Hi alsa users,
I'm hoping someone can help me out. I've spent about the last four days doing nothing but trying to make alsa sound run on my IBM Thinkpad T20. OSS system worked pretty poorly prior to trying a couple of new sound editors, after which it didn't work at all. Rather than struggle through restoring OSS I thought I'd try alsa. I compiled and installed the 0.9.0rc3 drivers, libs, utils and oss emulation library. I removed the isapnp.h per the news listing of 8/22 (although I have a pci sound card).(config --with-debug=detect) and ran the snddevices script (even though it seemed the devices were already present I wanted to refresh them) Sorry this is so long but I've tried to include all necessary config info. On a fresh boot (about the 10000th one) I'm unmuting and trying to run xmms thus: ******************** unmute and xmms ******************************** [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ amixer set Master 63 unmute Simple mixer control 'Master',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 63 Front Left: Playback 63 [100%] [on] Front Right: Playback 63 [100%] [on] [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ amixer set 'Master Mono' 31 unmute Simple mixer control 'Master Mono',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Mono: Playback 31 [100%] [on] [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ amixer set PCM 31 unmute Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] [on] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] [on] [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ xmms& [1] 1221 [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ ** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Device or resource busy ** WARNING **: oss_open(): Failed to open audio device (/dev/dsp): Device or resource busy xmmstmpdir1bubgy [1]+ Done xmms [johnea@JOHN-ANDREWS johnea]$ **************** end of unmute and xmms ******************** None of the command line playing seems to work. I can't run aplay, or sox afile.wav -t ossdsp /dev/dsp Both just hang and don't return. Below are my /etc/modules.conf, /proc/asound/cards and an excerpt from the end of /var/log/messages. PLEASE HELP! I've been banging my head against this for days now!!! Thank You!!! John E.
