[Bug 40116] Re: Thinkpad 600e sound hardware not detected with Ubuntu Dapper Drake live CD (Flight 6)
I have successfully gotten the sound to work on my ThinkPad 600e on Ubuntu 9.10. Here are the steps. * FYI, I have acpi=force enabled in Grub so there is no need to turn off acpi. I'm not sure how much of a variable acpi is for this but with acpi=force it works. (BTW, I wanted acpi=force enabled in Grub only because it allowed my battery meter to appear in the GUI.) * Prepare your ThinkPad by making sure that you have disabled “QuickBoot” in the bios. You can check this by booting your machine while holding down the F1 key. Also it is VERY VERY important to use the bios Initialize button, then set QuickBoot back to disabled. Initializing somehow gives Ubuntu a better chance to see the sound card. * Add this line to /etc/modules snd-cs4236 * Blacklist the incorrect sound card in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf by adding these two lines blacklist snd-cs46xx blacklist cs46xx * Add these lines at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf Notice, different than instructions for previous version of Ubuntu, you have to add the --install-ignore and index=0 items to the options line. Also for those not familiar, the options line needs to be one really long line that doesn't wrap to a second line in the actual alsa-base.conf file. alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236 options --install-ignore snd-cs4236 isapnp=0 index=0 port=0×530 cport=0×538 sb_port=0×220 fm_port=0×388 irq=5 dma1=1 dma2=0 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss options snd cards_limit=1 * After restarting you should hear sound at the login screen. If you do not hear sound when you are loading up into your desktop, the volume icon may have an X on it. For some reason my volume was set all the way down initially so you can just turn up the volume if this happens to you too.

As Warren Butler wrote (except, maybe the lines into /etc/modprobe.d /alsa-base - i didn't add them) , and plus setting acpi=off pnpbios=off... makes the sound working, BUT it works TOO low. Some people told that the sound very low even on other notebooks, still they have the hardware volume on the top, and software volume on the top too. I've managed to find how to fix it! run 'sudo alsamixer' and set the PCM volume hi (use arrows right/left to scroll to the PCM, and up/down to set it), after setting the right volume press Esc. don't remember how to save it permanently (but this is listed in the HOWTO and not hard to find).

Known problem with the TP600E. The soundcard is incorrectly identified as CS462x. There are plenty of web pages out there describing solutions to this. But here is the Reader's Digest version: 1. Blacklist the incorrect sound card in /etc/modprobe.dblacklist. Add lines for blacklist snd-cs46xx blacklist cs46xx as written above - with the xx's 2. Add the following lines into /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236 options snd-cs4236 isapnp=0 cport=0x538 port=0x530 sb_port=0x220 fm_port=0x388 irq=5 dma1=1 dma2=0 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss options snd cards_limit=1 NOTE: When copying and pasting the above, make sure that the line starting with 'options...' is *one* line ending with '...dma2=0'. 3. Add the line snd-cs4236 to the file /etc/modules Reboot. Also important: During power up, if you press F2 (I think), you get into change the config. In this you need to make sure that the Fastboot option is *disabled*. If you are still having no success: try adding 'acpi=off pnpbois=off' at the end of the kernel boot params. Press 'esc' during Grub countdown and select 'e' to edit the boot command and add these to the end. If need these to allow my Xircom PCMCIA ether card to work. One last thing: the default starting volume is very low, so make sure that you set the volume to high using the keyboard Fn+PgUp key combination. -- Thinkpad 600e sound hardware not detected with Ubuntu Dapper Drake live CD (Flight 6) https://launchpad.net/bugs/40116 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
