I have the very same machine (Acer X1200). I get sound by sudo aptitude -y install build-essential libncurses-dev gettext xmlto xmltoman linux-headers-`uname -r` sudo mkdir -p /usr/src/alsa cd /usr/src/alsa sudo wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/driver/alsa-driver-1.0.18a.tar.bz2 sudo wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/lib/alsa-lib-1.0.18.tar.bz2 sudo wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/utils/alsa-utils-1.0.18.tar.bz2 sudo wget ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/plugins/alsa-plugins-1.0.18.tar.bz2 sudo tar xjf alsa-driver*.bz2 sudo tar xjf alsa-lib*.tar.bz2 sudo tar xjf alsa-utils*.tar.bz2 sudo tar xjf alsa-plugins*.tar.bz2 cd alsa-driver* sudo ./configure --with-cards=all --with-card-options=all sudo make sudo make install cd ../alsa-lib* sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install cd ../alsa-utils* sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install cd ../alsa-plugins* sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install sudo reboot cat /proc/asound/devices aplay -l # will see device 0,3 sudo alsamixer # unmute the IE958 entry sudo alsactl store 0 #must do this as sudo... doesn't work yet as a paste.. cat > /etc/asound.conf << DELIM defaults.pcm.device 3 DELIM Note, I never see any indication of HDMI with aplay -L, only with aplay -l At that point, I can get sound by the Pref-Sound panel, switching everything to nVidia HDMI. Also note that you appear to need 177.80 to get any sound, and 177.82 if you want 5.1. I have personally rolled back to 173 b/c 177 kills Flash performance on the 8200, but 173 does not appear to support audio over HDMI (aplay -l shows the device, but no sound...), so I am using 173 HDMI video and the 6-ch analog outputs until I hear back from nVidia. It’s the same Hotmail®. If by “same” you mean up to 70% faster. Get your account now. |
