Description Oliver Kirchkamp 2005-11-02 16:51:50 UTC
I installed SuSE 10.0 final from scratch on my ASUS S5600 Notebook and initially sound worked without a problem. I installed some online updates, suddenly sound stopped working and the mixer would only show some odd controls (3D), no volume control.

Sound does still work with 9.3.

I installed again SuSE 10.0 final from scratch, now did the online update before detecting hardware. Result: No soundcard found by Yast.

Yast's sound module, however, claims that I have 2 soundards, one, Card Model "Sound Card" running with snd-intel8x0, the other "not configured" "82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller". It is not possible to delete any of these cards (Yast just ignores my request to delete them), when I "edit" the first card, the yast module crashes, when I edit the second card I get "An error occurred during the installation of 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller The kernel module snd-intel8x0 for sound support could not be loaded..."

In /etc/sysconfig/hardware there is a file hwcfg-bus-pci-00:1f.5 with content
MODULE='snd-intel8x0' STARTMODE='auto'
