Hey, I am getting my Input settings as entirely mute, as they are above, and will consistently reset when I change them to unmute. Alsamixer doesn’t have any of them muted. Any fix for that?

Is there anyway to unmute the input? I have tried unmuting it in the volume control and alsastore -ing it, but nothing so far has worked. Any suggestions?

Thanks Jim. This worked for me using UNR 9.04 using 2.6.28.11. I have not tried with a later version of the kernel.

Thanks this is great. I got it working on a HP Mini110-1000. Got sound to work on2.6.28-14-lpia by installing the linuxant alsa packages from http://www.linuxant.com/alsa-driver/archive/alsa-driver-linuxant-1.0.20.3/alsa-driver-linuxant_1.0.20.3_all.deb.zip. Remove any cruft you may have added /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. Reboot and unmute. Also, no drivers for the ethernet card, so built from source: http://partner.atheros.com/Download.aspx?id=93:

mkdir attansic && cd attansic
tar xf [459]AR813X-linux-v1.0.0.9.tar.gz
make && sudo make install
echo “atl1e” >> /etc/modules
modprobe -a atl1e

Thanks again!

You might need to include “alsactl restore” in /etc/rc.local to get sound at boot time. This was my case

I was bummed when I lost my sound- thanks for the commands! All is well again.
