Hi,
System: Daryna on an Dell Vostro1500 notebook
soundcard: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family)
works on Vista perfect
"cat /proc/asound/cards" says - no soundcards-
What I have to do ?
greetings from Germany
Aidan

In a terminal try running "asoundconf list". That will attempt to list installed sound cards. Also try "asoundconf reset-default-card". Also right click on volume icon on panel, select properties, and see if it is listed and the correct track is selected. I always have to change mine to front. It is usually on PCM.

Hi,
Problem fixed.
I did the following:
install the latest alsa-base 1.0.15
in a terminal type
cd /usr/src
sudo module-assistant update
sudo module-assistant prepare
sudo module-assistant auto-install alsa
sudo shutdown -r now
look for the type of chip (in a terminal) with
cat /proc/asound/cards
head -n l /proc/asound/card0/codec*
search in file /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/ALSA-Configuration.txt the chip
edit file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base , on the end type
options snd-hda-intel model=STAC9205/9254
sound works perfect.
Thanks
Aidan
