Thats normal. Without a mixer the dialogue in the control center is incomplete.

alsamixer-gui not found.
And that just doesn't make sense.

Where's the documentation ? Is there even documentation installed for Gnome ?

Well, I sick of GNU/Linux for today, I'll try FreeBSD and see the video games support on it.

Your problem is that Gnome like other DEs does not supply a mixer on its own.

pavucontrol, alsamixer-gui are valid options to solve the issue.

Why then is there a sound entry in the gnome-control-center ? Everything is here but not configurable. That's strange.

I will explain my problem better.

I can't configure my audio settings with the Gnome's settings menu. And neither with the menu in the top bar. I'm searching what is missing for the GUI of Gnome, the one installed with the DE, to work.

Hello.

Just install package 

pavucontrol

and make sound card adjustment from this program....

That's not what I'm looking for. I'm trying to make Gnome working. Not installing random stuff to by pass the problem.

I created a ~/.asoundrc file

$ cat .asoundrc 
pcm.!default {
	type hw
	card 1
}

ctl.!default {
	type hw           
	card 1
}

I'm now able to play sound with the aplay command, so, the sound works with aplay but that's all.
Maybe I'm missing a package in Gnome to setting up the sound, but which one ? Because on XFCE the sound works. I tried on a Live USB of Devuan.

Keep searching ! ^^

Hello !
Fresh Daedalus installation, with Gnome as DE.
When I go to the settings there is no device listed but :

$ cat /proc/asound/cards
 0 [HDMI           ]: HDA-Intel - HDA ATI HDMI
                      HDA ATI HDMI at 0xfc820000 irq 72
 1 [Generic        ]: HDA-Intel - HD-Audio Generic
                      HD-Audio Generic at 0xfce00000 irq 74
 2 [U0x46d0x825    ]: USB-Audio - USB Device 0x46d:0x825
                      USB Device 0x46d:0x825 at usb-0000:09:00.3-2, high speed

When I try $ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav I have this error (sorry, it's in French but I'll try to translate it in English as good as I can)

$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav
aplay: main:831: erreur à l'ouverture audio : L'hôte cible est arrêté ou en panne

It says that the host is stopped or broken-down and it can't open audio.
My user is in the audio group.

Any help is welcome and if you need more informations tell me.
Thanks. : )

#7 Desktop and Multimedia » Wrong keyboard layout in GDM3 » 2023-11-29 05:48:55

Hello !
My keyboard layout in GDM3 is QWERTY but I need to configure it as AZERTY.
When I'm logged in in Gnome the keyboard layout is the good one.
Here my /etc/default/keyboard file :

# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="fr"
XKBVARIANT="latin9"
XKBOPTIONS="terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"

BACKSPACE="guess"

And my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/40-keyboard.conf file :

Section "InputClass"
	Identifier "keyboard"
	MatchIsKeyboard "on"
	Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
	Option "XkbVariant" "latin9"
	Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
EndSection

In Slim, I didn't have this problem.

I used to use the localectl command on Arch Linux. I don't know how to configure it on Devuan.
Any help is welcome

Hi,
I'm here to present myself with a few words (before asking for help on some random stuffs or whatever).
Swiitch, that's my name, I'm a GNU/Linux user since approximatively 16 years. I distro hop for a long time but I mainly use Arch Linux.
Now, I'm looking for a stable distro and without systemd (I don't like systemd, I don't like the name).
I'm going to dual boot Devuan GNU+Linux with OpenBSD. Devuan for daily driver (at the beginning) and OpenBSD because it's a challenge for me to make it works, and in the future use it as a daily driver. But let's begin on Devuan because it looks cool.
My goal is to learn. I want to stop procrastinating and playing video games or distro hop. I just want to have fun playing with my OS. And I'll give Devuan a try.
Voilà, see ya on another post.
