so I was writing an email about this when the though came to check in my bag
of tricks for a solution to this sound problem! So I grab my 3x5 cards and go
to the 's' section and I see 'Set up ALSA PCI SoundCard' with the
instructions to enter:
amixer groups; amixer set PCM 100 unmute
with the response:
amixer: Unknown command 'groups'...
amixer: Unable to find simple control 'PCM',0
So I do a:
bmike1@0[~]$ lspci

04)
0000:00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C598/694x [Apollo

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV10 [GeForce 256
SDR] (rev 10)
but I don't see the sound card in there (not that this means much).
Yes, there is a pci soundcard in there. At on point in my 'adventures with
linux' I had used the 'Setup ALSA PCI Soundcard' command successfully.
I did investigate the man pages for amixer and it appears to have changed some
but when I modified the command it didn't help.
Ideas? Proposals? What?
