First, we all know there are a lot of problems with sound on Ubuntu. Ubuntu is short on qualified manpower in this area, and most are volonteers.
The HDA codec, as the original poster has, is problematic on all Linux distributions as every new model of laptop that comes out needs a different quirk to be applied, which must be done manually. For more information, see http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/docs/HD-Audio.html Meanwhile you can help out by trying the Karmic distribution and see if sound works there, or try to help yourself, e g by trying the instructions listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto -- sound problems with Ubuntu 9.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/410913 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
