am not quite sure, why you need the Mint specific sound files.
Anyway. You are free to download the mint-artwork_1.5.5_all.deb installation package.

Thank you very much. Exploring the .deb file revealed the sounds to be in /usr/share/sounds/LinuxMint/stereo. Was able to extract them easily there after.

As to why i want the sounds? I used to use Linux Mint a few years ago and I liked those tones quite alot. Think they are quite elegant and simple and work great as Start-up and Shut-down sounds. : )
