After reinstalling Stretch a couple of months ago, the computer is silent. Well, not completely, because these warning beeps at end of line etc.. are coming out. Normally I have all those disabled, but for testing this is established, so I am quite sure the audio card is OK. The computer is a Hewlett Packard laptop model HP Pavilion dv4-1199eo. Inxi -A presents this information: Audio: Card Intel 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller driver: snd_hda_intel Sound: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture v: k4.9.0-6-amd64 After a reboot I can find among other things this information in /var/log/syslog: systemd[1]: Starting Save/Restore Sound Card State... and kernel: [ 14.190720] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input18 kernel: [ 14.201142] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input14 kernel: [ 14.206632] input: HDA Intel Dock Mic as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input15 kernel: [ 14.206730] input: HDA Intel Mic as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input16 kernel: [ 14.206817] input: HDA Intel Front Headphone as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1b.0/sound/card0/input17 so I think I can feel assured the system has contact with the audio card. I have removed two fields before each line containing date and computer name. After the install of stretch I did remove the Pulsaudio package and instead installed the Jack package, this recommended by the Ardour team. Ardour is a program very important for my use of the computer, so I really want that program to work fine. I have done this measure before in the jessie era, so I know it works. Trying to make a connection in the QjackCtl program fails, and I can read the following message. Line 3 and 11 is partly in Swedish, meaning that the file or directory does not exist, but no information is given about which file or which directory, so I feel a bit lost: 23:16:56.103 Statistics reset. 23:16:56.106 ALSA connection change.

So is there anyone who can give hints about what I have missed so far? Kaj
