Intel sound card not working in Ubuntu 6.10
Hi, people,
Maybe you can help me. I've installed Ubuntu 6.10 in my Dell Dimension 5150 (everything on-board) and the sound isn't working. It's strange because Ubuntu shows the sound is working well, but only apparently. I've searched a lot of places in Internet to find a solution, but I didn't get it. Can you help me? You can see the sound card on-board info below: - - - - - 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) Subsystem: Dell Unknown device 01d2 Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 64 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 169 Region 0: Memory at efebc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=55mA PME(D0+,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold+) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Address: 0000000000000000 Data: 0000 Capabilities: [70] Express Unknown type IRQ 0 Device: Supported: MaxPayload 128 bytes, PhantFunc 0, ExtTag- Device: Latency L0s <64ns, L1 <1us Device: Errors: Correctable- Non-Fatal- Fatal- Unsupported- Device: RlxdOrd- ExtTag- PhantFunc- AuxPwr- NoSnoop+ Device: MaxPayload 128 bytes, MaxReadReq 128 bytes Link: Supported Speed unknown, Width x0, ASPM unknown, Port 0 Link: Latency L0s <64ns, L1 <1us Link: ASPM Disabled CommClk- ExtSynch- Link: Speed unknown, Width x0 Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel Capabilities: [130] Unknown (5) - - - - - Thank you a lot, Átila |
Have you tried to look at ALSA web site?
Here you can find a guide to install the snd_hda_intel driver. |
All channel are muted bu default try to use `alsamixer` to unmute them. Check if your module are loader (post your `lsmod`) and if that doesn't work compile a new kernel. You can try alsaconfig but this doesn't work on new sound card. I have 2 HD intel sound card, I can help you in your kernel configuration.

Sorry, I don't know how to determine if the module is loaded or not. I'm new in Linux world.

Wooo you have a lot of thing on modules... do you use all of them?? it's ok for the module... try to unmute channel "front" (to unmute run alsamixer and click M)... try to unmute all that you can and put the volume to the max!

same problem
I had exactly the same problem in Umbuntu. I am trying OpenSUSE, but to date I have not been able to get my sound to work with openSUSE either.
Atilac, did you ever get your sound to work? My sound works fine in Windows so I know it's not a chip problem. Thanks. Jack |

Does your sound work when you are logged in as root? You mention Ubuntu shows it working correctly. Where does it show? What errors do you get when trying to run xmms or mplayer or? Have you ran alsaconf? Steve |
