OK, Intel. IN dmesg, you should find a line that is something like: snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: irq 49 for MSI/MSI-X Build all the devices in the kernel (Device Drivers -> Sound Card Support -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture -> PCI sound devices -> Intel HD Audio. The only user level packages you need to start are ALSA Libs and ALSA Utils. Then bring up alsamixer and un-mute everything and make volumes medium. Then run speaker-test. You should get white noise (static noise). From there, you can start other packages, but you will have established the basic sound capabilities. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
