I've just installed ubuntu on my computer. Whenever I connect up my headphones, the sound still comes through the speakers. Is there some setting I need to change?

i am assuming it has to do with the way your sound driver re-routes the output. What is the make/model of your computer and your sound card?

i have a HP a1240n Media Center PC and the sound card is the stock one that came with it.

So your computer has the Realtek ALC 880 chipset according to the hp site.

Download the latest driver located below:
ftp://202.65.194.211/pc/audio/realtek-lin...k-4.06a.tar.bz2

Install and report back. If you need help installing let us know

Yea installing help would be nice. I'm a linux noob so I have a question mark on my head half the time....

[ditto]

It looks like the file has an automatic installation.

Before doing this, back up any files that you do not want to lose.

open up terminal (Alt-F2 then type gnome-terminal)

Now make a new directory to keep the downloaded file in. I like to use install

mkdir Installs

now download the file to that directory

cd Installs
wget ftp://202.65.194.211/pc/audio/realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.bz2

Extract the file

tar xvfj realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.bz2
cd realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a

Install

./install

I read on Ubuntu forums that the installation does not finish. Also, some people have reported losing all sound.
If this doesn't work, there is a manual installation method in the README file.

However, you can still post back with results and we'll help.
Good luck

try running the install script as root. So like this:

sudo ./install

This is what I got when I tried running the install script as root.

To fix this, install build-essential

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Then try again as root and output any errors.
The program will check your computer configuration, then compile, then install.

I'm trying to solve this issue, but now I'm getting errors at the load screen saying that the last session only lasted a few seconds or something like that. It tells me to load the failsafe session to fix the problem, but I don't know what to do since I'm still a noob. Should I repost this as a new topic?

[ditto]

did this happen after you tried to run the installation or after something else?

[dudefromjapan]

This happened after I tried installing the audiopack, but im not sure if that's what caused the problem.

[ditto]

Were there any error messages during the install?

look at the Xorg.0.log and search for EE lines and display them here.

sudo gedit Xorg.0.log

Unfortunately we may have to do a reinstall and compile that driver ourselves but lets wait for that just yet.
