It was working fine before I restored my home directory from a previous installation (on the same machine). But even when I make a new user account it still doesn't work. I have tried alsa-conf & 'dpkg-reconfigure -plow alsa-conf' but they didn't help I have also tried restoring the .gnome configuration files. I think maybe I have to reinstall the drivers? Can anyone point me in the right direction? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
