Dear Pithball, Thanks for trying to help me. I will now perform the steps you mentioned. > Ok. Try this. > Change your /etc/modprobe.conf back to its original form < then try this routine again and copy and paste all terminal output here. For some reason, I have /etc/modprobe.d/sound, so I moved that to /tmp. I guess that's okay. [root@localhost etc]# grep -ri snd mod* | grep -v "#" modprobe.conf.old:alias snd-card-0 snd-cs4236 modprobe.conf.old:alias sound-slot-0 snd-cs4236 modprobe.conf.old:options snd-cs4236 port=0x530 cport=0x538 isapnp=0 dma1=1 dma2=0 irq=5 modprobe.d/sound:alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel modprobe.d/sound:alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel [root@localhost etc]# mv modprobe.d/sound /tmp > $ /sbin/service alsasound stop [root@localhost etc]# /sbin/service alsasound stop Shutting down sound driver: done > $ lsmod | grep snd [root@localhost etc]# lsmod | grep snd snd_page_alloc 11272 0 Is correct. My /etc/init.d/alsasound explicitly omits to rmmod snd_page_alloc. > $ /sbin/service alsasound start [root@localhost etc]# /sbin/service alsasound start Gives no output at all. > $ lsmod | grep snd [root@localhost etc]# lsmod | grep snd snd_page_alloc 11272 0 Hmmm, nothing because I removed the modprobe conf? > Look in > $ alsamixer [root@localhost etc]# alsamixer alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device Cannot run alsamixer now. > Also post your /root/scsound.log file after you do > $ system-config-soundcard [root@localhost ~]# cat scsound.log ------- System Config Soundcard -------- Mon Jul 31 14:28:47 CEST 2006 ------- lspci -------- 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 04) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 04) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 04) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 2 (rev 04) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 3 (rev 04) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 04) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 (rev 04) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 (rev 04) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 (rev 04) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 04) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev d4) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 04) 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) IDE Controller (rev 04) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 04) 06:01.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCI1510 PC card Cardbus Controller 06:04.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (rev 05) 06:08.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
