Acer Aspire 6935G - sound - F11

[Designer88]

I just installed Fedora 11 x86_64 (KDE) on my notebook Acer Aspire 6935G but sound is not working. I read some forums and discussions but their tutorials were without any effect. I am unable also to install alsa-driver.

Is there any possibility how to get the sound working?

Thank you for your help

Also installed FC11 on my brand new 6935g.
Sound didnt start as installed
I found on another forum the solution

as root superuser :

in directory /etc/modprobe.d
create a file named alsa-base.conf
containing the following 2 lines :
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=auto


i didnt test the complete sound system yet
but now many functions work

Thank you for the solution, now the sound works.

But I think this is a temporary solution. Because Fedora (Red Hat) wanted to quit with alsa and the sound is only working through alsa-base. And also I have 5.1 sound card support and 5.1 sound system so I want to use my equipment in full power. If Fedora, or someone else should help to solve this sound problems with Acer Aspire 6935G and sound on Fedora, which lasts for a long time...

And the solution mentioned above - there doesn't function increase and decrease volume. Completely KMix is not working in a normal way...

But it only fixes sound at the front speakers. I still don't know how to get all my speakers working with surround sound on an acer 8930. I already googled around but didn't find anything helping me out.
I have spent so much time finding a real solution that I'm starting to get really frustrated

had to write a new one cause F11 is a bit different
