Thank you, that did it! Now I have "lmms 0.4.5common" installed.

Hello playdayz,

Lupu-520 has been running perfectly from a live CD for months now.
Yesterday she lost her sound.
Also, sound icon gone from panel.
Cannot initiate alsamixer from menu.
Cannot initiate alsamixer from user/bin.
I did a pfix=ram. negative.
I ran alsawizard twice. negative.
I've rebooted. negative.
The only thing I've been messing with is a Puppy Screensaver in it's various forms.

Here is my machine:
Zareason Big Lap
3 gigs RAM
(see screenshot ZaReasonSummary1)

Here is how I am running lupu-520:
Live CD with pup-save files on machine's hard drive.
Ubuntu 10.04 is resident on the hard drive.

Here is screenshot of *dmesg* immediately after running Alsawizard.
Here is screenshot of Sound Card Selection that Alsawizard sees.
(I choose hda-intel)

Thank you for any suggestions you have.

The reason for the blank post earlier was url bracketing errors, and a bad link to biglap, - I edited and quote

I have successfully downloaded lupu-520 and burned a Live CD (twice) using the download from your initial post.

Both CD's have muted sound.
Both CD's have Firefox 3.6.13 installed.
How do I fix the muted sound situation?
Looks like the last post was back in 2010.
Has there been a permanent fix created since then?

Here is my machine configuration:
Zareason Big Lap

Thank you in advance of your reply

For some reason the post below did not fully post.
I found the solution to the muted sound.


I found *Retroval* by right clicking on the sound icon in the panel tray.
In *Retroval* I set the speaker volume to a higher volume.

I also ran the alsawizard and set the sound card choice to match my sound card.

Thank you, Aitch, for your response to my old post of May 2011.
I'm not sure how it relates to my current post, however.
