SPLinux 380 May 24, 2012 Share May 24, 2012 BTW, can you use Linux with a windows server, i'm pretty sure you can oh and yes, with software called samba, you can connect to window's servers http://www.samba.org/ many distro's already have it pre installed I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyPoni 564 May 24, 2012 Share May 24, 2012 Pulseaudio, I can't seem to find the binaries anywhere. Do you have any other decent global equalizers (I tried EQ100Q and I just had a lot of trouble with it) or know of the binaries for this? Type pulseaudio in the terminal, what does it say? oh and yes, with software called samba, you can connect to window's servers http://www.samba.org/ many distro's already have it pre installed I believe. Would it work for a, say, shared server like you find in schools? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_wesley125 393 May 24, 2012 Author Share May 24, 2012 Type pulseaudio in the terminal, what does it say? "E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running.E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any other decent global equalizers (I tried EQ100Q and I just had a lot of trouble with it) or know of the binaries for this? really, pulseaudio should be in most package repositories, what distro are you using? here is someone compiling it from git, it should help: http://colin.guthr.ie/2010/09/compiling-and-running-pulseaudio-from-git/ i am sorry but i don't know much about global equalizers...

SPLinux 380 May 24, 2012 Share May 24, 2012 Thanks! How am I going to teach this to scouts? Let them know that Linux and Windows are different operating systems, its like they speak different languages, they need something to help them understand each other and that's what samba is for. it helps windows and Linux to be able to communicate with each other don't get too technical, break it down to bits (lolz) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IvoryVinyl 48 May 24, 2012 Share May 24, 2012 BTW, can you use Linux with a windows server, i'm pretty sure you can Yes you can. You do need to download Samba on the Linux computer though. Signature by PixiGlow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dual boot, but the Windows 7 on my computer stopped working correctly and Im thinking of putting it out of it's misery (Hard for me, Since I seem to feel like computers and OS's have feelings). I can't figure out how to fix it and I never use it (linux mint is all I use) Should I try to save it (this sound dumb, but humor me)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's dead weight on my HDD I found my thread :-) if anypony needs some Linux help i would be happy to help :-) Actually, I was wondering what the linux swap partition is for. I'm afraid to touch it in case it's really important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
