Hello linux-man,

Your problem is a fairly common one - I believe that is the point of ondoho's response above as well.

There are many reasons this may not work straight after an installation, but it is usually possible to get it working on most common laptops. Do a little research on the issue, using the specific make and model of your laptop and the specific Linux distro and version. If after that, you still require assistance, please let us know.

Cheers,

Rick

Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. You provide *NO DETAILS AT ALL* that would let anyone even guess as to how to help you. You don't tell us what version/distro of Linux, anything about your hardware, if your sound works at all, or anything that you've done/tried.

We can't guess.

And that after having been asked to do put in some initial effort in every of your 80+ threads.

You are not being charged per word to post here. (This is not an old fashion telegram) so you can post more details as it has been pointed out to you MULTIPLE times in EVERY thread you have raised.

Else, the answer you are most likely to get for this thread is: too bad.
