I booted without the cd and run it all went through did’nt return any errors looks like it done a lot of installing… I checked theres no sound but I think you expected that?
If it installed updates, apt and dpkg must be working…
Now to the sound card then… can you send the output from these 4 commands entered into a terminal:
sudo lshw -C multimedia
and
sudo aplay -l
and
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
and
lsmod | grep snd
output

And the other 2 commands ?
also… if this is a laptop, can you state the make/model.
theporter2000@theporter2000-desktop:~$ sudo umunt /mnt/natty/proc

NO… you only sent the output from 2 of these 4 commands -
sudo lshw -C multimedia
and
sudo aplay -l
and
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
and
lsmod | grep snd
So I still need the output from:
sudo lshw -C multimedia
and
cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec
2 questions…
a) If this is a laptop… what is the make/model ?
b) is this the same PC where we dealt with the sound issue here:
http://linuxforums.org.uk/general-help-advice/getting-sound-and-video/
no its a full size dell
yes I’ve only ever had one pc with linux
sorry I must have missed that my fault

Run this command:
gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
when gedit opens, see if there is a line that reads:
options snd-hda-intel model=ref
towards the bottom, and let me know.
no there is no line like that
OK, run:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
When gedit opens, add a NEW LINE at the bottom that reads:
options snd-hda-intel model=ref
SAVE the file, and exit gedit.
Now run:
sudo alsa force-reload
is your sound now working ?
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ?
That’s twice now you’ve double posted, and I’ve had to remove the duplicates.
Nor did I ask for any output in my last posting… READ IT AGAIN.
I’ve cleary got lost sorry, please can you tell me again so I get the wright one, but it will have be tomorrow night now sorry again
OK, let’s do this a different way…
Open a terminal, and enter:
sudo cp -v /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf.bak
Hit enter, and your password when asked.
Now enter:
sudo sh -c "echo options snd-hda-intel model=ref >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf"
Hit enter, and your password if/when asked.
Now REBOOT.
When your PC restarts, does your sound work ?
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo cp -v /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf.bak
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf' -> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf.bak’
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo sh -c “echo options snd-hda-intel model=ref >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf”
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
it did’nt ask me for a password or to hit enter at any time?
You’re not doing this from the LiveCD are you ?
Yes I was should have relised with you saying paswd sorry!
I’ve run it again through the hard drive heres the output

theporter2000@theporter2000-desktop:~$ It wasn’t working at first then I rebooted now it dos thank you
No problem
