I installed openSUSE 10.2 on my brand new Toshiba Satellite A205-S4577, and the sound is the only component that didn't work correctly. The sound card is detected and volume is turned all the way up in mixers and the phyisical volume control. Media play but there's no sound. No errors, there just isn't audio. I used Yast to update the alsa packages to the latest version but this did not help. According to the Alsa wiki, this sound card is supported in the most recent version of Alsa. The upgrade didn't make any difference on this machine. I even downloaded and compiled the latest version of alsa-driver, alsa-util and alsa-lib, this added a bunch of mixers, enabling me to turn up the volume on all channels but did not produce any sound. I've tried changing combinations of volumes, hooking up speakers, but there's no result. I finally decided to remove alsa and reinstall all of it, but I don't think I did it properly, because even after I reinstalled the latest version from source it didn't work. I've looked through mailing lists, wikis, forums, and found nothing that's worked correctly. What else should I do? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?
