this happened to me this week, funnily enough... i was just about to recompile a kernel, thinking somehow the soundcore module had been fscked up or something, then i remembered to check aumix and found that somehow the sound levels had all been set to zero upon rebooting. i'd try checking that before fooling around with anything else, just in case. which reminds me of an embarassing anecdote - i was getting ready to play a show using a toshiba laptop running debian, but when i got there my laptop was completely silent -- no error messages or anything, but no sound whatsoever. after a frantic thirty minutes of checking aumix, insmodding, checking dmesg, etc., i realized that the volume control on the front of the laptop was turned all the way down. made me look really tech savvy, that's for sure.. :) best, nick Tim Wilson wrote: >Hey everyone, > >For some reason the sound on my SuSE 8.2 box has stopped working.
