Hello, I'm running the above hardware with an on-board soundcard. For the life of me, I cannot get sound to work and I've tried using different different boot options. When I run alsamixer, it says my chip is a C-Media Electronics CMI19761, if that helps any. When I try to increase the master volume, it remains at zero. I'm going to do some fiddling around, but if anyone could help me, that'd be great. Thanks! |

More hardware details please, particularly the MoBo brand and model... BTW - The attached signature block is actually less detailed than it could be because of the 1024 character limit. When you're asking questions in an asynchronous forum the more detail you provide up front, the faster you're likely to get a good answer. |

Well, what type of information would you be looking for, it's an nVidia motherboard with that chipset for audio and it's using the AC'97 codec. It's an nForce2 mobo, specifically: http://www.chaintechusa.com/tw/eng/prod ... &PISNo=277 I don't know if I mentioned this before, but I got it to work under R12A5 pretty much out of the box (that is, nothing specifically audio I had to fix). Like I said, when I ran alsamixer, I couldn't adjust the master volume and the PCM volume, whether it was muted or not. According to alsamixer, the Card is NVidia CK8 and the Chip is C-Media Electronics CMI9761. As for other more general stuff, it's got an AMD Athlon XP 2100+ with a GB of physical memory and a separate CD-RW and DVD-ROM, neither of which I care about being in working condition. I doubt most of that stuff towards the end would help, though. I'll keep on trucking with this and I'll be sure to tell you all if I get it working. Thanks! |

That's exactly the kind of detail needed. Nvidia makes several different chipsets after all, not to mention the other stuff the MoBo mfr uses around it. I suspect I'm too brain damaged to really answer this at the moment. However you may want to go into setup and poke around with the sound stuff there. It's either under General or TV -> Playback. Try flipping the setting of "use internal volume control"... |

I've actually alread tried that already... if anybody else has any suggestions, I'm open for them... I'm thinking it has something to do with ALSA. |
