Calibration fails on 64-bit systems
Last modified: 2010-09-05 21:03:16 UTC
Not much info about this but it seems that current calibration algorithm fails
using ubuntu 8.04, 64-bit, kernel 2.6.24 and CANNOT confirm this bug.
I also think there is some misunderstanding and there is no crash now.
*** Bug 589438 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Confirming this on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit. It will not calibrate. After selecting "Start Control" the text turns into "Calibration", but nothing happens and it remains like this indefinitely. If I run it from terminal, this is what I get for pretty much any action: (voice_control_applet:14912): Bonobo-CRITICAL **: bonobo_unknown_ping: assertion `object != NULL' failed ** (voice_control_applet:14912): WARNING **: AT_SPI_REGISTRY was not started at session startup. ** (voice_control_applet:14912): WARNING **: Could not locate registry
Yes, Ubuntu is well known for broken builds. It distibutes obsolete version while this bug was fixed long itme ago.
I've compiled it from trunk...
Right, that's not about gnome-voice-control, the bug I'm referring to is that because of pulseaudio gstreamer can't input any sound.
Then why does Skype work? Why does gnome-sound-recorder work? Why does audacity work? From this perspective gnome-voice-control is the only software with audio input issues.
No idea As for log above, consider this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/at-spi/+bug/508156
Ah, so the problem lies in at-spi, not pulseaudio or gstreamer. That makes more sense. Link to GNOME bugzilla: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609240
