I have a Hewlett-Packard Presario V5000 (ES188AV) F.54, as reported by smolt. Never had the speaker part of the audio flake out on me. Now the microphone is another matter. I haven't been able to get either the internal or external mic to work with ekiga yet. (The gain is way too low to be usable.) -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.

I shutdown the laptop, took out the battery, waiting a few minutes, and then put it back in, booted up, and viola! lspci showed it as ATI IXP audio. I'm assuming the audio wasn't working when I installed F9 since no audio applet was installed in Gnome so I added it and everything appears to be working properly.

Everything works well except there is no audio. Direct from boot there is no /proc/asound or /dev/snd directories. lspci does not show any audio devices so I'm not sure what driver to use.

I tried modprobe snd-intel8x0 since it's really common and the module loaded and created some entries under /proc/asound but alsamixer still didn't see a sound card.

It's got the same video chipset (Radeon XPress 200M) so my bet is it has the ATIIXP audio chipset as well. I have my sound driver built into the kernel on this system (as I now run Gentoo on it), but I had F9 on it until a couple weeks ago without trouble. You say lspci doesn't show anything?

I can't believe that as old as this laptop is that the driver was just recently added. Is there some proprietary driver issue with the specific audio chipset in this laptop?

Re: F9: No audio on Compaq V5000
Hello Richard, please add atrpms repository (http://atrpms.net/install.html) from atrpms repository install alsa-driver , as dependency it will install alsa-kmdl module for your current kernel. Restart computer, and sound will work just perfect.
