Hello Group - I'm really confused about what's gone wrong with my sound. Total Silence even though it was working less than two weeks ago after an upgrade to 8.10. User error?, or a bad patch maybe...can you help? I'm running ubuntu 8.10 on a 64-bit machine _______________________________________________________________________ I have done some research and have been following the steps I found at this posting: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=comprehensive+sound First step is this: results appear normal. reid@linux-rv:~$ aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: V8237 [VIA 8237], device 0: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] Subdevices: 4/4 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 card 0: V8237 [VIA 8237], device 1: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 reid@linux-rv:~$ _____________________________________________________________________________ Second step: reid@linux-rv:~$ lspci -v : : 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
