For the last half year, I have been using Mandrake 9.0 on my Fujitsu Siemens Amilo D laptop. During that time the sound was working fine.
A few weeks ago, I did a fresh install of Mandrake 9.2. It works fine, but the sound is not working at all. Because I am a newbie, I have no idea what to do. So I hope that someone on this list can help me, please. Let me first give you some information: Sound card: Crysal CS 4299(AC97), Integrated in the VIA chipset 'VIA 82C686A at 0x1400, irq 5' Sound card mentioned in configuration centre: VT82C686 [Apollo Super AC97/Audio] Sound module in configuration centre: snd-via82xx (this is the ALSA module, I also tried the OSS module but that made no difference) In the configuration centre there are some commands mentioned for solving sound problems. I will enter them in a terminal and give you the results: $ lspcidrake -v | fgrep AUDIO snd-via82xx : VIA Technologies|VT82C686 [Apollo Super AC97/Audio] [MULTIMEDIA_AUDIO] (vendor:1106 device:3058 subv:14c0 subd:0012) $ grep sound-slot /etc/modules.conf alias sound-slot-0 snd-via82xx $ /sbin/lsmod Module Size Used by Not tainted binfmt_misc 7116 1 snd-seq-oss 32000 0 (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 6080 0 [snd-seq-oss] snd-seq 42544 2 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event] snd-pcm-oss 43652 0 snd-mixer-oss 14200 1 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-via82xx 15360 1 snd-pcm 79588 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-via82xx] snd-timer 18436 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-ac97-codec 45720 0 [snd-via82xx] snd-mpu401-uart 4704 0 [snd-via82xx] snd-rawmidi 17760 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 5832 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq snd-rawmidi] snd-page-alloc 9044 0 [snd-via82xx snd-pcm] snd 41380 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-via82xx snd-pcm snd-timer snd-ac97-codec snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] soundcore 6340 0 [snd] $ /sbin/chkconfig --list sound sound 0:uit 1:uit 2:aan 3:aan 4:aan 5:aan 6:uit (uit and aan is Dutch. uit=off, aan=on) $ /sbin/chkconfig --list alsa alsa 0:uit 1:uit 2:aan 3:aan 4:aan 5:aan 6:uit $ aumix -q vol 100, 100, P pcm 65, 65 speaker 27, 27 line 65, 65, P mic 65, 65, R cd 65, 65, P igain 27, 27 line1 65, 65, P phin 65, 65, P video 65, 65, P $ /sbin/fuser -v /dev/dsp This last command does not give any output. /dev/dsp is a link to dev/sound/dsp It has become quite a long list. I hope that there is someone out there who knows what the problem is. Thanks! Erik
