Nothing fancy, just want to play cd's on Amarok

on the taskbar on bottom is the a speaker and is it red crossed out.?

on a terminal type "dmesg |grep sound"

see if it has sound entry.

No sir, the speaker is not "x'd" out. I also typed what you asked on a term window and got no entry back. Since posting my message, I upgraded to 8.10 and still have the no sound output.

ok try "dmesg | grep Realtek ac97"

you want to make sure it is enabled. Right mouse button click on the Speaker open Volume Control move up PCM and make sure it isn't muted.

ok, no I am not muted.

This is what I got:

brock@brock-desktop:~$ dmesg | grep Realtek ac97
grep: ac97: No such file or directory
brock@brock-desktop:~$

the PCM is turned up?

yes sir. I right click on the speaker icon and it shows me the PCM mixer and it is turned up all the way.

Can you do dmesg and paste it here please ??? It is usually long I'm looking to see if it listed if it is and enabled then it might be a driver bug. I will look in my database for software driver to fix it.

ok you need a driver I will get a quick link for you to download.

download this please
ftp://202.65.194.211/pc/audio/realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.bz2

it's downloaded but Im not sure how to install it. It is located in my temp dir.

ok my friend no problem...
it is a driver pack from realtek itself good drivers..
open a terminal cd /tmp
ok most basic files are install like gcc etc.
after you type "cd /tmp" then tar xjf realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.bz2 it untars to realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a
then type "./install" if errors give a yell.

oops you have to cd realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.bz2 into the directory before ./install

ok I think I did everything you asked properly but Im sure I didn something wrong in the terminal window.

sorry man forgot to tell you to change directory first. "cd realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a/"
then type "./install" no quotes.

cd while still in the temp dir or back to my root dir?

no in the tmp

list the temp or tmp directory there should be a directory called realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a cd into that..
cd realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a/
then type ./install

no errors..it's done. I assume I need to reboot and try it out.

yes...but it should be working right now.

try if not try type at a terminal type "sudo ldconfig" see if it plays. if not reboot..

sorry Leo..Im still not getting anything...even under another music player. Sure hate to waste your time on this!

try a reboot?

yes sir I did, and I tried the sudo ldconfig before and after the reboot

it might be a bug I will check something real quick..

boy I know should of asked before??what kind of computer is it?? model etc..
eg: HP Pavilion dv8135nr <-- this is mine.

and is it completely updated just have to ask..sorry?

Presario 061,
model PW532AA-ASA SR1403WM NA520
the sound card is integrated on a Asustek Salmon ver1.04 MB

Pretty much updated. There is one bios upgrade available that I didn't bother with.

I got this message going to software sources. This woulndt have anything to do with what we are working on would it?

E: Type 'n' is not known on line 46 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: Unable to lock the list directory

ok thanks, yeah I got that problem figured out. Are we giving up on the audio problem for now?

question:
If I am using usb speakers do I even need to concern myself with soundcard drivers?

Thanks Leo Albert Jackson Jr, that solved my question.
