Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 9 How reproducible: Fresh Install on Acer Travelmate 250 Steps to Reproduce: Fresh Install on Acer Travelmate 250 1. 2. 3. Actual results: No Sound. Expected results: Sound. Additional info: Tried many ideas found on web.
Changing component to pulseaudio at that will be nearer to being the right component...
Thank you. (In reply to comment #1) > Changing component to pulseaudio at that will be nearer to being the right > component...
Created attachment 310282 [details] Anacdump.txt file created when install failed. This file was created in root and was obtained by booting the server from cd-rom.
Please ignore Comment #3. I uploaded to wrong bug.
As a test I tried Ubuntu Desktop 8 and the sound works after the install. So it looks like the Fedora Kernel does not have drivers or modules to handle the Acer Travelmate 250 soundcard.
What exactly doesn't work? Do the applications fail or do just hear nothing?
Hi Lennart, The application does not fail. I did a sound test from within the GUI sound system settings. Just no sound from speaker at all. I also have dual boot WinXP partition and the sound works fine. I also tried Ubuntu and the sound works when I did the same exact test. Looks like Fedora cannot detect the sound card or we have a driver issue. These are all fresh installs. I have not done any configurations as yet. Thanks.
Hope this helps. /usr/bin/pulseaudio [WARN 3508] polkit-session.c:144:polkit_session_set_uid(): session != NULL Not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace E: polkit.c: Cannot set UID on session object.

Hello, Any status? Thanks.
Hmm? Have you been starting PA in this dump as root? It is supposed to be started as normal user, from a normal session. Please run "pulseaudio -k" and then "pulseaudio -vv" in a terminal and paste the output.

Good Evening Gentlemen, What do you suggest I do? Thanks.
The output you posted shows that everything is being initialized correctly. Which probaly means that your mixer is just badly set up. Please run "alsamixer -c0" in a terminal and play around with the settings.
Closing, due to no response.
