    sudo update-grub
    and reboot wouldn't change a thing and i also don't have the chance to choose a 2.6.31 kernel in the boot menu. Now it says i should be looking into the grub docu for further help but i'm not quiet sure what i'm looking for and also i don't know if i have a 2.6.31 version available at all...may anyone here be of help?

    Thanks a lot!

      You're running kernel 2.6.27-11!? Then you aren't running Karmic.

        I made a distrubution upgrade! But I'm still running the old kernel - apparently...

          I'v seen this befor pleas post the output of

          Code:
          ls /boot/grub
          to see witch grub your using.

          and
          Code:
          ls /boot
          to see what Kernels you do have.

          and if you have grub lagesey (a menu.lst in /boot/grub) post it to.

              Re: 9.10 sound problems

              I would try a
              Code:
              sudo update-grub
              first if you havent yet and if that dosent work then copy this into you'r menu.lst
              direcley ubuve the first 8.10 entry with a root kate

              Code:
              kdesudo kate /boot/grub/menu.lst
              and try to keep the same spacing's then place you'r curser at the end
              of the file and hit enter twice then save end exit and reboot to see if you have the new entry in the grub
              screen

              this is asuming that your Kubuntu on sda1 is controling you'r grub install and not one of the other's

              if so edit acordingley

                direcley ubuve the first 8.10 entry with a root kate

                Code:
                kdesudo kate /boot/grub/menu.lst
                and try to keep the same spacing's then place you'r curser at the end
                of the file and hit enter twice then save end exit and reboot to see if you have the new entry in the grub
                screen

                title Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-17-generic
                kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-17-generic root=UUID=39a078ed-9dcd-4a06-ba41-478f00e1732c ro quiet splash
                initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-17-generic
                this is asuming that your Kubuntu on sda1 is controling you'r grub install and not one of the other's

                if so edit acordingley

                Okay, this seemed to work well after the first reboot, i heard the KDE start sound and got all excited, levels seemed to be normal too for about 30seconds then it all went off and my apps started crashing when accessing pulseaudio or alsa so i thought i'd reboot again and after the 2nd reboot everything seems to be back old, only OSS plays music, no start sound and levels are back at "old". The kernel i'm running now is 2.6.31-17-generic...
                Any idea what else is going on here?
