No, I do not know why this error appears. But I'd try to remove the 
alsaconf generated section from the file (make a backup of it first if 
in doubt) and rerun ALSAconf, yes.

Alsaconf is an old and dirty script, but it still does a really good 
job.

The problem I'm currently facing is this:

camille regbackups # alsamixer

alsamixer: function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument

Are you saying that all I have to do to fix this is to
delete /etc/modules.d/alsa and re-run alsaconf?

There aren't much configs for ALSA, and alsasound only modifies 
your /etc/modules.d/alsa.

The matrix is wrong! The correct driver is hda-intel, which generates
the modules snd_hda_intel and snd_hda_codec

back up then delete the other alsa configs you have then run alsaconfig
as root.

enable oss emulation (if you want it) in /etc/conf.d/alsasound

I ran the alsaconf script.  It set up my /etc/modules.d/alsa file for
me:

camille ~ # cat /etc/modules.d/alsa
# Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file.

I've restarted /etc/init.d/alsasound.  It gives me the message about
unmuting my card, but every time I try to use alsamixer, I get this:

What's it talking about and how can I fix it?

I don't even have a /dev/dsp .  I'll emerge alsa-utils, but shouldn't I
be able to modprobe it without alsa-tools?

Double check the kernel config.  Also, when you check the kernel
config, make sure that you have it as a module, instead of being built
into the kernel itself.  This card has done some funky stuff for me.
It works, but not the way I would expect it to.  The standard test:
"cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp" works fine as the normal user, but I
don't get any of the "blips and whirrs" in my normal user account,
that I do with root.  Hopefully, YMWV.  ;-)  I think I also had to
emerge alsa-utils.  You may want to check that out.

[gentoo-user] Setting up ALSA on a new computer

2005-10-13 Thread Michael Sullivan
I'm trying to set up ALSA on my new computer. I ran lspci to find out
what sound card I had:

camille ~ # lspci -v | grep -i 'audio'
:00:1b.0 Class 0403: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6
Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 03)

Then I cross-referenced it in the ALSA Matrix.  I found (I think) that I
should be using the intel8x0 driver.  The Matrix page said that I should
modprobe snd-card-intel8x0, but when I do that it comes up missing:

camille ~ # modprobe snd-card-intel8x0
FATAL: Module snd_card_intel8x0 not found.

I'm pretty sure I have support for the module compiled into the kernel.
What should I do?
