Hello there ,

I installed OpenSuse 10.3 and everything works fine except the sound …

After running

     wgethttp://home.cfl.rr.com/infofiles/tsalsa

then the script in konsole

     bash tsalsa

here’s the info generated :tsalsa.txt - nopaste.com (beta)

My laptop is an hp nx7400

The audio device is : 00:1b.0 Audio device [Class 0403]: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller [8086:27d8] (rev 01)

rpm -q alsa alsa-utils alsa-firmware gives this :

I copied your post from the SF archives. Originally dated 4-June-08, I completely missed it, as there was a lot happening with the forum merge. I hope you managed to make it over after the merge, to our new merged forum.

wrt to your problem, I see your laptop has an AD1981. The model=3stack is incorrect from what I know. The options for an AD1981 are basic (default), hp, thinkpad, toshiba.

Try changing “3stack” to “hp” (or one of the other options). Then restart your alsa from a konsole with:
rcalsasound restart

If that doesn’t work, then please post here the output of:
rpm -qa ‘alsa
rpm -q libasound2

Good luck.
