Bug Description
I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on a Dell Optiplex 980, and I don't get any sound whatsoever.
Using the HDAAnalyzer (http://
(Note: I think something else will need to be done as well so that the sound to the speakers connected to the rear jack is muted when headphones are connected to the front jack.)
I created a firmware patch (attached as optiplex-

but for some reason it didn't work.

cd ~
wget ftp://ftp.
tar xvf hda-verb-
cd hda-verb-0.3/
make
sudo cp hda-verb /usr/local/bin/
sudo vim /etc/rc.local
Then I added these 2 lines to /etc/rc.local before the line that says exit 0:
/usr/local/
/usr/local/

Bryan, I believe the fw file does not work because the verbs are applied before the parser inits the chip, and that the driver initialization reverts the changes done. Have a look at #582199 for more information.
