Hi, I have the same laptop (cpu Intel c2duo T5870, ATI mobility Radeon HD 3430, same audio chip). It's currently running Kubuntu 10.10 but was running Debian Squeeze for a while. What surprises me is that with Squeeze kernel you should not need the line options snd-hda-intel model=laptop enable=1 index=0 in alsa-base.conf, it was only necessary for me prior to kernel 2.6.30. The fn+mute key has a very strange behavior sometimes, the proper state (muted or not) is not shown in the various sound applets I used (in gnome and kde), but the mute key works nonetheless and when it is used to mute the sound you may need to use it again to de-mute, it won't work using only the sound applet from your desktop environment. Maybe you can try playing with this key and double check in between with alsamixer that no channel is muted. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
