ALSA Problem of Fedora 11 on Compaq Presario CQ35-240TX

By Zhiqiang Ma On Nov 27, 2012

When I get my new Compaq Presario CQ35-240TX, of course, the first thing is to install Fedora ;)

But unfortunately, after installation there is no sound! It seems there is something wrong with the driver configuration.

Here is a solution to this:

Add these two line at the end of /etc/modprobe.d/dist.conf

options snd-hda-intel model=hp-m4 enable=1 index=0
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
Everything goes smoothly now.

When I upgrade to Fedora 12 with kernel 2.6.32. This solution works well too.

=====================

This is the platform on Fedora 11.

The environment of my Fedora 11:

uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586 #1 SMP Sat Oct 17 11:09:52 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

rpm -qa | grep alsa alsa-tools-firmware-1.0.20-2.fc11.i586 alsa-firmware-1.0.20-1.fc11.1.noarch alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.21-2.fc11.i586 alsa-lib-devel-1.0.21-3.fc11.i586 alsa-lib-1.0.21-3.fc11.i586 alsa-utils-1.0.21-2.fc11.i586
