Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Sound problems.
Thanks for the suggestion. After setting up ALSA (and following your suggestion that I 'unmute everything and crank the volume') I can play sounds using aplay. However, Gnome still can't play sounds. I have alsa support in my USE line in make.conf. Any ideas? - PK Lee Harr wrote: I just installed Gentoo 1.4 rc1, and I'm having trouble getting sound to work. Hi; You do not mention if you used the gentoo user docs guide to ALSA configuration. http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/docs.xml#top http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml I have the same chip (the much dreaded and imo rightly maligned) i810 and I got it to work only by following that guide word-for-word not skipping a thing and checking everything twice. Also. When you are done, make sure you unmute everything and crank the volume. Even on the channels you are sure have nothing to do with the problem :o) _ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.

I have alsa support in my USE line in make.conf. I don't know about gnome; maybe it is like KDE. You have to use kmix and unmute the Pcm setting. Even though it's unmuted for ALSA mixer, that has no effect on KDE system sounds! Maybe gnome has such a lovely feature, too. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
