[dundee] No sound in Ubuntu

[Chris Nightingale]

Hi I'm Chris.

 

I have a similar problem, however I get no sound at all in any distro. I've tried Ubuntu, Fedora, PCLinuxOS, and I am currently using LinuxMint.

 

I have tried all the fixes on the Ubuntu forums, and none of them have worked unfortunately.

 

I have an Acer 6920G if that is of any help.

 

I would love to have sound so I can actually use Linux for more than typing up coursework.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Chris

I’m Paul and I’m a Windows user! :P
 
I’ve been dabbling with Linux for a while now, and have settled on Ubuntu, however, I’ve been battling with an issue for a good number of weeks now.  The issue is that I can’t seem to get any sound output in Ubuntu.  The type of laptop is an HP Pavilion DV7 2030EA and from what I read, Ubuntu really doesn’t like the HP range. L
 
I’ve tried to use ndiswrapper, backports, and had a good read of the ubuntu forums and can’t seem to get it sorted which is a shame as if I could get sound output then I’d really have no need to use Windows, or use it less!!
 
I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to what I can try next as I’m pretty much at a loss now.
 
Thanks,
 
Paul.
