got sound working on my acer extensa 5220 - realtek alc268 headphone plug now works and automutes internal speaker. i also have now all necessary mixer controls.
needed to install the "linux-backports-modules-generic" package and adding manually the following line at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base : options snd-hda-intel model=acer i think sound is not as loud as in windows xp but loud enough for me. thanks for help... i think that new ubuntu users shall be told that they have to install the package and add the line if they own the realtek 268 chipset -- No audio INTEL HD audio - Realtek ALC268 codec - Toshiba A205-S4577 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/116326 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
