Sound Card troubles Ubuntu 5.10 AC 97
Ello all
I finally managed to get Ubuntu to work Everything so far runs smooth EXCEPT my sound card My sound card is a AC 97 I believe the manufacturer is RealTek I'm fairly new to linux so if there is anyone that can give me th explanation on how to get this to work in laymans terms that would be appreciated Totem says it can't stream xmms plays it fine but no sound Any help would be appreciated Many thanks in advance, Mick |
you get no sound at all?
if you go to system settings >> sound and mutimedia >> hardware tab, use "auto detect" apply settings, then under general tab use test sound (at the bottom) test midi wont work unless u have a midi device attached,,which it seems u dont. is there any other error messages??

What happens if you go into a terminal and type
alsamixer ? |

Make sure "master" and "pcm" are turned up. If nothing happens when you type alsamixer, type "sudo apt-get install alsa-base" (without the quotes, of course) and then try again. |

It appears to be busted :-(
Booted into windows to try it and still didn't work So weird as up till 2 days ago before i installed ubuntu it worked fine under winblows Ah well... not the biggest loss in the world Thanks for this |
It's NOT busted
Came to find that 1 wire inside the box was a little lose This happened when i took gfx card out which will be my next issue My gfx card prevents Ubuntu from booting up as it makes ubuntu freeze on the hotplug subsystem anywho sound is fixed thanks for all the input and sorry for being a dumbass :D |
