Falling back to HDA Intel PCH (HDA Generic). " and i have no sound at all on my laptop ,PLEASE can someone help me :cry: .

how many distros have you tried? you can try linux distribution by booting off usb stick following these instructions.
If none of them work, it may be unsupported.. Tell us also what is your sound card name.. |
I am currently using Back track 5 r3 as for the sound card i have no idea what it is i have recently just bought the laptop that i want to dedicate to linux .

Code:
lspci | grep Audio but we will wait. 2) we can tell from your error message that you have at least an intel sound device. Generally speaking sound drivers for hardware come from a kernel module or two ditto codecs come from a combination of kernel modules and sound applications 3) Do you know how to take a snapshot in Linux? 4) why did you use backtrack as your laptop distro? 5) Do you know that there are specific distros for laptops? b) and smaller window managers for laptops? 5) what is the make and model of this laptop? |
Back track (actually now Kali) is rather specialised, not a general-purpose distro, and others have had the same problem:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...t-work-905902/ Perhaps that thread may help? Otherwise, get another, more suitable, distro. I've just checked and I've got the kernel module snd_ens1371.ko on my system. |
found a possible solution for pulseaudio but its an old link
