New to Linux Ice

**pod25music** · 02-13-2011, 11:28 AM

I'm seriously considering changing my current in car operating system from Windows XP to Linux Ice.

My only real concern is my motherboard. Its a Mini ITX board, this board has a clever sound card, which allows me to change one of the inputs to a second output, so in other words, changing it from a 2 channel to a 4 channel.

Would it still be possible to do that using Linux ?

I guess by the lack of replies no one knows or its not possible.

This would be something you need to check with alsa/pulse audio as linuxice doesn't have anything to do with switching those inputs/outputs.

I tried everything....even superman's suggestion to change 9 to 8 in the app, music and video libraries. Still no luck. I am using BlackSea skin.

try the default vistique skin to be sure. how many mp3's are you scanning? are your files in the correct directory as specified in /etc/nghost/nghost.conf?

yup. using vistique now. worked the first time and listed all mp3s. next reboot, they all disappeared. couple more reboots, nothing. third reboot, they appear again.
