Better for your needs is probably grep.
Code:

lsmod | grep snd
This will display just the modules with the string "snd" in them, which is all we're looking for. Grep is a text search utility, much more powerful than the simple use we are putting it to currently.

Thanks for explaining that, it makes it easier to understand
It's a whole new language I've got to learn!

Can't for the life of me understand it! lol, but the sound is surviving re-boot.
I think you found the key to it with the very explicit instruction to disable "quickboot".
What passes for BIOS in these machines is very "Alice in Wonderland".
The cursor was a bird! and it flapped it's wings as it moved around the screen...I kid you not!
Don't know what the programmers were on, but I would like a bag! :D

Maybe it's my "Windows mentality" but I did expect that with sound "activated", then I would experience some "system" sounds, but there are none.......is that right?:scratch:

reed9 12-21-2010 12:02 PM

A flapping bird cursor? Whoa.

What sort of system sounds are you missing? I think Mint generally has some startup and shutdown sounds. There should be some sort of control center in Mint for that sort of thing, I imagine, but I haven't looked at mint for some time. I don't believe there are otherwise any default system sounds.

Hi reed9 and all who have helped me!
And a Happy New Year to you all
I thought I would just give you a courtesy update on "The further adventures of a Linux Thinkpad!"

Having acquired "enduring sound" thanks to your link to "Linux on Laptops", I set off on holiday on Jan 2nd with my trusty lappy for company in the evenings!
Just to be sure, I also took along :-

The Linux Disk,
A thumb drive with essential files to restore WiFi and sound,
And just to be sure, to be sure,
...a spare HDD with XP Pro istalled on it!
Bomb proof.....so I thought! :D

two days in and the blessed thing just stopped working!:cry:
All I get is a crude line drawing of a Floppy drive and a disk with an animated arrow basically saying "feed me, feed me" and an instruction to press "F1" at the same time.
Changing the Hdd's has no effect since it makes no attempt to read the drive.

The machine doesn't have a floppy drive, just a CD, and Wot disk does it want!

I have noticed in the past when installing or Firing up Linux, that it warns me (in all that geeky stuff that flashes past at the speed of light!) that it's detected an IBM BIOS EPROM, and that it may become irretrievably damaged...or something like that.
Any way, I think that it's finally happened because pressing "F1" at boot no longer takes me to the BIOS (Easy Setup) screen but to the time and date screen which has, as always reverted to 1999.
I think this is more to do with Linux shut down than a flat BIOS battery since it didn't happen when ever the XP OS was running.
another strange change is that I can no longer set the time and date using the keyboard, I have to use the blasted flappy bird thing!
Not that it's any use, 'cos once set, it asks me to reboot, then I just get the "Thinkpad screen"....for about a minute, then the dreaded floppy drive appears saying "Feed me, Feed me"
All this leads me to think that the BIOS is indeed missing.
Sorry to be back with yet more tales of woe!
....can anyone help me get it working again?

hexeta 02-09-2011 04:46 PM

Well!
Turns out I didn't kill it after all!

It's taken me a month, but it's up and running again!

Still plagued by the old problem though, the damned sound refuses to work again and I just can't coax a squeak out of it.

Anyone got any ideas? :)

No sound on ancient Thinkpad 600e running Mint 9
 
Hi guys, I've been here before;-
(http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...66/page12.html)
Despite valiant efforts from many of your knowledgeable members, sound still eluded me!

Whilst wrestling with another piece of kit on the same machine, (Netgear WG121 USB WiFi Adapter) which remains totally aloof, someone on the Mint forums asked me to enter "sudo dmesg -c" in an attempt to see if the adapter was being recognised....it didn't help, but though I do not pretend to understand these things, I have a suspicion that the report that this command generated holds the key to why I am unable to restore sound to this machine.
I apologise in advance for the enormity of the report, but if someone would be kind enough to peruse it, there are some references towards the end that concern the sound functions and I'm hoping that they will finally bring back my sound!

The report:-

Looking at that output I'd say you ought to try and see if there's a BIOS option to
alot a different IRQ to the sound card. At the moment it seems to be sharing the IRQ
11 w/ both the VGA and the PCMCIA adapter, maybe a bit much on the old thing.



Cheers,
Tink



P.S.: I took the liberty to merge the new thread w/ the existing one, so we don't
end up potentially replicating efforts.

Thanks Tink, :hattip:
I had thought of continuing the old thread but it seemed to be getting embarrassingly long!:o

If these thinkpads had what I would call "normal" BIOS rather than the Alice through the looking glass affair that is "Easy set-up", I might have a dogs chance of finding something to change!!

As it is, I must admit my total ignorance.....what's an "IRQ"?:o

The current task that resulted in the creation of the above report was in fact to substiute a USB WiFi adapter for the current PCMCIA WiFi one that really belongs to my Win XP Lappy.
Would that (if successful) lighten the load on "IRQ 11"?
Just thinking about it, the last point at which the sound was working, I was, as now, using the PCMCIA adapter...the only problem I had was in persuading it (sound) to endure a re-boot.
(This was the point at which it became impossible to revive!):(

The last five thinkpads I owned had a proper BIOS, accessible at power-up
by pressing F1 ;}

Have a play (try to have ..) with the BIOS.

I have a faint memory that - back in the day of my TP 770ED I had some issues
w/ sound when switching between Win & Linux, and if memory serves me right it
was the same chipset ...

Tink

That would be minus the flappy bird and the flying screwdriver then?:D

I will, but with some trepidation...don't want to kill it!

Yes, I understand that it was a rather unusual pairing of chips but the annoying thing is that I had it working ...twice, just couldn't get it to survive a re-boot, after the second "revival", subsequent attempts using the same commands in the same order failed to coax it to work.
I just thought that these last few lines of that report held the essence of the problem for those who can understand:-

I'm wondering if the line I've highlighted at 33.119976 is significant, since it has started to appear at boot-up directly under the notification which has appeared at every boot-up from day one that says something like "get PUID failed due to invalid user id"...I'm told to ignore this one as it's a bug.:(
