failing usb bus? faulty usb cable? Copper does break if bent over and over since it's metal. Although some elements from your log suggests possible software causes. Like using hw:K6,0 which probably requires some configuration in .asoundrc or the global variant to label in that way. Plus the handler...

# modinfo <module_name>

The ones for pppoe probably have ppp in the name. There's a number of router type devices that run at < 10W of power. It is another device per say, but it's not like a second or third 300W+ PC.

When I say dialup, it's not really a phone thing, it's that pppoe uses modem protocols before you get a network. I'm in the sticks a bit myself. But close enough to civilization to have a wireless ISP option (microwave dish). It's 10x's faster than actual dialup, but slow by domestic standards. It's...

>$ == as user? Some things need root access to work, it's a permissions thing. Ubuntu normally crosses that bridge with the sudo prefix for commands that run as root. It probably wouldn't hurt to compare lsmod outputs between the two to see if there's modules running on the one that works that are n...

CLI would be command line interface. Like xterm, bash, and other ways of doing things. It's one of the lowest level way of doing things. And unfortunately in linux, it's sometimes the ONLY way of doing things.

I'm an old CLI guy. $ dpkg-query --load-avail -l '*partial*package*' to find packages with distro specific names, like a version number on the end. Using aptitude or synaptic can let you get away with more generic naming conventions. Although using apt is less likely to be broken at any moment in ti...

You can adjust things with jackd settings. The -p value before -d is number of portS and the -p after -d is size of ports. Both must be powers of 2 afaik. The -p before helps with stability, if it's too low you can have notes that don't happen like what you described. The -p after can help with late...

I tend to use multiple soundcards. You almost can't avoid it. Your motherboard has a sound card, your video card, and you probably have a USB mic that functions as a soundcard. And if you're an audio type a USB or PCI audio device in addition to all that. A lot of times you have to select the card, ...

Audio via RCA, red is right, the rule of thumb. Therefor left is white. You need to set your software mixer levels. ADC for analog to digital converter (INPUT) and DAC for digital to analog converter (OUTPUT). Via something like alsamixer. Pulse is pretty default these days. If you don't want it, th...

After the ten minute mark I show some of the gui options, no CLI needed. Except that I was using cwm which doesn't have a menu to select things from, so I had to launch them from the CLI. And I mostly used the virtual keyboards for the eye candy. The MOX8 should appear like the virtual / software ke...

I don't know if this is what you were looking for. But something I did this morning in debian under cwm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68dNginMNKY Just the basics to get you started. A/V sync gets off as I try to use larger and larger apps on that old box. And various annoying cell phone handshakes...

It could be that the USB device is drawing more juice than your USB bus can provide. Laptop USB bus's tend to be under powered to conserve battery life. Perhaps a powered USB hub with a higher amp rating could quiet the beast. http://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/guitar/guitar-rig-...

On one of my old laptops, the mic input and headphone output had shared elements. As in I could not multi-track, record something new while playing something old at the same time. Because the something new (input) would have bleed over from the something old (output). Perhaps this is part of what yo...

It could be that the standard usb power isn't high enough amps to fully power the device. You might try a powered usb hub to see if the blinking improves. But as you've seen midi events are reaching your system, so it works per say. Pulseaudio is a whole other topic. Suffice to say that you don't ne...
