Upon boot, I get this popup (kde) message: X Informational - artsmessage Source server information message: Error while initialzing the sound driver: Device: default can be opened for playback (no such file or directory) The sound server will continue, using the null output device. What did I miss, in the kernel? something in kde configs/desktop setting? Alsa, Jack and a host of audio software is installed but nothing works. I can get kscd to play a cd, it reads the name of the song, says it's at 40% percent volume, but no sound. I'm not certain I've activated everything in the kernel. lspci -v shows: 0000:00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] Sound Controller (rev a0) Subsystem: CLEVO/KAPOK Computer: Unknown device 0402 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 173, IRQ 5 I/O ports at 1c00 I/O ports at 1800 [size=128] Capabilities: [48] Power Management version 2 Any ideas are most welcome.....
