Dear Marvin, You are a rockstar. Reinstalling the linux-image did the trick. Re the 2.6.31.20-generic variant - I just have the linux-generic package installed and this is the most current version it loaded from the karmic repositories. I did not even know how that was working. But reinstalling it and rebooting did the trick, now I have my sound back again so I am pretty happy. So now that that works - do you have any recommendation for getting the modem working too?
