Hi,
recently I did a "emerge -e system; emerge -e world".
Apart from some applications, which dont want to compile with
the new system -- now based on gcc-4.1.1 -- everything works fine.
(Before emergeing I did a full image backup of the "old" system on
another harddisk of the same model (dd ...). )
But I have no sound anymore...
I checked for the follwing:
PC-BIOS: Onboard sound is enabled.
diffing old and new etc: Inserting alsa devices again with
/etc/modules.d/alsa
Volume is up (alsamixer and speakers)
Speakers have power and ready to play.
Plug is connected to the correct "outlet" (weong word?...sorry I am
only german...)

Apps, which need output of sound (kaffeine, mplayer...) seem not to
miss anything (no "Permission denied" or "/dev/* : No such device).
and act normally -- with no sound at all.
I am a little desperate here, since I simply do not see, what is
going wrong.
Any help to solve the riddle is very appreciated.
Thank you *very* much.
Keep hacking!
