Hi,
I use a Toshiba Tecra 9100, running Gentoo.
Since I got it, I've been trying to install alsa without success. I always get the
following error, with any of the player I try to use:
ALSA lib pcm_params.c:2096:(snd_pcm_hw_refine_slave) Slave PCM not usable
error on snd_pcm_hw_par/ams_any
alsaplayer says:

What else do you need? Any idea of what's going on?
I've been trying to look for this error on the web without success.
Thanks a lot!
