Two things:
a) not related: make sure to install mesa 10.1.3 from the Ubuntu updates repository
b) provide aplay -L and aplay -l and also amixer -c0 and amixer -c1
a) yes - hopefully. post apt-cache policy mesa-common-dev after you did sudo apt-get update
b)
alsamixer -c1
unmute your master volume, please.

a) That seemed to do the trick

b) Thanks, I am a little embarrassed now. Didn't see that it was muted when I looked at troubleshooting sound suggestions. Working now.
Thanks again!
for the mesa part: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and you should be ready to go. If you have a bios setting for your gpu memory, make sure it is set to 512 MB
Will run that. Unfortunately my netbook does not have those bios settings.
Thanks again!
That was the "if" in my sentence :-)
Good luck.
I cannot support suspend issues. Make sure your AVR is on prior you resume the machine.
If the rest is working fine the howto has succeeded.
Hi all new here but read almost all the way through post. I am running Gotham stable version and newbie at Linux Mint (came from Windows/Xbmc) but I am getting decent with terminal sudo and all that.
Well everything seems to be running decent I just notice quite a few streams look pixilated. Is that normal or is there any fix or settings I can adjust for that? I am not going to run any of these steps unless for sure I know which ones to use.
Anyway if you can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
Wrong topic for this thread.
.... Oh BTW I have the HD 7250 in my netbook this still work?
Forgive me if I am wrong but how can this be wrong topic if I am running Linux and have Radeon card?
This thread provides a howto from scratch for radeon oss cards, based on Ubuntu 14.04 mini iso. It is not a help thread for "I did not follow the howto, installed what I want and now help me to get it working".
I was initially excited to see VDPAU and HD Audio bitstreaming were both available on ATI cards for Linux! Finally, free from the MS empire! I couldn't believe my eyes! I probably shouldn't have got so excited!
I cannot get HD Audio (TrueHD or DTS-HD) to bitstream / passthrough to the AVR with the Xorg drivers. It's completely silent. I've tried everything in the howto, including creating the pastebin files. I have a hard time admitting defeat, but after days of troubleshooting, I have to throw in the towel. My eyes are blood shot red and my carpal tunnel is setting in.

Troubleshooting:
• Everything works fine on the Windows partition. I have 7.1ch/192khz/24bit/HD bitstreaming all audio typers and DXVA accelerated video using LAV splitters. This is definitely not a hardware problem.
• I've installed the mini.iso, without a GUI. Followed all instructions from howto including EDID override and tried every setting modification in XBMC.
• I've installed the Linux Mint distro. I can get HD Audio bitstream with ATI proprietary drivers, but no VDAPU. I can verify this by pressing "o" for the onscreen menu and not seeing ff-h264-vdapu.
Thank you for all your work! You should link your PayPal address if you find the problem in the pastebins.
