I have the motherboard in question (ASUS M4A87TD-EVO) and after installing Ubuntu 10.04 (amd64) with kernel 2.6.32-24-generic, I had this problem. I solved it by applying the solution in Diaa Sami's link (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/474359). The package name was a bit different though, the link says "linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic- generic", change it to
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic and S/PDIF and everything else works again :) -- ASUS MA487TD EVO - ATI SB850 - VIA VT1818 - Linux does not sees external toslink spdif output https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/614984 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
