FS#467 - no audio, fine tune after each boot up, cannot shut down, E17-Compiz
Attempting to escape from prisoner status at M$. Have tried many distros over past few months, E17-Compiz my favorite so far. Have downloaded and installed latest version, 1.9.40 and during installation process, of course, installer verfied my download as being good.
Problem 1) No audio, Audacity (the Denon player)and Audio CD extractor both DEAD, nothing happens, no instruction. However, when I play a DVD, using movie player, I have sound? Either bug or are there special codecs that need to be downloaded to play CD’s and MP3‘s?
Problem 2) Each and EVERY time I boot E17-compiz, after it finalizes, a window pops up saying it needs to “fine tune”. This process takes almost 10-15 mins and always ends with: ERROR: Module slamr does not exist in /proc/modules. It would seem something in the loading of the info off the Live CD is incompatible? I have deleted and re-installed whole system, same problem, cannot stop/prevent “FINE TUNE”
Problem 3) E17-Compiz will NOT shut down. Go to System, power off and a window pops up advising of shut down, but stating: “please wait” After 10 minutes of waiting, still nothing happening. This problem happens every single time requiring me to Alt + SysRq+O to get out. Perhaps the shut down and fine tune are related as E17-compiz is not shutting down properly and is noted on the next boot triggering the “fine tune”.
If these are not “bugs” (although I have spent hours on each problem) please advise corrective measures in simple, easy to follow instruction. I note forum is not much help on most problems and this is one thing that really discourages people who are trying to leave M$ from going to Linux.
I am happy to pay for support or even to financially invest in this project as I like what I see, but am discouraged that basic things like sound, boot up and shut down do not work. I can understand and appreciate E17-Compiz is not stable, but one would think basics such as these would be way beyond the unstable/in development mode.
Thanks for any help you can provide and if bugs, I hope they can be corrected asap.
