Dell laptop + sound
Good day all, I am having problems getting sound to work on an old Dell Latitude. I configured the sound card following the handbook, and the driver (snd_ich) loads just fine. However I can neither hear anything when doing cat file /dev/dsp nor can I raise the volume level using the XFCE volume control applet. Any hints?

Hi Michael,
what card have you got?
for example, I can see mine with pciconf -lv :
[...]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:27:0: class=0x040300 card=0x05b71014 chip=0x26688086 rev=0x03
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Intel Corporation'
device = '82801FB/FR/FW/FRW Intel High DefiNition Audio Controller'
class= multimedia
[...]
(look for 'class = multimedia' or pcm@ device...
Also, after loading the snd modules, what does
cat /dev/sndstat
show? if the drivers has detected your card properly, you should get some
info... For example , I get:

Re: Dell laptop + sound - Solved
Thanks Norberto
I figured it out, it was a maestro3 driver.
