Ubuntu Hardy (Development Branch) 8.04 I think I have the same problem. I have an ASUS M51Sn-X2 laptop. My model only has one sound card so I fail to get even the headphone jack to work. My lspci gives me this:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) which is the same breed of sound card (one generation apart). I would like to point out however that the ALSA page doesn't formally support my card (ICH8 family http://www.alsa- project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Intel ) and I'm sure that a year ago (the original post date) that might have been the same problem Thomas had. Also digging around the alsa driver source code, it mentions that the supported sound cards are "ID: Intel i810/i820/i830/i840/MX440" which is neither ICH7 or ICH8 and which corresponds to the ALSA site. And again, under "CARDS-STATUS" it says: __________________ - snd-intel8x0 Intel 82801AA:jk Intel 82901AB Intel MX440 ___________________ which would again, imply that the cards are in the works. Another cause could be from digging around the same source, under supported kernels: __________________________________ The alsa-drivers in this package are designed for the following kernels: - Vanilla 2.6.23 or earlier - Vanilla 2.4.31 or earlier - Vanilla 2.2.26 or earlier It's not guaranteed that they work with any newer version than above or modified kernels by distributors. ______________________________________________ I'm running on 2.6.24-15. This doesn't seem like a good thing with the Hardy release coming out soon: that the most recent version of the ALSA driver isn't formally supported on the released kernel. -- Alsa fails to detect my audio card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112535 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
