Audio Driver in Notebook HP Pavilion

felipefls · 05-28-2010, 12:16 PM

Hi, I installed in my notebook the linux Ubuntu 9.04 64 bits and my audio not function. The notebook configuration is Pavilio DV4 1225tx.

What I need to make to function this driver?!

Thanks

Perhaps your audio chip isn't enabled by default in the kernel.

Can you give us the output of "lspci -l" .. so we know which audio chip is integrated in your laptop.

Your audio device is also driven by the "snd-hda-intel" module. See if with:

Code:

modprobe snd-hda-intel

you can activate the module. And check to see if your sound works then.
IF modprobe fails, and so there is no module named "snd-hda-intel".

Attempt:

Code:

cd /usr/src/linux && make menuconfig

And see if under "Device Drivers > Audio Devices > PCI devices > HD Intel" Everything is either a * for built-in or a M for module.

If it's built in, double check with a util like "kmix" if for some reason all your mixers haven't been muted?

Good luck!

You may also need one of the HDA quirks to get full functionality. Please post the output of the following:

Code:

$ cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec

Armed with that output you can check the following for model specific quirks.

/usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt

Good Luck. ;-)

cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#0 | grep Codec

cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#1 | grep Codec
Codec: LSI ID 1040

I try what puntjuh recommend but both codes failed.

Thanks.

The quirks for your card are as follows:

Code:

STAC92HD71B*
============
  ref		Reference board
  dell-m4-1	Dell desktops
  dell-m4-2	Dell desktops
  dell-m4-3	Dell desktops
  hp-m4		HP dv laptops

You'll need the models loaded before these will help. Please post the output from the following:

Code:

$ /sbin/lsmod

Good Luck. ;-)
