Reboot after that...if it still doesn't work...I'm clueless for now...it's 01:07 here...waaaay past my bedtime :(

Open a terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-alsa-`uname -r`
Logout or reboot...then go to System -> Preferences -> Sound and make sure the volume slider is not muted.

This means you're not in the audio group...so you don't have access to any sound device. Your name should appear after audio:x:29:pulse
In the terminal type:
fgrep -ie 'audio' /etc/group

Try alsamixer in a terminal and see if there's anything muted.maybe PCM controls the sound level..also..what laptop model do you have?

Start by posting the laptop model, if you made sure the volume is turned up, and paste from the terminal the output of:

lspci | grep Audio

lsmod | grep snd*

It seems nobody mentioned Urban Terror(http://www.urbanterror.net/news.php). It is very similar to Counter Strike, free, extremely fast gameplay, no registering required, packed with really good...

Urban Terror is all I need and all I play...ohh...and Tetravex (comes preinstalled) :P

OK...I managed too implement >/dev/null properly now and the logging has dissapeared...I've posted the workarround here: http://forums.urbanterror.net/index.php/topic,14290.0.html

bump?

I don't see why any game-related errors should end up in .xsession-errors...anyway...here's the log, after a fresh restart.I started the game, watched a demo, exited the game and started tvtime:

Well...it wasn't slow for me till now, and the game wasn't logging anything in xsession-errors file(I check that file almost daily). I don't think it's the drivers fault...like I said I was playing...
