NO sound (SOLVED)

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

i tried the dmesg command too,but it gave me a result that doesn't even fit in one post here

Run:

dmesg tail 100

This lists just the last 100 lines of the file.

Re: NO sound

Sorry! Correct command is:

tail -n100 /var/log/dmesg

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

Okay, the last two lines of the log file show the problem.

In a console type:

sudo modprobe soundcore
sudo modprobe ac97_bus

(separate commands)

[mhh91]

Re: NO sound

nothing happens with both commands,i will be going to bed as it's got too late now where i live,we'll continue tomorrow

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

"nothing happens" is good. You won't see anything if the modules load. Have you performed a normal shutdown and reboot yet?

[mhh91]

Re: NO sound

yes,i did,same error

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

Let's now see if the two modules are actually installed. Open a console and type:

lsmod | grep snd
lsmod | grep ac97

Best to copy each line above and paste into the console.

[mhh91]

Re: NO sound

nope,nothing happens with both commands


and i DO copy and paste them into Konsole

[nowshining]

Re: NO sound

if nothing shows then they aren't loaded..

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

Which is odd. I'm inclined to believe that a modules file isn't installed. If you open Adept Manager and search on linux-ubuntu-modules what results, specifically, are all of them marked as installed?

[mhh91]

Re: NO sound

well,only generic modules are installed,should i install them all?

[Snowhog]

Re: NO sound

No, not directly. Search on linux-generic as see if it is installed - it should be. If it isn't, mark it for installation. This meta-package will install all the other modules based on the kernel versions you have installed on your system.

[mhh91]

Re: NO sound

it wasn't installed,now it is

what next?

[nowshining]

Re: NO sound

reboot and now see if ur sound works?
