SUSE 10.1 remastered No sound problem

Phyrexicaid · 11-21-2006, 02:48 AM

Hi,

I downloaded the Suse 10.1 remastered cds and converted them into a DVD using MakeSuseDVD. Installed Suse. I then installed libxine1 and w32codecs-all from packman repository and tried to play sound. Amarok looks like its playing, but no sound comes out. Sound works fine in the windows partition.

Tried playing files with mplayer, get a picture, but no sound.

The card is detected as GA-7VAX onboard audio (Realtek ALC650). Here is the result of hwinfo --sound:

I did a fresh install (instead of upgrading from 10.0) and that seems to have solved the problem.
