I am a newbee in Linux mint land and these technical phrases don't mean didley to me. Everything is working fine, except my soundcard. Sometimes there is no sound at all, and sometimes there is. As a heavy user of windows I think this is a conflict between an on board soundcard and a newly installed one. On board AK77 Pro (or plus (don't know excactly)) and new is: Sweex 5.1 pci soundcard. Does anybody know....?:confused:

Well Ruud...i don`t think you need two soundcards, right? :D btw what graphical interface are you using? (kde or gnome)
If you are using gnome look in the:
and see what device is using default!Code:gnome-volume-control
I guess this is the onboard soundcard:
and this:Quote:

is the other soundcard on PCIQuote:
Multimed. audiocontr. C-media Electr.Inc. CM 8738 (rev 10)
My ideea is to turn off the onboard soundcard from bios and see if it`s work!
Cheers!
O.K. i`ll give it a try and let you know if sound will work all the time instead of sometimes
hi any one ,i am using backtrack 3 my audio device is Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Aud
io Controller (rev 02).
my problem nooooo soooound.
help
Bobescalin,
I did switche off my onboard audio in the bios and as it seems everything works allright. I assumed by misstake that lunix works more or less like windows (and because windows did not care about these two audiodevices....), but i think this is wrong. Once more thank you for your suggestions, great help.
Greetings,
Ruud
I am glad you maded! Anyway CM 8738 is more stable than the other soundcard in linux! :D
Cheers!
btw...start a new thread and then we will see what we can do! :)Quote:
