Hello Leann Thank you for your message and I apologise for the late reply - I was away on holiday.
My operating system is Daryna Linux Mint 4 (gnome) which uses a Ubuntu kernel. I have got the sound system working again and as long as I am careful and make sure the speakers are always turned off before I stop and start my system, it works ok now. I think that the bug is that if I forget the speakers and restart the computer with the speakers on, then the sound system is killed at boot and I have to go back into a terminal to configure it with command lines. You request that I install a new kernel. Is this possible without damaging my Daryna Linux Mint 4 O/S? I thought that the various programs connected to a specific kernel, and if I changed the kernel some things like Flash or other programs would immediately stop working ... and some programs are very difficult to configure or reconfigure ... Please let me know if you think I can do install the new kernel that you request without suffering broken programs?

As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- ubuntu does not detect my sound card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232362 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in “linux” source package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have just installed Ubuntu Hardy Heron and none of the players seem to detect my sound system - that includes Rhythm Box, Totem Movie Player,and also VLC and Kaffeine, which I have just installed. The video players play video images fine but without audio. I am dual-booting on this machine, Debian is on one 40 GB hard drive and Ubuntu on another 40 GB hard drive, but of course they both use the same sound card and speakers, and they both use the same Linux media players, but the Debian media players function and the Ubuntu players don't. I have no knowledge of how to lead or command my computer to search for or detect a sound system - the software should be able to do that but it doesn't. At this moment I cannot remember what sound card is in this computer, it's several years old but I know it's working because Debian is uses it when I play CDs or watch video CDs or DVDs. NB I wrote "I don't know" because the software will not accept, "All Media Players." I have just got this reply from you: "I don't know" does not exist in Ubuntu. Please choose a different package. If you're unsure, please select "I don't know" I suppose many of the support staff are Irish ...
