I'm trying to get sound working on my Tecra 8100. I've followed the install instructions for ALSA, and a few pointers that I've found for this particular laptop. I have a couple of questions. Is there any way to force sound through the docking station's audio port? Even though I have the system docked, the sound still comes out the headphone port of the laptop itself. Also, the only thing that I get out of it are pops when I try to use aplay on the KDE startup .wav file. I'm running RedHat 7.1 with a custom 2.4.5 kernel with the Win4Lin patches. I'm using ALSA 0.9.0beta7. The drivers, libraries, oss, and utilities packages are installed. modules.conf: alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-card-ymfpci alias snd-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss custom lines in /etc/init.d/alsasound (which is symlinked to /etc/rc3.d/S99alsasound) /usr/bin/amixer set Master 30 unmute 2>/dev/null >/dev/null /usr/bin/amixer set PCM 20 unmute 2>/dev/null >/dev/null /usr/bin/amixer set CD 50 unmute 2>/dev/null >/dev/null modprobe snd-card-ymfpci 2>/dev/null >/dev/null modprobe snd-pcm-oss 2>/dev/null >/dev/null modprobe snd-mixer-oss 2>/dev/null >/dev/null lsmod output: Module Size Used by snd-pcm-oss 37808 0 snd-mixer-oss 9040 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-synth-opl3 9552 0 (unused) snd-seq-instr 4960 0 [snd-synth-opl3] snd-seq-midi-emul 4960 0 [snd-synth-opl3] snd-seq 39712 0 [snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq-instr snd-seq-midi-emul] snd-ainstr-fm 1584 0 [snd-synth-opl3] snd-card-ymfpci 3280 0 snd-ymfpci 36528 0 [snd-card-ymfpci] snd-pcm 47392 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-ymfpci] snd-ac97-codec 22864 0 [snd-ymfpci] snd-opl3 5712 0 [snd-synth-opl3 snd-card-ymfpci] snd-timer 9200 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm snd-opl3] snd-hwdep 3664 0 [snd-opl3] snd-mpu401-uart 2960 0 [snd-card-ymfpci] snd-rawmidi 12192 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 4000 0 [snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq snd-opl3 snd-rawmidi] snd 25600 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-synth-opl3 snd-seq-instr snd-seq snd-card-ymfpci snd-ymfpci snd-pcm snd-ac97-codec snd-opl3 snd-timer snd-hwdep snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] soundcore 3920 6 [snd] Mvnetd 9232 1 Mvnet 52744 0 [Mvnetd] Mvnetint 11212 0 [Mvnet] Mvw 4512 0 (unused) Mvmouse 676 0 (unused) Mvkbd 824 0 (unused) Mvgic 3844 0 (unused) Mvdsp 876 0 (unused) Mserial 6700 0 (unused) Mmpip 7112 0 (unused) Mmerge 131744 0 [Mvnetd Mvnet Mvnetint Mvw Mvmouse Mvkbd Mvgic Mvdsp Mserial Mmpip] Thanks for any assistance, Chad Chad Campbell System Administrator III, Sprint Midrange Support Work: (913)768-5121 Pager: (877)280-4128 Alpha page: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
