No Sound on G41 mobo
Posted: 02 Mar 2012, 20:34
I have search on this but can't find the answer (the distro looks and feels great by they way).
I am prety new to Linux and can't get the sound to work (playing videos in Firefox etc) on my Mobo. I had a similar problem on Puppy Linux so think it must be the board/driver issue. My board is a Gibabyte GA-G41MT-D3 which uses the Realtek ALC888B codec apparently.
link to board http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=3476#dl
I plug the speakers into the green output at the back (it works OK on Windows 7).
Any ideas what I should do? Many thanks

Sorry, should have said, I am using the 64 bit version of Porteus (downloaded today).
