See post #41...this is a continuation. Well, I finally got tired of waiting for an update that fixes the problem and tried the method described in #19 (gnuslov, 2008-05-30) above (with the following exceptions).
I tried with ALSA 1.0.16 and with ALSA 1.0.18. Both had compile errors. So, I used ALSA 1.0.20 instead. First I did the whole ./configure, make, sudo make install without changing patch_via.c just in case they fixed the problem. No joy, but my speaker was still working. Then I "sudo make uninstall"'ed, changed patch_via.c and repeated. No joy, but my speaker was still working. There was no ubuntu directory, nevermind an ubuntu/sound/alsa-driver. I was pretty sure at that point that these instructions weren't going to work with either Ubuntu 9.04 or ALSA 1.0.20 (not sure which was the culprit). However, just for kicks, I tried creating the ubuntu/sound path and the alsa-driver symbolic link. No joy. I rebooted and checked the Alsa mixer each time I tested. My speaker is still working fine. How does the method described in #19 need to be altered for Ubuntu 9.04 and ALSA 1.0.20? -- Headphone jack does not work in NC1502 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
