I use linux in a work environment, mainly for data security reasons.
I've used Linux since around 1997 or so.
Question: I need to have sound functioning for work. After a HD
install, I get sound on SL6, but at a very low volume. No userspace
adjustments will change it such as setting PCM all the way up, etc.
Does anyone have a clue about this and what to do about it? I've
noticed this behaviour on a couple of other distro's, but not all of
them. I'm using Debian Squeeze right now and sound is
fine, but I want to change it out for SL.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi John,
Did you do a full desktop install or a minimal desktop install?
I noticed that when I did a minimal desktop install that alot of tools I
usually use are missing. This is on purpose of course, but I was still
surprised.
I've only tried the sound on one machine thus far. I was in gnome, and
I was able to raise and lower the volume using the normal user graphical
tools.
What "userland tools" are you using?
Troy
