Re: [gentoo-user] Setting up ALSA on a new computer
Where are the other alsa configs located? I've unmerged and re-emerged alsa-utils several times and I cannot seem to fix this problem on my own... There aren't much configs for ALSA, and alsasound only modifies your /etc/modules.d/alsa. Best regards ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

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. Best regards ce »Wer Visionen hat, sollte zum Arzt gehen« (Helmut Schmidt) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
