Bug#399342: alsa-base: no (or horrible) sound with Ali M5455 AC'97

2006-11-19 Thread Alexandre Pineau
Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.13-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

After an upgrade to the last version of alsa / kernel, I have no sound 
(or more exactly horrible sound after the use of alsa-config).

result of lspci :
00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5455 PCI AC-Link 
Controller Audio Device (rev 20)

result of dsmeg :
AC'97 1 does not respond - RESET

Unable to initialize codec #1

Many thanks for your help.

Best regards,

(The sound works perfectly before the upgrade, that's why I have choose 
to say that it is a grave bug. You can lower the severity if you want)

I think also that it is the best solution for now. Upstream is aware of the
issues on 64-bit architecture. I will try to work on it with him in the futur.

Yes, you are right. Liquidwar-server should replace liquidwar (<5.6.2-2). I 
hope I will be able to correct his bug for next week.

Bug#317493: liquidwar: makes awful noise on start and crashes on exit

2005-09-15 Thread Alexandre Pineau
Hello,

If you have the time, can you try the last version of the package (5.6.2-2) 
to see if the default is still present (I have no AMD64)?
Can you send the result of  ' ldd /usr/games/liquidwar '?

Regards.

Alexandre PIneau

Why this file does'nt exist? Very strange.  At home (on i386), If I remove this 
file, 
it is created again by liquidwar! Can you try again and check for the 
configuration 
file?

In any case, I send you a configuration file so you can try liquidwar with the 
configuration file. Just rename it in .liquidwarrc.

So it's not that.

Does the game fail on exit systematically?
I have reproduced some fails on exit but of course now all works perfectly. I
cannot reproduce it now!
Can you try liquidwar without sound? (liquidwar -silent) 
Without full screen option? (FULLSCREEN = 0 in .liquidwarrc)
Can you search in /var/log/messages for error messages related to sound card 
(or other)?

    Hope this will help.

Regards.

I suspect two different things to explain your issue.

First, a corrupted liquidwarrc file. Can you send it to me?

Second, a "strange" behaviour when you have liballegro4.1 and liballegro4a 
installed on the same machine. Indeed, I have reproduced a similar issue with
liballegro4.1 installed, an everything works well if there is only allegro4a 
installed.
Can you try to remove liballegro4.1 (I'm near sure that this package is 
installed
on your machine)
 
Best regards.

Alexandre
