| The old 2 headed display |
Few days ago I upgraded my kernel, easy process, but my second monitor stopped working. I didn't care much and wasn't going to spend any time fixing it since I was going to order a single larger monitor anyway, so I went back to the older kernel. When I hooked up the new monitor and booted the new kernel I noticed sound wasn't working. Long Google hunt later, with no correct answers found, I noticed for the fully working kernel I had a second packaged called "kernel-modules-extra".
Sure enough, installing "kernel-modules-extra" with a version number which matched the new kernel fixed the sound problem, and likely would have fixed the the second monitor problem too.
You can test for this problem using "aplay -a", if you get a "no sound cards found" message then likely you have a kernel/driver issue which may be solved by installing the correct version of the "kernel-modules-extra" package.
