Installing audio driver on Santa Rosa - Solved

Re: Installing audio driver

Step one of the guide was successful so I don't really know how to continue. This is the result:

mikael@Tricorder:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: HDA Generic [HDA Generic]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0


Edit:
I followed some of the later steps in the guide but did not get any results. Do you think I'd have better luck with some other Ubuntu version?

Re: Installing audio driver

Success!

I changed to the normal Ubuntu (probably for nothing but I don't dislike it) and followed instructions I previously misunderstood that I got from Zepto where I bought the laptop. I had to copy/paste it row by row but now the sound works. I probably could have done it with Kubuntu but I didn't think of it before I got frustrated enough to ry Ubuntu to see if it would work as-is.

Thanks for your help!

This is what I did:
