Hi, I'm running Puppy on a Shuttle "Bare Bones" PC that came preinstalled with another form of Linux. Everything is working fine except that I cannot get any sound out of it.

alsaconf from the command line tells me that it has detected the following sound cards:

hda-intel 00:1b class 0403: 8086:27d8 (rev 01)
legacy
usb-audio
aoa (Apple)

I chose the first one, allowed alsaconf to rewrite modprobe, and it doesn't work, despite alsaconf giving me a happy completion message ("have a lot of fun!").

I also tried the usb-audio. Same diff. The speakers do work. I get sound when I'm in Mandriva, which is on another partition.

The specs on the Shuttle tell me that there is a Realtek ALC-662 card in here (Vista compatible!!).

Any suggestions?

HI,

my suggestion is to check in your Mandriva wich module is loaded for the card (in "modules.conf", "modprobe.conf" or similar file in mandriva), and add it manually to your modprobe.conf in puppy.
