          | Hello. My soundcard is not working. Hopefully we can get it fixed. I don't know what commands to run to figure out what is wrong, but here is what my soundcard is according to alsaconf: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC '97. 
 I ran alsaconf and messed around with alsamixer. I also downloaded the **censored** as well as **censored**. Still, I cannot get mp3s to play and have no other sound.
 
 Any help would be great guys.
 
 Thanks.

          | Thanks. That post wsa very helpful. Well, it seems like my sound card was detected and I turend off the sound system, now I get this: 
 sleiva@ToshibaKan:~$ play /usr/share/sounds/startup.ogg
 
 Input Filename : /usr/share/sounds/startup.ogg
 Sample Size    : 16-bits
 Sample Encoding: Vorbis
 Channels       : 2
 Sample Rate    : 44100
 
 Time: 00:00.37 [00:01.49] of 00:01.86 ( 20.0%) Output Buffer:  16.38K
 
 So I guess it's playing. However, I hear no sound.

          | What does Code: 
cat /proc/asound/cards
say? It really looks like you have the mixer muted or a volume turned down.

          | sleiva@ToshibaKan:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [ICH6           ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH6
 Intel ICH6 with AD1981B at 0xd0180000, irq 10

 I used alsamixer as well as kmix. Nothing seems muted.

          | I have seen other users with this same ICH6 chipset having similar issues.  I do not know what the fix is nor did anyone in #kanotix at the time I asked.  Please post the output of 
 Code: 
 lsmod | grep snd

          | try turning  off the audio in the kde control center ( under sound and multimedia then sound system ) reboot and them check kmixer
 I then get a choice of the cx88 and the nvidia driver in kmixer ( i still get audio for tv viewing and mp3 playback)
 
 goodluck

 Thanks for the suggestion but I had already turned off arts in kcontrol.
