Hi all
Im pulling my hair out
Not sure whats wrong
If someone can help or guide me it would be REALLY appreciated
OK - Have a Hpmicroserver was working fine with Ubuntu Server 11.10 with a Nvidia G210
Decided to install 12.04 Server from scratch and its all going wrong - 2 days wasted so far trying 11.10 and 12.04 and XBMCbuntu
Anway basically cant get sound to work
Im following most of this that somebody else has done
http://pastebin.com/KhCJdFW2 (follow until about half way down the page)
Installing the lastest drivers from nvidia in the same way
Now I remember the following should have a 1 somewhere
grep eld_valid /proc/asound/NVidia/eld*
/proc/asound/NVidia/eld#0.0:eld_valid 0
/proc/asound/NVidia/eld#1.0:eld_valid 0
/proc/asound/NVidia/eld#2.0:eld_valid 0
/proc/asound/NVidia/eld#3.0:eld_valid 0

About to reinstall all again from scratch but no idea what I can do differently
Ive tried all the option in xbmc for the sound but none seem to work
One of them gives no error in xbmc but still no sound
Can anybody help
Wish I never started messing / bit of a unix noob and forgotten most of the things I did last time
Installed alsautils and tried alsmixer to unmute everything (they all say spdif for some reason)
