Did you try to create such a file?

prasad.nitc · 09-15-2009, 06:13 AM

i didnt created that file
but i created modprobe.conf in /etc/modprobe.d
and wrote one line
"options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6 "
and restart
now its working

Are you using alsa..? If so why not try alsaconf in the terminal.

Thanks prasad.nitc
Your solution of creating the /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
and adding the line "options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6" into it helped solved the sound problem in Dell Studio 15 laptop, running Fedora 11.
With linux kernal 2.6.30
I also had to change the Device for output to "Internal Audio" in the Sound Preferences window in Fedore 11 (Gnome)
I am posting the details here, to help if someone else exits with the same problem.
Thanking you,
indiajoe
