Re: Unlocking HamPC


 

John,

If you are getting audio from Xubuntu 22.04 on the same PC where HamPC does not deliver audio, then there is something missing on HamPC, and I will need to investigate.

I want HamPC and HamPi to be the best they can be for all users. I am but one person, and I have a very limited selection of PCs available, so reports like yours are critical for me to identify and correct deficiencies. Thank you for your report.

Can you please file a bug report at ?

73,

I had a DVD with full Ubuntu 22.04.1 already burned, so while I burned Xubuntu DVD, I booted the 7480
off of the full Monte.
Audio worked fine with that. I listened to internet radio on the built-in speakers without issue.

Then, I booted off of Xubuntu and had the same experience. Out-of-the-box XUbuntu sees the 7480 audio
devices and loads the proper drivers.

I suspect either the process that I am using to install hamPC to the internal SSD drive is not working
or something may be missing in the hamPC image.

My process was to boot LINT from a live USB and then use its image writing app to burn the hamPC
image to the internal SSD.

Hi John,

Thanks for the report.

I agree, the audio hardware would not seem to be the issue, rather the audio software components. If audio is also not present on Xubuntu 22.04, then I would say Xubuntu is the issue...

Hi Dave
Further testing of the 3.0.1 image on the Latitude 7480 has revealed an issue.
I see no audio devices and get no sound from the OS or any apps.
I tried adding drivers, but it does not seem to understand that audio hardware is present.

The audio works fine with MINT and Windoze 10, so I don't think the hardware is at fault.

At this time, I am burning a DVD to try bare bones Xubuntu 22.04.1 to see if it spots the audio hardware.
I will keep you posted.

Hi John,

All of my HamPC and HamPi users are of interest to me. Thanks for letting me know you got a good installation running on your Dell Latitude... 16GB of RAM and i7... Nice!

I hope it works out well for you.

I'm already working on HamPC 3.1...

Hi Dave
In case it is of any interest to you, I jut installed HamPC? 3.01 to a refurbished Dell Latitude 7480 notebook.
This sports 16GB of DDR4 memory and? came with a 256GB SSD drive and a core i7 CPU.
I booted it from a Lint USB drive and used the recover feature to install the hamPC image
to the internal SSD. Then ran gparted to grow the root partition. Seems to be working well.

Christopher,

Did Ernie say he was using a newer or older MacBook?

Hi Ernie,

The password to unlock the HamPC user is, simply, "hampc". This is documented at?

And are you saying HamPC runs on your x86 MacBook Pro? This is exciting news as I don't have a MacBook to test against.
