Sound M2350
I have an Emachines M2350 laptop that I installed Ubuntu Breezy (v5.10) on. Everything works fine as far as I know, besides the sound. The laptop speakers do not work at all, but when I plug in headphones, I can play sound over them. On https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupp...sLaptopsOthers it says to disable all jack sense and external amplifier switches. Is this the problem? If so how do I do this?

Perhaps the speakers are just muted?
|
Sound ON
The volume is turned up for everything and nothing is muted. It still makes no difference.
|
No Sound
Is there anyone else who has the same problem? Or who has an M2350 with the sound all working right?

I was just looking through my previous posts, and noticed this one. I did manage to get the sound working after a while and a bunch of messing around and reinstalling.
Here is how you have to do it: Install Ubuntu first. Then type in sudo apt-get install kde, to install kde. Then open up Kmix under kde, and disable the external amplifier switch. I know this sounds like a crazy way to do it, and there probably is an easier way, but I havn't found it. I tried just installing kubuntu, and disabling the external amplifier switch, and that didn't work. I also tried disabling the axternal amplifier switch under ubuntu, but that doesn't work either. Hope this helps someone. |
