No sound no camera

Hi folks, I've just installed q4os on an old 32 bit Acer laptop. Everything works smooth and fine except the sound and the camera which are integrated. I watched some other threads from this forum and I paste some infos hoping can be of interest. Let me know if i have to post anything else to fix this issue and thanks in advance for your attention. I'm totally new to Linux os so I'm sorry but you'll have to  explain me the bigger part of commands and so on..

Re: No sound no camera

Hi, I watched around this forum about sound issue i add some info that could be useful maybe.

I also followed some troubleshooting posted  on the forum but still no sound.

In the kmix panel on actual mixer i have no output nor input. it's just blank with no options to choose.


Doing this from terminal

inxi -SMCGx   

i get this

System:
  Host: q4os-desktop Kernel: 5.10.0-22-686-pae i686 bits: 32 compiler: gcc

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What i found on a post about disable kmix startup could be useful?

Run in terminal:
$ kwriteconfig --file "kcmartsrc" --group "Arts" --key "StartServer" "false"
$ kwriteconfig --file "knotifyrc" --group "StartProgress" --key "Arts Init" "false"
$ kwriteconfig --file "knotifyrc" --group "StartProgress" --key "Use Arts" "false"
Reboot


thank you!

Stefano

Re: No sound no camera

Hi, The latest updates have left me without audio. Taking advantage of the fact that I'm on a computer for testing although I also use it on a daily basis, I reinstalled Q4OS trinity and I'm still without audio. Has this happened to anyone?

My inxi -f
adminq@q4os-desktop:~$ inxi -f
