I had the same problem with my T60. Sound was very low when I ran sound preferences tests.
What fixed mine was to recompile alsa. I don't have the exact steps but basically I 1. Downloaded source by running apt-get source alsa-source 2. Used module-assistant to recompile alsa sudo module-assistant prepare sudo module-assistant update sudo module-assistant prepare sudo module-assistant build alsa 3. Restart alsa or reboot or restart gnome That's it! I have sound working again. I couldn't get any work done without any music so finally. Now, if someone could only help me with suspending my laptop... -- "Realtek 861 sound broken on kernel 2.6.22-10.30" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/134146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
