+ | ====== Intel 82801G Under Debian Etch ====== | ||
+ | After installing Debian Etch on my PC, I was unable to hear any sound. I found a thread on the issue at http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1488. I followed the directions of the user who said he solved the problem by compiling alsa-source. Here are my step-by-step instructions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. Switch to root, install module-assistant and alsa-source, and then start module-assistant. | ||
+ | |||
+ | sudo su | ||
+ | apt-get install module-assistant alsa-source | ||
+ | module-assistant | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. In module-assistant, select the //PREPARE// option. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. Choose the //SELECT// option. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Check the //Alsa// box then select //OK//. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. Choose the //BUILD// option. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 6. When prompted, select //Yes// to download and //Yes// to install. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 7. Quit module-assistant. | ||
+ | |||
+ | At this point, your sound should work, although you may need to restart any sound utilities. It may be a good idea to reboot here. | ||
+ | |||
+ | After one kernel update, my sound card kinda went nuts. It basically repeats the sounds it should play over and over again, causing noise. It seems like the sounds are repeating on multiple channels as well. Repeating the process above solved that problem as well. |
