Remember that none of use know your machine nor can see what happened when you
did things. You have to tell us everything.
What does "which seems to not do what it should" mean? Little dancing bears
rushed out the kitchen and attacked your ankle?

Do you know what the sound card is on the Asus EEE 1001PX? Is sound working at
all-- ie if you play a sound file, does it play? Does it beep, gurggle or
whistle at all?

The web page
http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/Eee_PC_1001PX_Seashell/#specifications
seems to be saying that the machine has no audio at all. Is this right? Have
you ever heard sounds come from it, or had it record anything?
(Other places seem to suggest that it does have a sound card).

Post the output of lspci here so we can see what the soundcard is.
