Trying to breath new life into an old laptop I installed Lubuntu 16.04 and all seems to be fine with the exception of the sound. I've researched the problem on the forums and have tried several things, including making sure that sound was not unintentionally muted, and that volume control (thumb wheel) is turned to maximum.
My level of tech savvy is not all that high as the last I delved into electronics I was having to be careful not to burn myself on a hot vacuum tube. That being said I did dabble in command line stuff in the old DOS days ... just trying to ask for a break if anyone responds with "just do this" without rather detailed directions.
Sound card is ATI IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller
Appreciate any assistance.
