Re: [Alsa-user] problem installing alsa-1.0.14 on Debian etch

(It didn't comment on 1.0.13.) So I thought I'd try to bring up 1.0.14. To preserve the Debian package management, I used checkinstall. I needed the 1.0.14 version too but I only installed the alsa-base package from experimental [1] and compiled the alsa-lib package from alsa-project.org. I did not create a Debian package from alsa-lib but installed it with make. This worked for me. [1] http://packages.debian.org/experimental/sound/alsa-base 1.0.14 isn't available from Debian yet. So I tried to install alsa-driver, alsa-lib, and alsa-utils, all the newest versions (1.0.14rc2) from alsa-project.org. The first two compiled successfully but gave conflicts when I tested their installation. When I ran for alsa-driver checkinstall -D make install-modules I got the following conflict: trying to ovewrite `/lib/modules/2.6.18-3-686/modules.isapnpmap, which \ is also in package linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 When I ran for alsa-lib checkinstall -D make install I got the following conflict: trying to ovewrite `/usr/bin/nm`, which is also in package binutils alsa-utils wouldn't compile because it needs the newer alsa-lib. I'd appreciate any advice on where to go from here. I don't know what might get screwed up if I overwrite modules.isapnpmap or /usr/bin/nm. I'm also not even certain that updating alsa would fix the sound problem. If necessary, I could just live without sound until 1.0.14 makes it to etch. Thanks. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

But I am just hoping that the new packages overwrite the right files. ;-) Maybe there is something like a make uninstall option in the sources. Anyway, I do have sound now. Thanks, Benjamin. I think this was not an optimal solution. Anyway, you're welcome! Regards, Benjamin - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
