Kali Linux No Sound












3














I mistakenly removed The ALSA config because of this guide http://hackerzelite.blogspot.in/2014/03/fix-sound-driver-on-kali-linux.html. There is now no sound icon, as well no sound.



If I try to install the ALSA package from terminal I get the following error:



sudo apt-get install alsa-base alsa-base-udeb alsa-firmware-loaders alsa-oss 

alsa-source alsa-tools alsa-tools-gui alsa-utils alsa-utils-udeb alsamixergui

  • I don't know Kali, but since it's a Debian derivative it cannot be that different from Ubuntu. It must have been present on your installation disc, so insert it and make sure that that it is enabled in your repositories, then try again.

  • Don't you have a GUI to display your repository? It is available in sudo software-properties-gtk, if you have this or can install it. Or at a lower level you can edit the repository directly in /etc/apt/sources.list. You should find commented-out entries for your installation disc: remove the leading #.

  • The install CD is not included in the list: does sources.list have commented-out lines beginning with # deb cdrom: ...? If not, you can google kali repository alsa-base, etc. This gave me this link, which gives the .deb files you can down-load and install.

You can't get them from a repo, you have to get them from here and build it from source.
