I reinstalled everything again, i can live without speaker sound. After upgrading the kernal my wifi went out.
i don't think i'll be upgrading my kernal for now. my kernal is 2.6.32-24-generic up graded to 2.6.34 this did not work for me.

Hi Amir. I updated the synaptic package. I also installed alsa+pulse mixer packages, alsamixergui and pavucontrol. I downloaded everything that is from your multimedia guide still no speaker sound. There is one thing i haven't tried yet is the web cam going to do that right now.

The webcam working like it should. Didn't have to do anything but the sound nothing. No sound from the speaker only had sound when i upgraded the kernal but my wifi went out so i uninstalled the kernal to the way it was. I allready gave up trying to get the sound running. Maybe when the ultimate 2.8 comes out it'll work who knows but for now i'll just leave it like it is.
Thank's anyway :D

Hello hotrod.

It looks to me like your sound is on mute option,and you did not un mute it from the icon.
right click on the speaker icon=>sound preferences=>move the up slider to the right and click the mute check box.
Then you can just use the mouse will to up/down the sound volume.
