        What does it say when you enter
        Code:
        aplay -l
        in the Konsole?

            OK. And what does
            Code:
            lspci -v
            show?

                Hmmmmm. OK, first, I found this bug report:

                https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/248881

                which may or may not be relevant. I looked up your audio chip on the ALSA project. Realtek is not listed, but SiS is listed:

                http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main

                But under SiS I don't see the AC'97 chip. So, I dunno if this particular chip is supported or not. On this page:

                http://www.realtek.com.tw/faqs/faqsV...PFid=6&Level=3

                the fifth question down has an answer that says they have a Linux driver and you can download it. But I doubt that is necessary.

                You need the alsa-base and alsa-utils packages installed. You can open Adept Manager and see whether you have them -- if not, mark them for installation and click "Apply" to install them.

                If you didn't have them, then check
                Code:
                aplay -l
                again after you have installed the two packages.

                    Re: NO sound

                    Try this in Konsole:

                    Code:
                     lsmod | grep '^snd'
                    It will list any sound modules that are installed.

                        Yep.

                        OK, we're moving from crisp diagnostics to desperate experiments!

                        In the Konsole, issue this and post whatever output comes back:

                        Code:
                        sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0

                          if this is gonna take a long time,maybe we could discuss this on some kind of IM,it'll be a lot easier

                            Bummer. By the way, I assumed that you checked in the BIOS for that computer and made sure that the sound chip is enabled.

                            Also, in your System Settings>User Management, make sure your user is a member of the "audio" group.


                            Well, I have no special gifts for your sound system. Google found me two things that may be helpful --

                            http://www.realtek.com.tw/Downloads/...&GetDown=false

                            That's the Realtek driver download site -- you can give it a try -- they say their Linux driver works.

                            http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=353950

                            Where they were troubleshooting a Packard Bell with the same AC'97 chip.

                            That's about all I've got to offer -- Google is a great help on these things. Good luck with it.
