Re: [orca-list] how to check if ubuntu 12.04 has detected your sound card with the gui?

[Julien Claassen <julien mail upb de>]

Hi Trahern!
  Again not sure with the gui, but, whereever you can read a file, you can 
look at:
/proc/asound/cards
  It's a simple list of cards. If you see anything in there, there's a 
soundcard detected.
  You can also just try to open a mixer (alsamixergui). But not knowing, how 
this is organised, I'd suggested the ncurses (text-based) alsamixer. It's 
semi-graphical, in that it displays vertical bars - but also prints 
percentages of volumes underneath. Easily navigated with cursor right/left for 
movement from element to element and cursor up/down for changing settings 
(mostly voume).
  If a mixer opens and displays a card and the sliders, then everything should 
be OK.
  Warmly yours
         Julien
