Hi there,
NEWBY WARNING!
I finally found out that to get sound to work I need to install some drivers for linux from ASUS.
I’ve got them, but how do I install them? :shame:
Cheers,
It’s possible you might want to look here first
Hardware - openSUSE
You could tell us what we are dealing with.
lspci -v
from a su terminal can give useful info
Please provide more info on your hardware.
Do you mean the onboard sound of the ASUS M3N-HT Deluxe?
If this is the case, you have to update your BIOS to the latest version. No additional drivers are needed.
The easiest way should be:
- Download the most recent BIOS release from ASUSTeK Computer Inc.-Support-
- Unzip it, then put the extracted file on a USB drive (filesystem should be FAT as far as I know) or a CD.
- Reboot, enter the BIOS setup screen by pressing DEL when the ASUS splash screen is displayed
- Enter the EZ-Flash utility (I don’t know it’s exact location, should be under “Tools”)
- Follow the instructions on the screen (locate the BIOS image and be sure to have a stable power line
)
HI,
The h/ware support page is very interesting, thanks!
So is lspci -v must remember that one.
At moment I’m trying to install SUSE over a trashed Ubuntu upgrade. Waiting on answers re that, too.
Only hard part here is that I’m in Oz and stable power is like expecting ADSL to be reliable (512/256 averages half that in the jungle of Nth Queensland… 
)
Thanks will try it.
