Hello, I own a Gigabyte GA-7N400-L1 AMD motherboard (home page at: http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/Products/Products_GA-7N400-L1.htm detailed specs at: http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/Products/Products_Spec_GA-7N400-L1.htm full manual (PDF) available from: http://www.giga-byte.com/Motherboard/Support/Manual/Manual_GA-7N400-L1.htm) According to the specs (I'm trying to dig what I suspect to be the important parts, I'm a total newbie when it comes to such level of hardware): 1. Chipset is nVidia nForce2 SPP Memory/AGP/PCI controller (PAC) 2. nVidia nForce2 MCP Integrated Peripheral Controller (PSIPC) 3. On-Board sound: 3.1 Realtek ALC650 CODEC 3.2 Line Out/2 front speaker 3.3 Line In/2 rear speaker (by s/w switch) 3.4 Mic In/center & subwoofer (by s/w switch) 3.5 SPDIF In/Out 3.6 CD In/AUC In/Game port (I'm just copying from the specs, 95% of the above doesn't make any sense to me). I tried to install alsa-source 0.9.6 on debian unstable (because that's what's available as a debian package). kernel modules compilation works fine (with "ALSA_CARDS=all" for a start) "alsa start" recognizes the sound card as requiring the intel8x00 driver.

I ran alsamixer and unmuted and raised the volume for all channels. What else can I do? Is this hardware supposed to be supported? Thanks very much, --Amos |
