Hi,

I do use Ubuntu 8.04. I usually get lower sound volume than in windows.

However, I'm not sure about headphone thing. I haven't tried it.

Kind regards,
Pothi Kalimuthu.

Yes and No.

I have a powerful 200W Creative amplifier set to compensate 'YES'.

Ubuntu is not a perfect linux distribution. There are other small things too, to compromise while using it. I'm happy to do so, comparing the numerous other advantages it offers.

Best

Pothi.

I have never really tried to find such sites. Shall inform you, if I do find some.

I actually have a dead (under service) laptop with pre-installed XP. Usually I use it whenever I can't do something with my powerful yet useless Ubuntu desktop PC.

I usually curse Ubuntu, whenever I do so.

For example, Ubuntu doesn't support my HP r507 digital camera. I plug it into laptop-XP, download the photos, and transfer them into Ubuntu.

If you have XP or Vista installed in the same PC where you installed Ubuntu, a reboot would do.
