More info please. Have you run alsaconf and alsamixer? Have you attempted to load the snd-hda-intel module? Basically, what steps have to tried so far, and what have been the results of those attempts?

Card Intel 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller driver HDA Intel

It should pretty much just work.

vin_akleh · 10-20-2009, 04:03 PM

iv tried every thing nothing is working!! and every time i start alsamixergui this message comes up

Quote:

alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: no such file directory

i think this message comes up because i cancels the download before it ended and every time i remove it and set it back it doesnt try to download it from the internet it just starts with the setup and the same message comes up when i run it! any solution for that
note: i am using backtrack 4 pre release witch is based on ubuntu 8.

As J.W. asks, does it load...

You might open a terminal and use the command "lsmod" to see if the snd-hda-intel module is loading and post back. Otherwise, again, more information is required.

iv tried ismod and this is what it gave me

try 'lsmod | grep snd' this will list all snd modules instead.

FYI, when you want to post output insert it within [code][/code] tags.

it seems all modules loaded properly...can you run 'alsaconf' (as root)?

vin_akleh · 10-21-2009, 03:57 AM

here is the output:
sudo: alsaconf: command not found

hurry_hui · 10-21-2009, 04:32 AM

Having searched via google...

It seems there is no 'alsaconf' in *buntu. Alsaconf is usually part of alsa-utils package.

Some people advise to get debian package for alsa-utils.

This once solved by updating the alsa-driver...

Also you might want to check this and this

Do you have...

Do you have your repositories configured and have you downloaded the alsa-utils package?

In case this helps.
