Sound under Ubuntu causes problems

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Sound under Ubuntu – I wasn’t able to solve the problem entirely yet. But it is reported that it is getting much better than before. I hope that someday I will be able to watch DVD under Ubuntu and use audacity for recording at the same time. I was able to do that under Ubuntu 8.04. But then I did the upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 – and the playback function of the DVD was broken (sound distorted/scratched). By the way, I have similar problems under Windows XP.

It differs a little bit from my previous setup. My setup isn’t perfect yet, but the numer of x-runs is most of the time in an acceptable manner.

I just installed Wafesurfer (‘Applications’ > ‘Add/Remove…’). I had installed this program under Win XP. I hope that it will help me to understand more about acoustic phonetics.

Starting XAMPP under Intrepid Ibex

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

I just started XAMPP under Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex). I just had to type into the terminal the following command:

/opt/lampp/lampp start

I am using XAMPP under Windows XP. And I am happy that it works under Ubuntu, too. I will try to install WordPress MU under Linux as well as MediaWiki under Linux. I hope that it will work out.
