Urgent- Linux sound problem

I was wondering if anyone could help me with a sound problem- my sound card is not detected in both the admin and standard users.
I am pretty farmillar with linux like Nano and other commands, thanks in advance.

if you do not bother to include any needed information there is nothing really we can do

we do not Know what Operating system you are using?
we do not Know what Hardware is being used ?
we do not Know what do not know if "pulse audio" is being used or if ALSA or OSS is being used?
we do not Know what Desktop environment you are using ( Gnome2 ,Gnome3 , KDE4 , xfce,lxde, e17 ,...)

Fixed!!!

Here's the fix

Code:

sudo nano /etc/modules

For my Imac G5 I had to comment

Code:

snd-powermac

and add

Code:

snd-aoa 

snd-aoa-fabric-layout

snd-aoa-soundbus

snd-aoa-i2sbus

snd-aoa-codec-tas

That was the fix that worked for me.
