Re: [newbie] FIXED - ALSA driver not running
My heartfelt thanks to Frans and Raffaele. The problem is fixed, kinda. XMMS still refuses to play mp3s or oggs properly, even those ripped by myself with Grip. Totem plays both, though, so XMMS is going to be uninstalled pronto. Shame, really, I like it better than Totem, but there you are. Totem, however, is still being rubbish with CDs. Not to worry, Grip plays them beautifully even if that's not its primary function. The problem with Grip was as easily solved as turning the volume up with alsamixer. Duh! Amlia Rodrigues singing fados. Ah, mellowness! :) Thanks guys, Germn.

[newbie] Kmix, ALSA and saving levels.
Hello, I'm fairly certain that this has been covered by this lidt, but I can't seem to find it in the archives. My card is a SoundBlaster Audigy, and I'm running Mandrake 9.1 with KDE 3.1.0. I'm also sorry that this sounds so confusing. First, I get XMMS playing. Then I start Kmix(1.90), aumix and alsamixergui. Now, adjusting either aumix or alsamixer will both change the volume, and change the displays on each others GUIs, but not Kmix'. When I change Kmix' volume, the other two immediately move to where Kmix' level is, and the volume changes to what Kmix displays (However, when I place the mouse pointer on the Kmix applet it will say Volume at x% where x is what ever the last value of Kmix was until I move the mouse wheel and change the volume that way (I love this feature by the way, very cool). This is all strange, but as I include it only as it might give a clue as to what is happening. Since I only need to use one mixer (and I love the Kmix applet), the problem occurs when I reboot. Say I logged out with the volume at 10% [by the way the 'x%,' which I get from the applet ranges from 0% to 31%, but seems corresponds to 0% to 100% on aumix]. When I reboot, the actual volume out of the speakers is 10% (and the applet says Volume at 10%), but the slider on the display is maxed out. if I attempt to lower the volume a little bit, the actual volume switches to a little bit below maxed out (even though this is 31%, it's pretty damned loud!). So, there it is. It actually is as strange as it sounds. Any suggestions as to what to do, or whom to ask? With an advance of thanks, Jim. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie-it] ALSA e KDE
Salve a tutta la ML, ho da alcuni giorni uno strano problema... Ho installato e configurato correttamente ALSA, ma quando entro in kde il volume è resettato a zero. Anche la prima volta che avevo configurato alsa mi si presentava questo problema, ma lo avevo risolto imputando un errore nel server sonoro di kde che resettava a zero i volumi dell'alsa, e togliendo l'opzione di ripristinare i volumi dal centro di controllo di kde. Qualcuno sa darmi consigli? Se servono informazioni chiedete, è molto frustante non sentire il pinguino che fa lo start up. Ciao Nicola
Re: [newbie-it] ALSA e KDE (fwd)
In un altro luogo e in un altro tempo, Nicola Interfree esclamo': Ho installato e configurato correttamente ALSA, ma quando entro in kde il volume è resettato a zero. Una volta compilati e installati i driver alsa, se ti ricordi, appare un messaggio che ti dice che il volume sara' azzerato. Con un programma tipo aumix (o anche alsamixer o amixer) regola il volume e salva le impostazioni. Poi dai alsactl store, per memorizzare le impostazioni nel file di configurazione usato da alsa. Tieni presente che all'avvio parte un apposito servizio (alsa) che, tra l'altro, esegue alsactl restore, ripristinando l'ultimo volume salvato con l'altro comando. Nel tuo caso ovviamente non fa altro che ripristinare un volume a 0 ;) Credo che il problema sia solo questo. -- L.U. #210970 L.M. #98222 S.U. #12583 K 2.4.18-puro * Slackware 8.1-rc2

Sono un po' a digiuno riguardo alla sostituzione dei moduli. Se ti va, dammi delle indicazioni passo per passo. Ho per esempio visto che ci sono vari rpm alsa mdk: lib, utils e non i driver. Cosa devo fare? Devo installare i due RPM e poi compilare a parte i driver?

Also, this confuses me and Mandrake should think |about the way |they name things, there is the Mandrake Control Center which |requires root |priveledges and there is the KDE control center which is |accessed from the |desktop control panel without having to give root password. |Which of the two |are you refering to when you indicate the Mandrake Control |Panel. Mandrake Control Panel = Mandrake Control Center = Control Panel KDE Control Panel is normally explicitly stated to differentiate it, AKA Kcontrol, etc. |Sorry for |being so dense, but I sometimes think to hard about how |something is said and |end up miss interpreting. Anyway now I am without sound at |all, so is there |a better way to start over with the sound than doing a new install? Even a new install will only get you back to where you were. Follow my directions. Set up your sound card from the MANDRAKE (Not KDE!) control Center/Panel (there is only one unless you've found something else!). Click on the SBLIVE card in the device list, then it's configure button. Don't worry about not hearing sound (as the volume levels may be way to low to hear at first!) but accept the configuration and reboot. Then do an lsmod and your list should appear like mine with a slew of new entries. Go into AuxMix and set the levels and save the mixer levels from Kcontrol. The latter sets up the Alsa-CTRL configuration files. Now in Kcontrol's MIDI section you'll see 5 entries that did not appear before. One is for the Midi/Joystick port, and the other 4 similar entries are for the EMU10K's Midi Synth which will finally work AFTER you load up a sound font. Select one. Kmidi and clicking on a Midi file from Konqueror (as well as Midi's via web pages) will now play... Etc. -JMS Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Re: [newbie] More Alsa and the Ac97
Check http://www.alsa-project.org documentation I had the same problem when I played with the drivers about a year ago .. and found the answer in a cryptic statement in the docs. Sorry - can't recall the process to get it working. I think there is some info on kwmsound that might help. On Sat, 23 Dec 2000, you wrote: Hi! I read the thread on Alsa and AC97 with interest. I also have one of the Athlon systems with the Via 82C686A sound chipsets.

Based on the advice from the thread I was able to remove the existing sound modules and modprobe the appropriate Alsa modules unfortunately I have some device problems. The Alsa Player will play wav sounds now but none of the other sound programs such as Xmms will work. None of the graphical mixers will work either.

Re: [newbie] Re: [alsa-user] alsa install problem
Hi Warren, Yes I have tried all that and still no sound for everything. I also have to turn on all the different group volumes too like amixer set Master 100 unmuteamixer set PCM 100 unmuteamixer set Aux 100 unmute etc. Some like the PC Speaker or Input Gain with the two words are not accepted with this command. I am wondering if I also need to add lines into the conf.modules like settings for mixer irq, port,dma etc? I cant hear mp3, wav,au only cds? Also, I cant find IIRC/KMIX? regards Gina - Original Message - From: "Warren Doney" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Gina" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, 13 February 2000 07:14: pm Subject: Re: [newbie] Re: [alsa-user] alsa install problem To see what modules are loaded type "lsmod". everything seems to be there, but you do not appear to have unmuted your master volume control with amixer. IIRC the normal mixer in kde (kmix) would work with alsa - try that. if that doesn't work there are alsa friendly mixers like Xamixer gamix - I think one comes with the alsa-utils that you get from alsa-project.org You seem to have quite a few modules running, some *might* conflict - so try a modprobe -r on them if you still can't get it working.

Re: [newbie] Re: [alsa-user] alsa install problem
Ooops, I forgot to say that I have to put in the commands I mentioned (amixer set Master 100 unmuteamixer set PCM 100 unmute) everytime I want sound and is there a way to automate that so its does it automatically when I log on? regards Gina
Re: [newbie] Re: [alsa-user] alsa install problem
Thanks Warren Im not sure what you mean by assuming irq etc is ok? I dont have the irq or dma setting in the conf.modules which Ive queried a number of times now and no ones replied. Thru the mini how to it shows settings for these for the various cards but not mine so I dont know what to put there. And Im having to use the alsa drivers and I dont know if perhaps its reading those specific settings from elsewhere? Some things I cant unmute from the prompt. The ones that are two words like PC Speaker. Master Mono, Input Gain. But if I just do the Master then I can get into the mixer and unmute the others. The sound is definately coming out of my 4 amplified speakers. The sound is great! :) I've unmuted Master. I have to do that to get the mixer program to open off k/multimedia. I didnt think to change PCM0 AND PCM1. I'll try that. regards Gina Are you hearing cd's through your headphone jack or the speakers? IIRC= if I recall correctly kmix = little speaker icon on takbar or mixer in menu/multimedia the output of amixer shows you have unmuted some things but not your master volume, so I assume irq etc is okay. there are usually 2 pcm's PCM0 PCM1. I had to unmute PCM1 in my case.. -WBD
Re: [newbie] Re: [alsa-user] alsa install problem
Hi Warren, Thanks for the tip. But Ive had to use alsa latest v1.52 as it has the support for my i8xo chipset. this is where Im at with it. Man, after playing with this all day Im going to go have a beer and jump in the pool! (its summer here): I have managed to finally get somewhere. This is what I have managed to produce with a few questions first: I have no sound still and when I reboot I have to run modprobe snd-card-intel8x0 everytime to get the virtual directories /dev/snd and proc/asound. The system itself doesnt detect any sound devices, says none are installed yet I can get all this info from these commands below after running modprobe? The fist step in the install notes is: You must turn on sound support (soundcoremodule) ie. sound support must be compiled into the kernel. How do I know if the sound support is on and/or is compiled. If it isnt then how do I do that? dev/snd dir along with others listed has pcmC0D0c and pcmC0D0p not pcmC0D0? there are other "alias" settings in the notes that arnt in my module-conf like: optioms: snd-port snd-irq snd_dma.. How do I get this in mine? Below is the command query results for all the steps I took after running "./configure", "make" and "make install" in the three seperate directories, then "./snddevices", then "modprobe" Note that In the install notes where it says run "./snddevices"... then you should get the dirs "snd/dev" and "proc/asound" then you run "modprobe" Well, these dirs dont appear for me until AFTER I run "modprobe".
