Ok
I suffered for along time with my laptop not being able to have sound or effects
I have intel HDA ICH7 & and sigmatel
anyway i think this solution will probably help every one. cause now, guess what!!!!!
I have sound & i swear its higher, better and even more clearer than xp or vista
I missed up ALSA trying to update it & recompiling the new version.
so I suggest that u reinstall fresh copy of gusty if u did the same things as I have done.
Now to start the solving the problem:
after getting a fresh copy of gusty installed
*** 1- made sure you get it updated: in the "menu bar" go to "System" menu and -> "Administration" -> "Update Manager"
*** 2- click on "check" & wait for it to load
*** 3- now click on "install updates" & wait, it could take a long time with slow internet connection and/or busy servers.
*** 4- reboot
*** 5- in the "menu bar" go to "System" menu and -> "Administration" -> "Software Sources"
*** 6-now select the "Updates" tab
*** 7-In the "update" tab, you have to select all the first 4 options:
generally u will have only the first 2 selected:
----------------> you have to select the options "Unsupported updates" => the third box
---------------> also select "Pre-released updates" => the forth box
"DO NOT CLICK REVERT"
*** 8-Now click on close
*** 9-restart
*** 10-login
*** 11-connect to the internet
*** 12,a- When prompted to update do it
* if not prompted:
*** 12,b- in the "menu bar" go to "System" menu and -> "Administration" -> "Update Manager"
*** 13-in the "update manager" window click on "check" & wait for it to reload the new software updates
*** 14- now click on "install updates" & wait, it could take a long time with slow internet connection and/or busy servers.
ALMOST DONE bare with me
*** 15-click close after getting update success
*** 16-go to "System" menu and -> "Preferences" -> "Sound"
*** 17- set: A-the first 3 choice boxes to "auto detect " B-the 4th to ALSA C-the last one to intel HDA
*** 18-restart
& voalaaaaaa it works.
