Hi, my laptop(Dell1400)'s speakers never work in Gentoo(headphones can work). But server days ago, I installed Ubuntu and I found that the speakers work(headphones also work)! I thought the alsa-driver could not drive my sound card properly before, and now, I think there must be some way since Ubuntu can work. # lspci | grep Audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02) /******** In Gentoo ***********/ $ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.16rc2 (Thu Jan 31 16:40:16 2008 UTC). /******** In Ubuntu ***********/ $ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.16.
