Apart from no audio over hdmi to the tv - Ubuntu 10.10 maverick worked beautifully
This fix worked for me
Gigabyte GA 73PVM-S2H
Nvidia GeForce 7100 / nForce 630i
Linux-x86_64 Ubuntu 10.10 maverick 64-bit
Kernel Linux 2.6.35-22-generic
Nvidia Driver version 260.19.06 (current recommended additional driver)
X Server version 11.0
vendor version 1.9.0
NV control version 1.24
Alsa version 1.0.23
--------------------------------------------------
Terminal commands to run:
[First]
sudo killall pulseaudio
[Second]
alsamixer
Make sure that the HDA NVidia card has been selected,
if not, press F6 and select
0 HDA NVidia
Make sure the S/PDIF's are unmuted.
Scroll right and unmute S/PDIF, S/PDIF D, S/PDIF 1
Press m to unmute and MM should change to OO
ESC to exit alsamixer
---------------------------------------------------
Next we edit the following file as su:
/etc/pulse/default.pa
use nano or vi or any other editor
eg. sudo vi /etc/pulse/default.pa
or
eg. sudo nano /etc/pulse/default.pa
Goto lines 44 & 45 and unmark and edit as follows
load-module module-alsa-sink
load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:0,3
exit and save changes
Choose the relevant HDMI output you need in Sound Preferences (System->preferences->sound)
i didn't reboot and it started working.
[If this works for you too, please leave a comment so others know it worked...thanks]
