Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.

For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own. To receive this Complete Guide absolutely free. Problem is, everything as far as 3 of us can see, audio sets up as it should, modules are loaded, settings configured, nothing is muted at all. I've tried ALSA and OSS w/ the same result.

All seemingly loaded properly, but still no sound at all. This is an Enpower 770 laptop from. Alsa should make it work fine, even the 56k modem. So you said you run alsamixer and the volume isn't down to zero? The card requires this ALSA module: sndatiixp (ATI-IXP southbridge AC97 audio) and module snd-atiixp-modem for the modem (ATI-IXP southbridge AC97 modem), which you probably have installed (assuming for the distros you named). Refer to Alsa website if you have to (re)compile and/or install those drivers, is the best source: And for installing the modem using cvs: This Alsa website page says that the alsa driver works fine with the ATI IXP SB400.

The second link is a script actually, and it will not work, since that error tells us you need ALSA debugging enabled in the kernel (option CONFIGSNDDEBUG), most kernels don't have this so you'll have to recompile and install a new kernel for testing it. If you don't rush with this, it may be a second option upgrading to alsa 1.0.10 or newer. This alternative involves installing sndatiixp module from a 1.0.10 or newer alsa, as I said: 1- get the alsa-utils source package (I don't know what's your actual distro). 2- make sure you have installed the linux-headers package (must be consistent with the kernel you are using, of course). 3- Change to dir where new alsa sources are installed now, (I don't recall where they will be) ie: cd /usr/src/linux/sound/alsa-driver-1.0.10 or 11 or /tmp/sound/alsa-driver-X.X.XX 4- Be frugal, configuring just to add sndatiixp module.

Point to the kernel you are building the module this way: './configure -with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.X-X-XXX-XX -with-cards=atiixp' replace X's with kernel version 5- make 6- # make install (#: as root) 7- After installing the module do not depmod, just reboot. If it doesn't work, you (or we) can adjust point 4, or going for option 1.

If you choose to go for option 1, make sure you do not replace installed kernel & its grub or lilo entry (we don't need another problem).

I'm currently running 1.0.11, tried 1.0.12RC, and i originally had 1.0.10 right now i'm messing around w/ the different compile options for alsa drivers to see if maybe i just skipped something simple;-p. So I had (yes, I'm using the past!!) the same problem and got it solved after many hours of desperation.

Doing hardly nothing. I had tried thousands of time to fiddle with the external amplifier on/off togle, and on one last try it seems to have done the trick. I turned it off, rebooted, and I know have sound. Meanwhile, I did tons of fiddling with everything else, so I don't know why or how this is so.

Anyway, regardless of all fiddling. The definite position of external amplifier is OFF + REBOOT.
