I have a new Lenovo G500 laptop with EUFI Win8 coexisting with Linux Mint XFCE 15 except that sound doesn't work. It's fine when I boot live from the RC DVD. I have generated diff listings of dmesg and syslog without gaining any insight. The modprobe --showconfig diffs are:
Code: Select all
root@dlc-pl[PN]~/soundbug # cat modprobe.diffs
*** PN.modprobe.log 2013-07-26 11:01:08.000000000 -0400
--- RC.modprobe.log 2013-07-26 15:18:06.000000000 -0400

alsa-restore fails on the hard drive system. The /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf files are identical, as are the /etc/pulse subtrees. After the installation, I copied over my home subtree from my XFCE 14 system and have applied Mint updates.
I'm short of time to figure this out myself, so any solid help will really be appreciated.
