Hi, I now read the bug-status as mentioned in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status. I reset the status of this bug to "new" according to the latest line in that link that describes that whenever the bug-reporter add new information, the status should be reset to "new".
What I would like to be clear is that the sound was not fixed by an update (Yes, I did an update, but that by itself did not give me sound). Perhaps I was not clear in my previous comments, so below the procedure I executed and which made the sound work (executed as regular user). #Procedure to add sound using the hda-verb software of Mandriva mkdir -p ~/tmp/fixsound cd ~/tmp/fixsound wget ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/tiwai/misc/hda-verb-0.3.tar.gz tar -xvmf hda-verb-0.3.tar.gz cd hda-verb-0.3 make sudo cp hda-verb /usr/local/sbin #next lines assumes that the string "exit 0" is the last uncommented command in the /etc/rc.local file (located at beginning of the line, otherwise substituse ^exit by something like ^[ TABexit] where TAB is a "real" tab. sudo cp -p /etc/rc.local /etc/rc.local_beforesound sudo grep -v "^exit 0" /etc/rc.local_beforesound > /etc/rc.local echo "/usr/local/sbin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_MASK 3 /usr/local/sbin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DIRECTION 1 /usr/local/sbin/hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 SET_GPIO_DATA 1 exit 0" >> /etc/rc.local shutdown -r now After the reboot the sound magically is there! Thx again for Mandriva who wrote the hda-verb and for the people in bug report 82988, especially Mark Rijckenberg who pointed to the existence of this software by pointing to a similar bug at the opensuse-forum. ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Invalid => New -- No sound in Ubuntu 9.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
