Hi Michael,

Would you mind to give us more information about your sound card by running this command from your terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal) ?

$ lspci -vv | grep Audio
$ sudo lshw | grep Audio

It would be very helpful to resolve the problem. Cheers...

Would you please write here the error you've got? Almost all linux distribution has that command. Try this:
$ lspci -vv | grep Audio

Let me know.. you have trouble again.

Luky,
I put in #lspsci and it prompted me to start over like it wanted me to do another command to follow that one .
Also the Horizontal symbol I is this a letter. on the dell mini I have to use the (fn) shift key which is blue and then hit the blue horizontal symbol.

type (or copy and paste with the mouse. CtrlV doesn't work, oddly, but mouse paste is fine)

lspci

Luky,

I think sending the whole lot would be easiest. It's not exactly information that would help anyone compromise your security or anything like that, it's not got your real ip address or anything at all useful to nasty people ;) However, if you are shy in this public forum then perhaps use the "Contact this user" on the page
https://launchpad.net/~luckyborneo
but you can only send messages in this way 3 times in any 24hr period so mostly we try to avoid using it. Oh, here's my page which i've personalised quite a bit :)
https://launchpad.net/~tomdavies04

and your own
https://launchpad.net/~mlp247

You can see your email address on your own page (just as i can see mine on my page) but you also seem to have chosen to hide your email address, which seems quite sensible to me :)

Hope this helps
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Hi Michael,

Good to hear you again.
I think your command line is not correct. Look at mine here:
lucky@lucky-desktop:~$ sudo lshw | grep Audio
then...
lucky@lucky-desktop:~$ sudo lspci | grep Audio

That's it.. paste them here, dude. Cheers...

The | character is on your keyboard. On an english keyboard (or american) it's usually the key with the \ on the opposite side of the keyboard from the / it's usually between the z and the shift key. Press shift and \ to get it. On the keyboard it is often marked slightly differently to the way it appears on-screen, possibly in a more meaningful way than what appears on-screen.

Note taht on the command-line making a typo or mistake that confuses the command often results in it printing out it's help file. However, sometimes it could be disastrous. A better way to get the commands helpfile is to type " --help" or sometimes just a " -h" does the trick. This isn't special to Ubuntu, all distros have this feature on the command-line, or at least all the one's i have tried do. For example try

lspci --help

lshw --help

grep --help

sudo --help

Often when someone gives advice in a public forum like this it is wise to use this help feature to check that what you are doing makes sense and looks like it will do the right thing. I've not yet seen anyone give dangerous advice but it's theoretically possible. Mostly tho, the help feature is useful for when you can't quite remember, or don't quite understand but know roughly what you need to do.

Hope this helps
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

My operating system is Ubuntu 9.10. This Toshiba Satellite P205-S6267 Labtop's audio has not function since I installed Ubuntu onto it.

Any assistance is welcome,

Hi :)
Please post this as a new question. Launchpad doesn't have a system for dealing with older questions so most answerers have look only at the newer "unSolved" questions. Here is a link to post a new question

If this question really is similar then you can always copy&paste this link into the question so people can see what you might have tried already
