Toshiba Laptop P100-208 - No Sound
Hey all,
I am new to Linux and I am trying to get my machine to work with it. However, I am struggling to get any sound out of the machine at all and it is starting to be a real pain. The machine uses a sound card provided by Conexant / Intel. My machine is a Toshiba P100-208 as shown here: http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.c...DUCT_ID=122152 Below is my smolts profile: http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pu...4-533fa0f3fa24 I appreciate any help. I can try to provide any additional information as requested. Thanks a lot, - Calvin |
From what you have posted, it appears this is the sound module you need to load.
http://www.alsa-project.org/main/ind...dule-hda-intel If you have a look at that link, the module is supplied with most distros. There are instructions on how to load it. If you have any problems, please supply some more information. Distro and release you are running. Open a console and run '/sbin/lsmod | grep snd' and post the results. This will show the sound modules loaded. If you have not already do so, open a mixer, and make sure you are not muted. Turn up the volume. Try playing a .wav file, try 'alpay some.wav' Usually there is a directory with various .wav files used for system sounds. These do not require any codecs. Some distros come without proprietary codecs installed so you get silence on .mp3 files. Hopw this helps. |

Some thoughts...
You have what appears to have the correct modules loaded. For most problems, this is all that is required. I have similar hardware. I compared things, and they look the same. I don't use Fedora, so I don't know if Pulse Audio is included as the default sound server. If it is loaded, have you tried stopping the daemon and trying the sound? I'm running Mandriva, now 2009, on Spring 2008.1 Pulse Audio killed my sound. I used Arts ( and I know it is not perfect ) until I upgraded to 2009. Pulse on 2009 is now working. I'm going to have a look around to see if I can find any issues with this driver, hardware combination. I have seen some threads where the user had to load the driver with specific options to get things going. |
