How exactly did you solve it then ?Ether wrote:@fredx181 & @rcrsn51
Sound is working now.
Thanks for hanging in there and helping me.
/root/.asound.rc file was missing.

I created the file /root/.asound.rc and put the following contents in it:fredx181 wrote:How exactly did you solve it then ?
If it would be helpful, I can start with a fresh install and take detailed notes and screenshots.Ether wrote:Thank you both. It's working now.

I have a pair of powered speakers plugged into the blue 3.5 mm stereo (TRS) jack on the back of the machine. Audio is on mobo I think, not a separate sound card.Is this output to analog speakers or something like HDMI?
Ether wrote:Hmm.
Before I created /root/.asound.rc the card selector said card1. Now it says card0.

I use the musl variant with dwm. Whatever the distro I have an Ubuntu 18.04 chroot whenever I need a package that doesn't exist, requires Ubuntu or a PPA, or requires glibc.
I love Void because it's lean and hackable, in the Unix tradition. The packages are split, and if you're willing to spend time with it you can really remove a lot of cruft, even more than Debian because it doesn't use systemd.
In my case I wrote my own udev scripts plus devmon so I don't require gvfs (even my smartphone mounts automatically), or actually anything from a DE, it's all CLI. No need for polkit, pulseaudio, glibc, or xdg either, it's Linux your way.
To sum up: it's still a hackable binary distro, there's no monolith, there are few processes by default and you can swap any core part of the system, unlike Arch, Ubuntu or Fedora which have turned into an Open Source Windows-like system.
Get yourself a Void chroot and try it now
FWIW, I never got this to work with my Samsung S4.Ether wrote:.
Problem downloading files from Samsung Android phone to PC running Bionic Dog 32bit via USB data cable. See attached error message.
Is fixing this a simple matter of downloading/installing something using Synaptic? I tried some search terms but could not find anything that matched the error message.
Bionic Dog 32bit 2018-06-24 does not work.
DebDog Jessie 32bit does not work.
Xenial Pup 32bit works fine out of the box.
Bionic Pup 64bit works fine out of the box.
It works fine with Xenial Pup and Bionic Pup and a full-up installation of Ubuntu 18.04dancytron wrote:

I've had Dog to Android transfers working in the past (wrote about it on some thread here, but forget which one). However, it was flaky (sometimes failed to connect), so I tend to use other means nowadays (e.g. last time I installed sftp server daemon on android and used sftp for transfer). I think the method I originally used involves setting up MTP as described in links below.Ether wrote:.

Several tools provide a FUSE based file system for mounting MTP devices within the Unix filesystem hierarchy, making it accessible to any program that operates on files and directories. Examples include mtpfs, jMTPFS, go-mtpfs and simple-mtpfs, etc...
mtp-tools
install package name=mtp-tools
TODO: document usage, but see below.
jmtpfs
Uses FUSE to mount your device's MTP structure into a POSIX filesystem, and fusermount to unmount the device.
install package name=jmtpfs
create <directory> as your mount point: $ mkdir -p <directory>
make sure you have write access to <directory>: $ sudo chown $USER:$USER <directory>
to mount your device: $ jmtpfs <directory/>
On some MTP devices: your screen must be unlocked in order to mount. However, you might get a (spurious) input/output error even if the screen is unlocked.
to unmount your device: $ fusermount -u <directory/>
mtpfs
mtpfs has been orphaned since Squeeze, anyway mtpfs is very similar to jmtpfs, except for the executable name, package name, and package status
install package name=mtpfs
to mount your device: $ mtpfs <directory/>
to unmount your device: $ fusermount -u <directory/>
You mean how to install it?Ether wrote:.
I've never used deb files.
While I'm busy searching, if someone could post a link to a beginner's guide I'd be grateful.

Thx. I'll try that.dancytron wrote:
Right click on the .deb file. Choose "install .deb" or similar.
