Are you actually in the audio group? $ groups | grep -o audio audio Do the devices have the proper permissions? $ ls -l /dev/snd/ total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 0 2007-02-25 09:43 controlC0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 24 2007-02-25 09:43 pcmC0D0c crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 16 2007-02-25 09:43 pcmC0D0p crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 17 2007-02-25 09:43 pcmC0D1p crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 18 2007-02-25 09:43 pcmC0D2p crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 27 2007-02-25 09:43 pcmC0D3c crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 2007-02-25 09:43 timer If that's all correct, then `speaker-test', `alsamixer' and `amixer' are your friends. `amixer' is deprecated, but is actually nice because you can see the settings in a different way than the colorful `alsamixer', which can be confusing (at least to me). -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
