Re: How do I install sound driver in Ubuntu 9.04

You're machine should already have it. Most drivers are built into the kernel and Ubuntu should be using in-kernel ALSA (Linux sound stuff). What are the symptoms of the problem?

Post the output of the following commands:

lspci

lsmod

amixer


If any of the commands gives you "command not found: command" post the output of: whereis command

Hi,

Can you go up to the sound icon and make sure that nothing is muted.

Cheers!
