I found another good solution: By default, the alsa modules are installed without any options. Unfortunately, the intel-hda drivers now require options to specify which hardware versions to support, and ubuntu doesn't specify any of those options when compiling the alsa modules. Here's a way to fix it on your local machine until the package is fixed.
Add a line like this to /etc/alsa/alsa-source.conf: ALSA_CARD_OPTIONS="hda-codec-<your hardware>" Here are the possible options from the configure scripts: hda-codec-realtek, hda-codec-analog, hda-codec-sigmatel, hda-codec-via, hda-codec-atihdmi, hda-codec-conexant, hda-codec-cmedia, hda-codec-si3054, hda-generic Once that's done, run the following commands: sudo aptitude install module-assistant sudo m-a update sudo m-a prepare sudo m-a a-i alsa -- snd-hda-intel unknown symbols with generic kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217816 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
