[NTLUG:Discuss] Sound Problem

[Bobby Sanders]

Sorry for being so dumb.  Ubutu 10.04 installed on a Toshiba Sattalite
P105-S6084.

Sound has not worked since I installed Linux on this system.  I have
googled all sorts of stuff with no success.  As I was exploring the
system today, I discovered that the iBus daemon was not running.  What
does the iBus daemon do?  Should I start it?  Should I always start it
on boot?  Might it possibly solve the sound problem?

Thanks, Bobby Sanders
