i recently bought the laptop Lenovo - IdeaPad 330 /w Windows 10 installed



I decided i wanted to start using linux so i set up a dual boot system installed the latest version of Mint following a guide. Everything seems to be working perfectly excpet for my microphone. This is the first time i own a linux so i dont really know much and tried to fix it by googling the issue. I installed pavucontrol and played /w the setting but the mic still wont work. It does appear to be detected and a tiny little line is flickering as if it is detecting sound but very little. When i enter a discord call all that people hear is static or themselves.



I thought it might be something wrong with the hardware so i booted up windows and tried it there, but it worked normaly and the sound was clear.



Im very inexperienced /w linux mint so i was hoping one of you knows the solution.



Thank you in advance!

          Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
