Hello, Always had trouble getting sound to work with Debian, never had it working with Squeeze, though I might see if I could get it going again:
Acer 3614WLCi laptop $ lspci | grep -i audio 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) I see a bug on the net against the hardware above on Ubuntu? It is said it can be worked around with alsa-lib, but not how that might be done. $ lsmod | grep snd snd_intel8x0 19523 1 snd_intel8x0m 8100 0 snd_ac97_codec 79136 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_intel8x0m ac97_bus 710 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcsp 5219 0 snd_pcm_oss 28479 0 snd_mixer_oss 10461 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 47350 5 snd_intel8x0,snd_intel8x0m,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcsp,snd_pcm_oss snd_seq_midi 3480 0 snd_rawmidi 12313 1 snd_seq_midi snd_seq_midi_event 3684 1 snd_seq_midi snd_seq 35303 2 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_timer 12258 2 snd_pcm,snd_seq snd_seq_device 3673 3 snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq snd 33551 13 snd_intel8x0,snd_intel8x0m,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcsp,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device soundcore 3450 1 snd snd_page_alloc 4977 3 snd_intel8x0,snd_intel8x0m,snd_pcm $ dpkg -l alsa-base Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-======================-======================-============================================================ ii alsa-base 1.0.21+dfsg-2 ALSA driver configuration files $ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [ICH6 ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH6 Intel ICH6 with ALC655 at irq 21 1 [pcsp ]: PC-Speaker - pcsp Internal PC-Speaker at port 0x61 2 [Modem ]: ICH-MODEM - Intel ICH6 Modem Intel ICH6 Modem at irq 21 Installed: v alsa - i alsa-base - ALSA driver configuration files i alsa-firmware-loaders - ALSA software loaders for specific hardwar i alsa-oss - ALSA wrapper for OSS applications i alsa-tools - Console based ALSA utilities for specific i alsa-tools-gui - GUI based ALSA utilities for specific hard i alsa-utils - ALSA utilities i alsamixergui - graphical soundcard mixer for ALSA soundca v alsaplayer - i A alsaplayer-alsa - PCM player designed for ALSA (ALSA output i alsaplayer-common - PCM player designed for ALSA (common files i alsaplayer-esd - PCM player designed for ALSA (EsounD outpu i A alsaplayer-gtk - PCM player designed for ALSA (GTK+ version The following doesn't work: # udevtrigger --verbose --subsystem-match=sound -su: udevtrigger: command not found My: /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base-blacklist.conf Is like this: # Uncomment these entries in order to blacklist unwanted modem drivers # blacklist snd-atiixp-modem # blacklist snd-intel8x0m # blacklist snd-via82xx-modem # Comment this entry in order to load snd-pcsp driver # blacklist snd-pcsp # Comment this entry in order to load pcspkr driver Possibly someone could point me further, or see what I'm missing. I've been without any sound so long, I don't really miss it, but it would just be nice to have my Squeeze system working as it should.
