Hey, I've been running a 2.6.5 kernel with compiled-in alsa just fine. Yesterday, however, for reasons that don't matter, I had to reinstall my machine. Although I'm using the exact same configuration, I can't get sound properly working (everything seems to work fine, I just don't hear anything).
Following FAQ007 (alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=FAQ007): * Alsa is compiled in, which I think is confirmed with "grep SND /usr/src/linux-2.6.5/.config": CONFIG_SND=y CONFIG_SND_TIMER=y CONFIG_SND_PCM=y CONFIG_SND_RAWMIDI=y CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=y CONFIG_SND_SEQ_DUMMY=y CONFIG_SND_OSSEMUL=y CONFIG_SND_MIXER_OSS=y CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS=y CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y CONFIG_SND_MPU401_UART=y CONFIG_SND_AC97_CODEC=y CONFIG_SND_INTEL8X0=y In dmesg, I find this: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.4rc2 (Tue Mar 30 08:19:30 2004 UTC). PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.5 to 64 intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 49260 usecs intel8x0: clocking to 48000 ALSA device list: #0: Intel 82801BA-ICH2 at 0xa800, irq 17 * cat /proc/asound/version: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.4rc2 (Tue Mar 30 08:19:30 2004 UTC). Compiled on Apr 18 2004 for kernel 2.6.5. * aplay /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/res/samples/test.wav: Playing WAVE '/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/res/samples/test.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 22050 Hz, Mono * alsamixer shows... Card: Intel 82801BA-ICH2 Chip: Realtek ALC650 rev 1 Item: Master ...and Master Volume is not at zero. So, clueless as I am, I'm stuck and I don't know what I could do or where to find more information as to what might be wrong. I use Debian (unstable) and have tried installing alsa-base, asking it to configure for intel8x0, but that doesn't seem to help much. When I run alsaconf, as root, nothing is found, but the output is this: modinfo: could not find module snd modinfo: could not find module snd modinfo: could not find module snd modinfo: could not find module snd-opl3sa2 modinfo: could not find module snd-cs4236 modinfo: could not find module snd-cs4232 modinfo: could not find module snd-cs4231 modinfo: could not find module snd-es18xx modinfo: could not find module snd-es1688 modinfo: could not find module snd-sb16 modinfo: could not find module snd-sb8 But I guess that's okay, since I shouldn't be using modules anyway. Could someone tell me what's going on here? I'm truly humbled by my ignorance. :-/ Greets, Tom ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
