The same problem happened on both machines. When rebooted to kernel 2.6.18 the sound output does work. gnome volume control says: "No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found." Multimedia Systems Selector says: "Autodetect: Could not open resource for writing." You can see from my previous mail that snd_cs46xx was loaded as a module with kernel 2.6.18. After some lengthy investigation it looks to me as though the driver was dropped for the etchnhalf kernel release. Am I right? Is there another way to test this? Thanks. r...@baron:~# uname -a Linux baron 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686 #1 SMP Tue Dec 2 07:56:33 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux r...@baron:~# lsmod Module Size Used by ipt_REJECT 4608 2 ipt_LOG 6176 3 xt_tcpudp
