INITIAL SUCCESS: I was still trying to figure out how to remove the old module and find the new driver module and install it when I remembered something about a Package Manager of some kind, and hoped this meant there was an automatic way to do what David T. Chen suggested.
1) I went to: System/Administration/Synaptic Package Manager 2) I selected [Multimedia] packages and then checkboxed the alsa-base package and marked it for Reinstallation. 3) I rebooted. This has enabled sound through my system headphones/speakers when watching YouTube videos. I have no trouble playing CDs with Rhythmbox. I have not loaded/tried any other software, but this is very promising! I do not know if this accomplished the goals above or not, but it solved the problem. If anyone needs for me to run additional diagnostics or copy some kind of other output that might be helpful, please let me know. Thanks everyone! I still know very little about Linux, but learned a lot as I tried to make sense of the instructions I was given and had to find my way around. Along the way, I found this Launchpad place, the Wiki, the Terminal, the Synaptic Package Manager, and an appreciation for what a difficult project it is to offer the world all of this. I now get to brag about how I'm free from Microsoft! -- no sound everex stepnote ubuntu 9.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/521603 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
