Hello all,
I have just installed Trisquel 5.5 64bit on my HP DC7800P SFF, and installed
all the updates. Everything has gone well with this system except I have one
issue. The graphics card I am using is an NVIDIA Geforce 210 which has HDMI
out for sound and video, and I use DVI instead of HDMI. My motherboard also
has integrated audio, which I normally use for sound (I've used this no
problem in the past with other GNU/Linux distros). However, every time I boot
into the system, despite me changing the settings in the BIOS to disable the
sound output in the graphics card and use the integrated audio instead, it
always disables the integrated sound and uses the sound from the graphics
card instead. This means I cannot get sound unless I use HDMI, but HDMI gives
terrible picture quality on my monitor. Here is the output of lspci:

As you can see, the only soundcard lspci detects is the NVIDIA one, and the
integrated audio is an Intel HD Audio controller, which is listed as
supported on h-node.
I'm not sure what caused this problem, so if anyone could help me, it would
be great. :-)
TIA,
