Re: [Cooker] Switching between OSS and Alsa
I just performed a new install on my notebook again - and it still sets
the wrong entry in the /etc/modules/conf file.
You're suggestion from below works like a charm!! My question is, WHT
the snd-intel8x0 instead of the CS46xx?
The notebook is a Gateway 9150LX.
Could you please remove the above snd-cs46xx snd-pcm-oss entry from
the /etc/modules/conf file and add the suggested lines from below for
this chiptset as default for new installs?
Thx,

ug! we default to alsa on this card (snd-cs46xx) but on your box, the
oss module is loaded !
you probably haven't made an install recently, only urpmi-ed your
systel.
with live_update from the cooker root, you can rewrite your config
file until i do something for sound cards in harddrake.
faster way:
- comment the cs46xx module in your /etc/modules{,.conf},
- add alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0 to /etc/modules.conf
- enable both sound and alsa services
- reboot to prevent cs46xx to hang on rmmod-ing
and voila
i should really write draksound

I am still using OSS just because it supports the 4-channels, and that makes a big difference; but I have to remove and reload the modules every now and then (like once every two days) because the sound gets corrupted.

Having a choice of switching between OSS and ALSA would be great. I second this. I am having a lot of trouble tring to switch to alsa. I have a hardware AC3 decoder, and using the alsa drivers is the only way to output the sound of my dvd player through my sound card.
