Hi everyone.We have got a Pure Element-AM2RS485M mainboard with SB600 chipset. Mepis 2007 works well but there is no audio. How can we set the driver?

Thank you

Run this script and post the resulting url here. This will give me more information on your system. It is possible that your system is already supported in the alsa source tree.

The URL is http://www.nic.sh/cgi-bin/whois_index.cgi?alsa-info.sh

Uh, that doesn't look correct. If you download the script and run it in a console window with "sh alsa-info.sh", it should respond with something like this:

Sorry about that. I hope I have got it right this time. This is what returned

One of the users that requents the #alsa forum on IRC wrote it, mainly to help me and other alsa programmers.

The above script gives that information and much more. It is far more useful for us alsa developers. Thanks for your input though.

Could you reload the sound drivers and rerun the script again? According to the output, no drivers are loaded. Also, try downloading and installing the latest alsa release candidate, alsa-driver-1.0.14rc3. There have been significant changes since 1.0.13, and this may just be all you need.

Thank you all.

In response to lsmod | grep -i snd

I get

0000:00:14.5 Multimedia audio controller: ATI Technologies Inc. SB600 AC97 Audio

and in response to

lsmod | grep -i snd

I get blank, i.e. nothing.
