Re: Re: Trouble setting up ALSA on Asus K8U-X motherboard
I'm also using an Asus K8U-X motherboard and am not having luck getting any sound to work. I must admit that I'm new to Linux and am not quite sure of what I'm doing. I see the same results as Eduardo did: the sound card is identified: :00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 20) The Intel 8x0 module is loaded: snd_intel8x0 29724 0 snd_ac97_codec 86560 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus4096 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm77700 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 22532 1 snd_pcm snd48612 4 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 9824 1 snd snd_page_alloc 10376 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm But no soundcards are found. I guess I'm not quite sure of what to do with the buggy_semaphore=1 fix. I enter modprobe snd_intel8x0 buggy_semaphore=1 and don't get any feedback from modprobe (should I?) and no soundcards are still found. I enter it, then try rerunning alsaconf, with the same result of no soundcard. I'm not sure of what else to do. Can anybody help? Dan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.danandsherree.com

In the case of Debian (don't know for other distributions), edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/sound so that the line containing options snd-intel8x0 index=0 becomes options snd-intel8x0 index=0 buggy_semaphore=1 -- Envy is a pain of mind that successful men cause their neighbors. -- Onasander Eduardo M KALINOWSKI [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://move.to/hpkb -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Looks like the ALi chip has a buggy semaphore. modprobe snd_intel8x0 buggy_semaphore=1 Yes, that works. Thanks for the solution. -- I am dyslexic of Borg. Prepare to have your ass laminated.

Trouble setting up ALSA on Asus K8U-X motherboard
I have an AMD64 system on an Asus K8U-X motherboard. However, I haven't had success using ALSA and I have no sound at the moment. The sound card is identified this way: # lspci | grep audio :00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5455 PCI AC-Link Controller Audio Device (rev 20) alsaconf, however, properly identifies that this card should use the snd-intel8x0 module. A look at the Sound Card Matrix at the ALSA page shows that this module is indeed the one for this card. However, when the module is loaded, these messages are printed: ACPI: PCI Interrupt :00:04.0[A] - GSI 18 (level, low) - IRQ 22 AC'97 0 does not respond - RESET ACPI: PCI interrupt for device :00:04.0 disabled Intel PCH: probe of :00:04.0 failed with error -13 The module does load, as you can see: # lsmod | grep snd snd_intel8x0 34216 0 snd_ac97_codec101244 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus2880 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss51424 0 snd_mixer_oss 17472 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm90252 3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 24008 1 snd_pcm snd57984 6 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 10720 1 snd snd_page_alloc 11344 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm But not soundcards are identified: # cat /proc/asound/cards --- no soundcards --- And running alsamixer produces # alsamixer alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device kernel is Linux elrond 2.6.15-1-amd64-k8 #2 Thu Feb 23 04:54:57 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux Previously (in kernel 2.6.13.4) I could use sound through OSS, but now not even that works. (I suspect it's an issue with udev, which I didn't use before.) Does anybody have any hints? -- What a COINCIDENCE! I'm an authorized SNOOTS OF THE STARS dealer!!
