No Sound? [solved]

Ok, I was weeding out files that I didn't think I used. I was running short on space, and cleaned house. I don't know how to do that in Linux other than deleting my files, and then MCC remove files. I did this about 2 months ago, and now realized I don't have sound. I think it was a result of my house cleaning, but am not sure. I'm a causual linux user running LE2005. Anyone got any ideas on what I deleted??? Thanks in advance.

You could try running the following to see if this sorts it out for you:

 

su (supply root password when prompted)
alsaconf (follow through configuration

 

if that doesn't work, then go into Remove Software, or from the prompt type:

 

urpme alsa

 

this may provide a list of all available alsa apps to remove, remove them all, and then either go into Install Software, or from the prompt type:

 

urpmi alsa

 

hope that helps!

ianw,

 

Great!!! :thanks: That was easy. There were a few alsa's that I didn't remove because of thier dependencies, it would have removed about 50 things, many said KDE, and Gnome which scared me! I would be a fish out of water without them! Thanks.
