Hey,
I haven't had any issues building just the driver package (provided your
distro already installs the normal ALSA packages.)
It can't hurt to try though, if you think it may help.
Perhaps some configuration is needed- try 'sudo alsaconf' and use it to
configure your card.
What is the output of 'lsmod | grep snd'?
Thanks,
Bjorn.
Hello Bjorn,
I tried setting 'options snd-hda-intel model=medion' in
/etc/modprobe.conf and now I am a long way further ahead. I still cannot
get any sound out of the thing but at least the card is now recognised
and the panel vol control sees it and can be adjusted. Maybe model=
needs to be set for something else.
alsamixer and amixer still do not work. Outputs below.

alsaconf is not on my system. What package is it in? I thought it was in
alsa-utils.
Thanks for sticking with me on this. Much appreciated.
