This may be a sily question, but I just compiled that latest version of
Alsa drivers for my system and I'd like to load them and test them out.
The problem I have is that I've already got alsa drivers installed (as
return by lsmod). So when I try to unload those modules I get a Seg
Fault error:
> sudo modprobe -r snd_azx
sh: line1: 7204 Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null
2>&1
Am I missing something here? What are the proper steps to unload a
module, and then load in a new version of the module?
This doesn't seem to be covered in any documentation. Most of what I can
find just talks about loading in new modules fro the first time. Don't I
have to unload the old one first?
The system is Redhat - linux 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
The sound modules I want to unload are: snd_azx, snd_pcm_oss,
snd_mixer_oss, snd_pcm, snd_timer, snd, snd_page_alloc So I can replace
them with the newwly compiled modules.
Actually, it looks like snd_azx is no longer loaded.... Still I'm a bit
confused about the error message. modprobe is not a shell script.
Ok, I think the error must be because its trying to run my newwly
compiled version of alsactl. Guess I should have either not installed
the new stuff, or unloaded the older modules first... Wish there was
more documentation on this stuff...
