I just bought this headphones and i wondered how do i set them up when there is no linux driver for.  I am using ubuntu 14.04

So when I install the Windows, I need to install all the drivers that are respective to my laptop.   Why don't I do the same with Ubuntu installation?   Does the installation somehow detects my hardware and install proper drivers on its own?  Thanks

Well obviously I can do it manually, I was just wondering why aren't these drivers available through "Additional Drivers", and why are the versions available there outdated.

So I already asked this question, but I couldn't respond to the answers. I can't hear out of the left ear of any headphones/earbuds because I have to push the jack towards the Earth to hear out of it. It seems you guys think the jack is the problem when I'm pretty sure it's the computer (my Acer laptop). I also forgot to mention the headphones (PX22 Turtle Beaches) work with both ears, but I have to plug in the usb extension cord in order for that to work (it's also the same cord that enables the mic on my headphones), plus I lost the cord. Thanks 4 hewps.

I'm trying to install bang and olufsen drivers, or HP hd audio driver, as only 2 of the 4 speakers work and the 2 amps don't work in ubuntu  lspci -v | grep -i audio 00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Broadwell-U Audio Controller (rev 09)     Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Broadwell-U Audio Controller 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Wildcat Point-LP High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)     Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Wildcat Point-LP High Definition Audio Controller   The volume is terrible. Is there any way to fix this?  The speakers work perfectly on the pre-installed Windows 8.

I am buing assamble self PC for playing games.  I am wondering, all the drivers, which are most likely for Windows, can i just use them on Ubuntu?  So if i understand you right, it will automaticaly detect the drivers, no need for installs ? or it find custom drivers for ubuntu.  This is the setup, will there be any problem with it?

I have a MacBook Pro and use an Apple Magic Mouse. I want to pair a wireless headset but have not been able, I cannot even see where to start.

I'm aware there's already been  regarding Nvidia drivers, but my case is a little different. My wireless adapter's driver is proprietary, and for a minimal install, I need a command to install it. A general command for any other restricted driver that I may come across in the future would also be extremely helpful.

My PC has a build-in VT1828S chip. The connection between PC and monitor (which has built-in speakers) is through an HDMI cable.  Audio preferences shows 2 devices for audio output: analog stereo and RS880 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4200] digital stereo (HDMI).  When I plug a headphone in the rear jack and I choose the former device, everything works. When I choose the latter device, instead, no sound is heard, and video playback is too fast. It is as if video frames want to synchronise with the audio timing, but the audio timing information is wrong.  HDMI audio worked perfectly with Ubuntu 11.04, but stopped after 11.10 upgrade.

After I updated to Ubuntu 18.10 my sound device isn't recognized anymore. Only a dummy device is shown.  I have an onboard Intel device:  lspci -nnk | grep -A2 Audio 00:1b.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller [8086:1e20] (rev 04)     Subsystem: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller [8086:2036]     Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel     Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel   The command pacmd list-cards does not show any devices:  :~$ pacmd list-cards 0 card(s) available.

How can I fix this?

In Windows there is an option to disable auto detection of headphones so speakers won't auto mute but I am unable to find such option in Ubuntu. How can I activate such feature?

What do I need to write device drivers on Ubuntu? Do I need source code for Linux? What else is needed?

I bought this network adapter from Amazon and I don't know how to install the drivers. The adapter comes with a CD for drivers and when I put it in, it has .autorun.exe autorun.ico autorun.csp, and autorun.inf.  I know that it supports Linux because when I installed them on my Windows (Dual-boot) it asked me if I wanted to Linux drivers, Mac, or Windows.

I have a dell studio 1749. I just installed 12.04 on a dual boot with windows 7 (The stereo sound and headphones work perfectly when booted into windows, sound turned up before booting into Ubuntu). The stereo sound seems to be working fine. The headphones, not so much.   My computer has two headphone jacks. When I put my working headphones into the first jack, the stereo sound is muted but there is no sound in the headphones. When I put my headphones into the second jack, the stereo sound is still there and no sound comes out of the headphones. Two different problems?  I first tried the sound troubleshooting found . There seemed to be no problems. However, I'm not positive that my sound cards were on the list. It was a little convoluted for my noob self. I've tried the commands listed  but there were no changes. I've also brought up the alsamixer. The headphones don't appear to be muted or anything. I don't know how to switch to the second sound card and check that one, though.   Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I got my dad a Logitech LS21 system for Christmas. It's a 2.1 system, but it's recognized in Windows 8 as a 2.0 system (it says there is no subwoofer connected).    How would I go about getting the sub recognized?  It plays some sound now, but it's so quiet you can't hear it without putting your ear right next to it.
