soundcard problem

Asked by kubo

I`ve never used linux before, so I`m a complete beginner...
I tried to install Dapper Drake on my old computer yesterday and it works fine, but it didn`t recognize my soundcard(AD1816) and I still haven`t made it work yet...
Can anyone help me out (very simple step-by-step guide) ?

Thnx a lot!

You can try this command:

sudo modprobe snd-ad1816a

That should make sound work. If it does, you can make this permanent
with the following command:

echo snd-ad1816a | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
