You have still not provided anywhere near enough information for us to |
2 |
help you. |

|
4 |
What sound device are you trying to use? Built into the motherboard? |
5 |
Plug in USB? Bluetooth? Is there any chance that sound is turned off |
6 |
in your BIOS settings? Are you sure the kernel module to drive your |
7 |
device is either built in to the kernel or as a module and loaded? |
8 |
|
9 |
Just saying "I tried and it didn't work" is not enough information. Is |
10 |
there anything about sound in dmesg or /var/log/messages? What init |
11 |
system are you using? systemd, openrc, or something else? Does that |
12 |
need any service started for sound? |
13 |

All the previous replies gave you more questions, which you have not yet |
15 |
answered. |

In terms of replying to the list or the person who sent the message to |
18 |
which you are replying, look at the "To:" field in your email software |
19 |
before you hit "Send." You need to see the list address there. Your |
20 |
email software probably has a "Reply Group" or "Reply List" button. If |
21 |
not, you may need to use "Reply All" and not just "Reply." |
