Lenovo 3000 N200 - Linux Laptop Wiki
I added this line to modprobe.conf (in /etc)
options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo
Rebooted and all works fine - I have same lappy.
where there on the end of modprobe.conf?
yup… 
Make a copy first if you are nervous.
I am not nervous…but I do it…no changes…there is no sound…
I put your line in the options area on modprobe…
is your line correct…?
This is a Mandriva method. On openSUSE we prefer to add such options in the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file.
One could add that line to the “options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo” to the end of the /etc/modprobe.d/sound file, and then test their sound by restart alsa with: rcalsasound restart
I pass as to the best practice
When i couldn’t get sound working, googled. And thats working fine for me.
I edit the sound file in the modeprobe but now I get a terrible piep voice but no sound…
if I give the command rcalsasound restart in the terminal for restart alsa than I get an error command not found…
how I can mark this thread as finished…now I have sound the problem is fixed…
the solution is…as first you have to install alsa firmware completly than to put the change in the sound file…thanks a lot for help…
well i am new to linux and I am quite sure of the command lines. I tried opening the file modprobe but then i could not edit it as I do not have the rights. how do i edit it. Well i did try sudo in the terminal guess I was wrong or something was not rite…
could someone help
sudo is for Ubuntu. Not openSUSE.
If using KDE, to open an editor with root permissions try: kdesu kwrite
If using Gnome, to open an editor with root permissions, try: gnomesu youreditor
where “youreditor” is your favorite gnome text editor.
