Hi All there seems to be no alsaconf utility so it seems manual installation.
my /etc/modutils/sound configuration is alias char-major-116 snd alias char-major-14 soundcore alias snd-card-0 snd-card-cs4236 alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 snd_device_mode=0660 snd_device_gid=29 snd_device_uid=0 options snd-card-cs4236 snd_port=0xf40 snd_cport=0xf00 snd_mpu_port=-1 snd_fm_port=0x388 snd_irq=7 snd_dma1=1 sn d_dma2=3 snd_isapnp=0 when I do a lsmod these are the modutils loaded Module Size Used by Not tainted snd-card-cs4236 5440 0 snd-mpu401-uart 2432 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-rawmidi 9984 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 3752 0 [snd-rawmidi] snd-cs4236 19936 0 [snd-card-cs4236] isa-pnp 29384 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-cs4231 18784 0 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-cs4236] snd-pcm 30880 0 [snd-cs4231] snd-mixer 24072 0 [snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231] snd-opl3 4416 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-timer 8512 0 [snd-cs4231 snd-pcm snd-opl3] snd-hwdep 3072 0 [snd-opl3] snd 32544 1 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm snd-mixer snd-opl3 snd-timer snd-hwdep] soundcore 3620 1 [snd] orinoco_cs 4392 1 orinoco 31424 0 [orinoco_cs] hermes 3616 0 [orinoco_cs orinoco] it seems I can play some wav files but not mpg3's so I do a lsmod after playing a mp3 file and this is my output Module Size Used by Not tainted snd-pcm-oss 19040 0 (autoclean) snd-pcm-plugin 14864 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss] snd-mixer-oss 4736 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss] snd-card-cs4236 5440 0 snd-mpu401-uart 2432 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-rawmidi 9984 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 3752 0 [snd-rawmidi] snd-cs4236 19936 0 [snd-card-cs4236] isa-pnp 29384 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-cs4231 18784 0 [snd-card-cs4236 snd-cs4236] snd-pcm 30880 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-pcm-plugin snd-cs4231] snd-mixer 24072 0 [snd-mixer-oss snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231] snd-opl3 4416 0 [snd-card-cs4236] snd-timer 8512 0 [snd-cs4231 snd-pcm snd-opl3] snd-hwdep 3072 0 [snd-opl3] snd 32544 1 [snd-pcm-oss snd-pcm-plugin snd-mixer-oss snd-card-cs4236 snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd-cs4236 snd-cs4231 snd-pcm snd-mixer snd-opl3 snd-timer snd-hwdep] soundcore 3620 3 [snd] orinoco_cs 4392 1 orinoco 31424 0 [orinoco_cs] hermes 3616 0 [orinoco_cs orinoco] anyone got any ideas on what I need to do to get sound working. also amixer groups output is Group 'Master Digital',0 Element 'Master Digital Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Master Digital In-SW',0,Switch1 Element 'Master Digital Out-SW',0,Switch1 Group 'Synth',0 Element 'Synth Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Synth Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'FM',0 Element 'FM Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'FM Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'PCM',0 Element 'PCM Volume',0Element 'DSP Input Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'DSP Input Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Digital Loopback',0 Element 'Digital Loopback Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Digital Loopback Switch',0,Switch2 Group 'Input Gain',0 Element 'Input Gain Volume',0,Volume1 Group 'Mono Bypass',0 Element 'Mono Bypass Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Mono',0 Element 'Mono Input Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Mono Input Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Master Mono',0 Element 'Mono Master Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Analog Loopback',0 Element 'Analog Loopback Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Line',0 Element 'Line Input Bypass Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'Line Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Line Input Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'Line Output Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'Aux',1 Element 'Aux Volume',1,Volume1 Element 'Aux Input Switch',1,Switch1 Element 'Aux Output Switch',1,Switch1 Group 'Aux',0 Element 'Aux Input Bypass Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'Aux Volume',0,Volume1 Element 'Aux Input Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'Aux Output Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'MIC',0 Element 'MIC',0,Input Element 'MIC Input Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'MIC Output Switch',0,Switch1 Element 'MIC Volume Output',0,Volume1,Volume1 Element 'PCM Switch',0,Switch1 Group 'DSP Input',0 hope to hear from someone soon Joseph ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
