Hi Anton. I notice that the "soundcore" module doesn't show on your lsmod, which it does on my Lenny install, but with a different soundcard. does your full lsmod show the "soundcore" module installed? What do you get if you run. cat /proc/asound/cards Is your soundcard listed as card0? Just another thought. Are you as user listed as a user for the audio group in /etc/group? Try alsamixer on the CLI as user. Perhaps there are controls muted. the M key unmutes them. Perhaps sliders just need to be pushed up a bit. It's usual for alsamixer to set things at a low level, to protect your speakers, and ears. I have just built a new machine which has a MCP61 southbridge, but don't have Lenny installed on it yet, and anyway the mobo is using snd-hda-intel. Sounds work ok, and the nearest to Lenny that is installed, is Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon at the moment. The latest kernel on my Lenny install is 2.6.21-2-686, but I did see some problems on the alsa-devel list with either 2.6.24, or 2.6.25 kernels, and MCP51, MCP61, and some other (sorry I've dumped the post). it will be in the alsa-devel archives though. All I can think of at the moment. Nigel. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
