there's your problem

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:47 AM

#

no audio drivers... 💀

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 5:47 AM

#

due to fall of 2024 board release

#

upgrade the linux kernel

#

6.8 was last spring's

#

since ur board is past that, it isnt handling AMD

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:48 AM

#

how do i fix it?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 5:48 AM

#

(AMD onboard audio)

#

open ~~driver manager~~

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:48 AM

#

#

still nope

#

do any of your monitors have built-in speakers?

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:56 AM

#

i think 1

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 5:56 AM

#

you can use the HDMI output for audio then

#

or try installing the mainline kernel, which will push it to 6.14-something

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:57 AM

#

steady mantle you can use the HDMI output for audio then

it doesnt work either

#

no audio works

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 5:57 AM

#

ensure ur using the hdmi connector coming from the nvidia card

#

not from the onboard AMD stuff

#

DP carries audio too i think, but not sure

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 5:58 AM

#

youll have to explain because i dont understand sorry

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 5:59 AM

#

look at back of computer

#

u may see video connectors like HDMI n Display Port (DP)

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:00 AM

#

yes

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:00 AM

#

appearing in two separate and distinct places

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:00 AM

#

okok i understand now

#

i use 1 hdmi for my second monitor

#

and 1 dp for my main

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:00 AM

#

use the nvidia jack to the mon. that has speakers builtin

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:00 AM

#

to the mon?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:01 AM

#

the monitor

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:01 AM

#

alr

#

gimme a sec

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:01 AM

#

ur nvidia drivers are seemingly working

#

so that should pass sound too

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:05 AM

#

my second monitor (has speaker) only has 1 hdmi port which was alr connected to it

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:05 AM

#

make sure that monitor's built-in menu is set to allow speakers to work

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:05 AM

#

my main one is purely just a screen

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:06 AM

#

steady mantle make sure that monitor's built-in menu is set to allow speakers to work

I'd imagine it has easy to reach volume buttons or soemthing too

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:08 AM

#

ya its all good like its supposed to

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:08 AM

#

set output

#

to proper DP one

#

or hdmi, whatever

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:09 AM

#

ya it doesnt work

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:09 AM

#

then click test sound

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:09 AM

#

both dont work

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:10 AM

#

brb

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:10 AM

#

alr

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:11 AM

#

can u please open software manager, and search the app "Resources"

#

it's a fatpak so hope u got fast internet

#

install it

#

i wanna see which gpu is actually working if at all

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:12 AM

#

?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:12 AM

#

yeep

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:12 AM

#

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:12 AM

#

installed?

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:12 AM

#

its done*

#

ye

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:13 AM

#

open youtube and put some high FPS video on. like those fancy 4k nature vids

#

then open Resources app and stretch it wide enough to see gpu graphs well. and show a ss

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:15 AM

#

#

the other gpu is the onboard gpu for my cpu

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:16 AM

#

it's cut off anyway

#

nvm i see it on left

#

as GPU1

#

Puzzled why the nvidia isnt passing sound

#

is the connection HDMI or DP?

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:18 AM

#

hdmi

#

i cant use dp on my second monitor

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:19 AM

#

ok so hdmi cord from nvidia card to monitor that has speakers, correct?

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:20 AM

#

yes

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:21 AM

#

and monitors audio volume is up?

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:21 AM

#

yes

#

at 52

#

and system volume at 100

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:22 AM

#

well try diff solution. mainline kernel

#

or test UBUNTU cinnamon 25.04 on a live usb

#

n test ur luck on that

#

see if the Family 17h audio card works there

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:23 AM

#

so i do like i did for linux mint but with ubuntu cinnamon?

#

download that stuff on rufus and into the usb stick?

#

wait it says for windows

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:24 AM

#

u can use rufus on anothr machine, or use ventoy on Mint to prep the drive

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:25 AM

#

ventoy ok thank you

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:25 AM

#

#1295816480256163892 message

#

once prepped, u just slap the iso on the drive as a data file

#

u can drag n drop ISOs or delete them as desired later

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:33 AM

#

"In Linux's Gnome-Disks (or Windows Disk Management) you will see it creates a large, empty VENTOY main partition, and a quite small EFI partition." im not sure i understand this

#

wait nvm its the gnome disks thing that caught me off guard i looked in disks and i see what you mean

#

im unsure where to find my usb in file manager?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:40 AM

#

in devices

#

labelled Ventoy

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:41 AM

#

nope

#

if applicable

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:42 AM

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:46 AM

#

just test it.

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:46 AM

#

steady mantle k u didnt get cinnamon but w/e

would it be better if i did?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 6:47 AM

#

for hardware purposes no

#

for user experience, possibly

#

when u boot it, just choose "TRY ubuntu" not install

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 6:48 AM

#

ok so now thats its in it i go bios run it using usb and do the whole thing?

System:
Host: ubuntu Kernel: 6.14.0-15-generic arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc
v: 14.2.0
Desktop: GNOME v: 48.0 tk: GTK v: 3.24.49 wm: gnome-shell dm: GDM3
Distro: Ubuntu 25.04 (Plucky Puffin)

#

#

or if u like gnome desktop stay

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:28 AM

#

i dont mind it

#

it feels cozy and cant i like customize it to my liking?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:29 AM

#

u can get some nome extensions, like dash-to-panel

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:29 AM

#

cuz i heard you can do that with linux

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:29 AM

#

for a more classic workflow

#

or add Plank dock

#

or use as-is

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:29 AM

#

one thing that is bothering me is that when switching to my monitor to the left i have to move my cursor to the right side of my right monitor

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

i forgot how that works

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

fixed it

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

something about dragging the monitors around virtually, or setting primary

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

went in display settings and just moved em

#

similar to windows so i kinda knew how

#

ok so now i have to fully instal ubuntu and just try it right?

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

keep in mind ur on nouveau vid drivers (which may or may not be better for u)

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

all i do is game and i plan on learning how to properly use linux

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

and learn coding and programming as a side hobby after work

#

cuz it seems fun and challenging

#

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:32 AM

#

loud current it feels cozy and cant i like customize it to my liking?

somewhat. gnome has a knack for being kinda set in a certain way/look but like i said, there's extensions

#

and other external program desktop things like conky and conkymanager2

#

for fanciness

loud current Apr 29, 2025, 7:36 AM

#

steady mantle Apr 29, 2025, 7:41 AM

#

once installed, set up timeshift saves for weekly, and take a manual one soon

#

helps big in case of massive system mess

#

easy rollback to a working state (snapshot)
