sound not available after upgrade from intrepid

[toshiro]

Hi,

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 with Ubuntu, everything had been running perfectly under Intrepid but, after I upgraded to Jaunty, the sound card has not been recognized anymore; if I boot with the previous kernel version (2.6.27, the upgrade didn't remove it) the sound is recognized just fine.

I usually had problems with the sound hardware before but I had a method to fix the problem:

cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/sound/alsa-driver/pci/hda
mv snd-hda-intel.ko.REPLACEDBYhsfmodem snd-hda-intel.ko
cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates
rm snd-hda-intel.ko
rm snd-hda-codec.ko
depmod -a
update-initramfs -u


Unfortunately I can't apply this method with the Jaunty provided kernel (2.6.28) anymore (the directory does not exist in 2.6.28); do you know how can I fix this sound issue??

Thanks in advance,

Toshiro.

It might work for you, too.
