Hello everybody, I try to get some noise out of my laptop but it doesn' t work... I 've installed SuSE 10.0 OSS (befor I tried it with SuSE 9.3 prof. --> no luck at all) I 've used YaST and also alsaconf but the effect is always the same --> no sound coming out of the internal speakers or headphones... hwinfo --sound gives me the following: x21lx-jensb:/home/jens-ifw # hwinfo --sound 18: PCI 1f.5: 0401 Multimedia audio controller [Created at pci.277] UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_8086_24c5 Unique ID: W60f._VOExn0Yc+B SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1f.5 SysFS BusID: 0000:00:1f.5 Hardware Class: sound Model: "Benq 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller" Vendor: pci 0x8086 "Intel Corporation" Device: pci 0x24c5 "82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller" SubVendor: pci 0x17ff "Benq Corporation" SubDevice: pci 0x5005 Revision: 0x03 Driver: "Intel ICH" I/O Ports: 0xe000-0xe0ff (rw) I/O Ports: 0xe100-0xe13f (rw) Memory Range: 0xf0000000-0xf00001ff (rw,non-prefetchable) Memory Range: 0xf0000200-0xf00002ff (rw,non-prefetchable) IRQ: 6 (75116 events) Module Alias: "pci:v00008086d000024C5sv000017FFsd00005005bc04sc01i00" Driver Info #0: Driver Status: i810_audio is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe i810_audio" Driver Info #1: Driver Status: snd_intel8x0 is active Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_intel8x0" Config Status: cfg=yes, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown Hopefully I get some nice clues or tricks of you guys... cheers Jens Brandenburg
