I have just started using Linux (literally, a week ago) and understand VERY little about computers... Long story short, I cant find the soundcards on my Linux Mint 17.3 (despite them being installed). So I get no sound. After much digging it looks like the drivers for the two cards are not installed: (inxi output) Audio: Card-1 Intel Device a170 bus-ID: 00:1f.3 Card-2 Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] Cape Verde/Pitcairn HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 7700/7800 Series] bus-ID: 01:00.1 The driver manager shows that I have the below installed, in terms of drivers xserver-xorg-video-ati version 1:7.3.0 It seems (as per your website) that there are some issues with Radeon 7800 in terms of (I quote): - Audio over HDMI or DisplayPort - Multiple cards sharing output connectors Is there something I need to do / I can do to get sound? Can I get something from your website or do I need to wait? Could you please help me? I am really really lost and about to throw in the towel. If it is a matter of time, I can wait (ie for drivers to be there) but I really dont know what to do. My kernel version is, btw, 3.19.0-32 Many thanks in advance for ANY guidance! Judith
