You have been subscribed to a public bug: In Intrepid on 2009/04/09 the update manager showed nvidia-180-modaliases (180.11-0ubuntu1~intrepid1) was newly installed, which seems to have stopped me from getting any sound (mic input, speakers out). Formerly I had sound.
Oddly my etc/groups file is now blank (!). I followed the steps in "Comprehensive Sound Problem Solutions Guide" http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 and got to running the module-assistant (with code "sudo module-assistant a-i alsa-source"), which allowed me to choose my driver (I need the intel8x0 driver or ice1427, but I just went for the former), and the install did not succeed. Log attached. Later I ran sudo alsaconf which claimed to successfully configure the ice1427 module, but I'm still with no sound. The error message pertained to gstreamer plugins, which led me to check etc/groups file, which shows up blank under sudo gedit etc/groups. This file looking blank started after I ran alsaconf. Any ideas on how to save my system? ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- Sound stops working after nvidia-180-modaliases (180.11-0ubuntu1~intrepid1) installed https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/358470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
