Well, I just took a look at your lspci output (I know, I should have done that before) and realizesd I have the same exact sound card as you, the MCP61 and I have sound. Let me check if I can find some stuff on this end. I do remember I had to go above and beyond to get it working, but can't remember exactly what I did. I'll post back when I figure it out.

Well, it doesn't recognize your sound card. Trying figuring out what it is.

Well thanks, bidi!

It would be a real help!

HA! I think I found it.

Go into /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and add the following line at the very bottom:

options snd-hda-intel model=auto

Then go to /etc/modprobe.d/sound and add (this file might not exist):

options snd-hda-intel index=0

I think one of those two did it for me. Try that out than run "alsaconf" again.

Sorry buddy, it does not work.

On top of it, the file
/etc/modprobe.d/sound

is overwritten, every next time I use alsaconfig

first update your alsa package then use again alsaconf and if it`s not working eather use the module options.

Cheers!

Can you try

modprobe -v snd-hda-intel

and see if the driver is loaded? It's going to load a bunch other stuff with it, at least it should.

I'll keep poking around here to see if I can remember what it was I did.

I think it does load the modules, since on running the command, I get :

raman# modprobe -v snd-hda-intel
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-686/kernel/sound/core/snd-page-alloc.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-686/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko

Well, did I mention before, that the system plays the audio files , say with
mplayer, but I hear no sound.

Thanks!

I found this post searching google:
MCP61 High Definition Audio - Ubuntu Forums

Try using one of the models he mentions there (6stack, 3stack, etc).

EDIT: By the way, I wasn't able to find anything different on my system except for the model definition in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.

Hi, I have a similar problem. Using Zenwalk 5.2, ES18xx driver for my soundcard. Everything seems to be fine-player shows titles and is running, but mute. I tried searching forums and googled, but no hint how to unmute. Any advice? Hardi2000
