Yes. I tried to recompile because of missing sound suddenly for unknown reason.
When I was recompiling the alsa-driver, it told me that the sound is unmated by default. After finished installing the driver again (without checking if sound is muted or unmated), when using "alsactl store", it returns that "no sound card found". But the sound card is indeed there by "lspci". In alsamixer, there's no "MM" for each volume bars. I have tried to ajust and switch mute mode, it works pretty well. But no sound output. I don't know why! Thanks.

If it says "MM" there, type M to unmute. The volume can be adjusted independently of whether the channel is muted. Did the sound stop working with the new driver? Or you tried to recompile because of missing sound? -- Kushal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
