oss4-dkms (no audio) issue after lucid upgrade

[misaelrod]

Hi all,

I am running a 64-bit version of lucid that I just upgraded the other day. At first everything was working fine, but after some upgrades (don't remember which ones) I get an oss4-dkms error and I have no audio.

I have tried a bunch of things that I found online, but nothing has seemed to work and at this time I am a little lost with this issue and would love some help.

Following is some information that will give you a few more clues

misaelrod@misaelrod-laptop:~$ ossinfo
No /dev/mixer device available in your system.
Perhaps Open Sound System is not installed or running.

misaelrod@misaelrod-laptop:~$ lspci | grep Audio
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)

Thanks in advance for the help

I ended up reinstalling Ubuntu

[Bloemetjesgordijn]

well I just reinstalled KUbuntu last week. With all the applications and setting it is quite an effort.

I am hoping for a better solution.

I'm having the same problem, I solved the no sound issue by reinstalling ALSA but I'm worried upgrades will do this again.

[lkjoel]

Check Fix your Sound! in my sig.
It will install OSS 4.x (the latest development release) for you.

I found an alternative solution here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...53#post9606953

I just took out almost all of the oss components that weren't essential for me and then reinstalled alsa.

I'll look at your solution though, thanks!
