"Sound protocol is not compatible" is the error generated when an application compiled with libasound.so.2, from alsa-0.9, tries to talk to an alsa-0.5 vintage driver. This can happen quite easily since the location of the alsa modules moved and the naming conventions of the modules also changed. The location change is a problem because the alsa-0.9 driver install may not clean out the old alsa-0.5 modules. The naming change is a problem because modules.conf may still be forcing an alsa-0.5 sound driver to load. Look in /lib/modules for your system and see if you can find more than one directory of alsa sound modules. One place they've installed is misc/, another is kernel/sound/. They'll be named snd-*.o where ever they installed. Clean out the older ones. Check your /etc/module.conf, if it refers to any snd-card-*, where * is a hardware name and not a digit, then it's not using the most recent naming conventions. See the alsa-drivers/INSTALL document. -- rec -- _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
