I should have been more precise in my description in message #29. What I meant by the parenthetical remark was that I had no sound (and still do not) after each of the following steps in order:
* Installed Karmic 64-bit to an empty formatted partition (ext4). * Enabled the karmic-backports repository (System->Administration->Software Sources->Updates (tab)->Unsupported updates (checkbox)) and updated all packages (System->Administration->Update Manager->Install Updates). * Installed linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic from synaptic. * Followed the exact procedure listed in #25 above, with the exceptions of (a) fixing the typo mentioned in #28 and (b) using nautilus to uncompress the archive since the tar command listed gave an error. * Reinstalled linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic again just now. After each of these * starred items I rebooted, and tried to play a .wav file in Totem after checking the volume level and mute status in the System->Preferences->Sound Preferences application. None of them resulted in any sound, even jack noises. -- Apple MacBook Pro 5.2 audio output not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462098 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
