Ubuntu 9.04 on Dell Vostro 1510 Mic Problems

Posted Mon, 09/28/2009 - 11:31 by Swift Arrow

I've been running Ubuntu on my Dell Vostro 1510 ever since I got it. Ubuntu has lasted, while my XP partition and my MacOS X (yes, it worked, and almost worked like a charm) have all been requisitioned for higher purposes. But I never (until now) managed to get Ubuntu to work perfectly... there was always one small nagging problem... the Microphone.

Ubuntu Studio

Posted Fri, 09/04/2009 - 15:51 by Swift Arrow

Recently upgraded my plain vanilla Ubuntu Jaunty to Ubuntu Studio. I was pretty worried that I would miss something, because Ubuntu Studio comes as a separate distribution. As it turned out, all I had to do was open synaptic and mark all the ubuntustudio packages to be installed, and wait all night.
