build-essential is installed as well as kernel headers for:

linux-headers-2.6.31-14-generic-pae is already the newest version.

Any ideas?

-------------Edit------------------

It actually is already installed, I just needed to un-mute it because the ATI HDMI driver took precedence.

I have the same problem. No sound

I have sound for some reason, but line-in doesn't work. Glad everyone else is having fun with their new OS while we sit here struggling to get our sound working.

[mab1376]

Yeah mine is working fine, it was just muted by default because i have 2 audio devices, I un-muted it and it works fine, didn't test line in yet.

My solution may not work for all. But I ended up giving up on my X-Fi working under any version of Linux. I'm multi booted. I installed my old Sound Blaster Live. Now I have two sounds cards running on my system. The Linux uses the SB Live, while Vista runs the X-Fi. Works perfectly because Vista doesn't see the SB Live and Linux doesn't see the X-Fi. Also, I run 64 bit versions of both.

Your X-Fi should/may work on 9.10 after installing the

linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic

and rebooting.
