Simply run the ''uname -r'' command in a terminal to determine the kernel being used, then run the ''sce-import'' command to install the appropriate alsa-modules extension, which should be loaded at boot. The [[http://tinycorelinux.net/dCore/x86/README/README-alsa-utils.txt|dCore sound README]] page about ALSA provides a complete walkthrough.

-  * {{ :dcore:alsamixer_with_muted_channels.png?162}}Note to newcomers, if everything is set up well but sound does not work ensure the appropriate channels are not muted. For example, run ''alsamixer'' in a terminal and ensure the volume bars are turned up and no applicable channels are muted (designated with 'MM' below volume slider). On some systems, muted 'PCM' will also turn off sound. Enlarge the Alsamixer screenshot to the right for several examples of muted sound channels.+  * {{ :dcore:alsamixer_with_muted_channels.png?162}}If everything is set up well but sound does not work ensure the appropriate channels are not muted.
