"GrapefruiTgirl"
What a magnificent and delightful fruit to take your name from! My all time favorite, I make 120lbs of Grapefruit Marmalade a year! Sadly, I eat it all too :( Thanks for the instructions, convoluted aren't they :) Sorry if I rang the fire bell. lol |

I meant that the system is convoluted! Quote:
I expected that you must be in Florida , or Haifa with a name like GrapefruiTgirl, but if you're ever in Manchester UK, there's a place at my breakfast table for you! lol. |
Well that is weird. What about:
Code:
which alsamixer Code:
sudo apt-get install alsa-utils |

Ever since seeing a Grapefruit tree when I was working in Bermuda, it has been a fantasy of mine to have one!! The closest I got was growing a Lemon tree on my balcony when I lived in Dubai. After three years of nurturing, the pleasure of picking one of my very own lemons to slice into my gin and tonic was almost orgasmic! :redface: |

The things I don't understand are :- 1) Sometimes ...scratch that, occasionally, it works and the Mixer GUI shows all the sliders and I have glorious sound, albeit a bit quiet! 2) On the odd occasion that it works, it dies when I shutdown:( |

Which you can verify with:
Code:
lsmod | grep "snd-cs4236" |

Just checking the file, it seems that I,ve already done this for this install:- # /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. # # This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded # at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored. lp snd-cs4236 This is the report terminal generates showing that snd_cs4236 is being used by Zero When this module is truly working, this shows as used by "2",.......

There is no output when I enter that command, what verification should show? This is the terminal text:- ~ $ lsmod | grep "snd-cs4236" hexeta@hexeta-desktop ~ $ |
Well that explains everything I think. We've been operating under the assumption the module is called snd-cs4236, when in fact it is snd_cs4236. (Do you see the difference?)

However, I've just checked back in the Linux mint forum where I was instructed in the commands to use with the Terminal. Knowing how careless my typing is, I have never entered anything directly into Terminal, but copied and pasted. Just looking at the post that lead to me receiving my first sweet sounds, and the command was "sudo modprobe snd-cs4236"..........and it just worked like magic, so the command certainly used a hyphen rather than an underscore! Strange........especially since all the items in that list were underscored rather that hyphenated. |
