Re: [gentoo-user] ALSA / sound not working
I have a very similar board: 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Unknown device 8174 Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 22 I/O ports at ec00 [size=256] Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2 ALSA device list: #0: VIA 8237 with ALC850 at 0xec00, irq 22 and the 8233/8235 driver works just fine. I have no idea why yours wouldn't though; this bit of info is about all I can help with. I can send you my config.gz if you wish. -Roman New install of amd64 with multilib on an Asus K8V Deluxe mobo. Trying to get sound working. The kernel shows a VIA 82C686A/B, 8233/8235 AC97 Controller driver. dmesg shows: ALSA device list: #0: VIA 8237 with AD1980 at 0xc800, irq 22 Does the 8233/8235 driver work with the 8237? Is there a different driver for the 8237? This seems to be the only one listed in the kernel. I have it and ALSA compiled into the kernel, but no sound. alsaconf fails with no sound card found. KDE control center sound module says it's unable to start the sound server. cat /proc/asound/cards shows the same info as dmesg: 0 [V8237 ]: VIA8237 - VIA 8237 VIA 8237 with AD1980 at 0xc800, irq 22 lspci -v gives a few more details: 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. A7V600/K8V Deluxe motherboard (ADI AD1980 codec [SoundMAX]) Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 22 I/O ports at c800 [size=256] Capabilities: [c0] Power Management version 2 Any hints or ideas? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

The snd_via82xx driver work fine with the 8237. I've just moved a system from a board with an 8233 to an 8237 and it worked as before, with no changes needed. -- Neil Bothwick This project is so important, we can't let things that are more important interfere with it. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
