Asked by Prodigy

I cannot get any sound on my Toshiba P100

here is what i get from lspci

...
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
...

and this is the output of aplay -l

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: CONEXANT Analog [CONEXANT Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: Conexant Digital [Conexant Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

I am pretty sure it's the CONEXANT codec who is wrong that is probably my modem output but I don't know how to change it.

Any help would be appreciated.
