    no sound

    first off i would unfortunatly like to state that i am a newb. my friend walked me through the install over aim. I have done some stuff in konsole so i guess im not 100% newb. but anyway be super detailed please.

    now the problem... i have no sound i tried messing with all the sliders and options and stuff and nothing works. i opened up alsamixer in konsole and it said card: HDA Intel then chip: Realtek ALC885. If i plug headphones in the headphones work great. if anyone can point me in the right direction i would be greatfull.

        In alsamixer, what is listed under Master and PCM? This is what my settings reflect:

        Code:

              Re: no sound

              When you boot from the LiveCD, do you have working sound? This is important. If you do, then you don't have a hardware conflict/problem. If you don't, then at least we are looking at either a hardware or a driver problem.

                at the grub esc prompt press esc before the countdown, if there is another kernel, boot into the older one, do u get sound?
