No sound on HP ZE2113US Laptop

#1 Post by Fox7777 »

Attached are a couple screenshots. We are trying to get Puppy 1.0.5 on this laptop ready for demo at Raincoast this weekend,
see http://www.raincoast.info . Sound works on our mid tower computer but not yet on this HP ZE2113US laptop. How do we get sound working?

It appears you have an ATI IXP onboard audio controller. This chip is supported by the ALSA snd-atiixp module ... and as luck would have it, ALSA is apparently in Puppy 1.0.5. Do this -
modprobe snd-atiixp

modprobe snd-atiixp returns the following:
# modprobe snd-atiixp
Note: /etc/modules.conf is more recent than /lib/modules/2.4.29/modules.dep
modprobe: Can't locate module snd-atiixp

following is from our modules.conf:
#Puppy 1.0.0, added Alsa support...
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

Would it be possible to import a driver that works & if so, how?

Sorry, I assumed ALSA was in 1.0.5, but apparently not.

You could compile ALSA yourself. I posted my success with ALSA here -
