I had alsa running on RH 8 so I know it supports my hardware (ASUS P4S8X), but I'm having the hardest time getting it to run under RH 9.
I downloaded, built and installed alsa 0.9.5: alsa-driver-0.9.5 alsa-lib-0.9.5 alsa-oss-0.9.4 alsa-tools-0.9.5 alsa-utils-0.9.5 Here's my .asoundrc: pcm.intel8x0 { type hw card card0 device 0 } ctl.intel8x0 { type hw card 0 } When I run alsamixer I see Master and PCM volume controls which I unmute, but I can't adjust the volume on the PCM control. When I start xmms and select the ALSA 0.9 output plugin [libALSA.so] and use the default selection of "SIS SI7012" audio device and try to play mp3 audio I get this error: broken configuration for playback: no configuration available: Invalid argument dmesg reports this seemingly inocuous message: intel8x0: clocking to 48000 There's nothing logged in /var/log/messages. Here's my /etc/modules.conf: alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc alias usb-controller usb-ohci alias eth0 sis900 alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd alias ieee1394-controller ohci1394 # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 # module options should go here #option agpgart agp_try_unsupported=1 # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 # card #1 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 major=116 cards_limit=1 device_mode=0666 options snd-intel8x0 index=0 id="ICH" # alias usb-controller usb-ohci alias usb-controller1 ehci-hcd alias char-major-195 nvidia and the output from lsmod: soundcore 6404 5 [snd] snd-page-alloc 9844 0 [snd-intel8x0 snd-pcm] smbfs 44368 1 (autoclean) nvidia 1670784 10 (autoclean) vpnmod 194240 -1 (unused) autofs 13268 0 (autoclean) (unused) sis900 16844 1 ipt_REJECT 3992 6 (autoclean) iptable_filter 2412 1 (autoclean) ip_tables 15096 2 [ipt_REJECT iptable_filter] sg 36524 0 (autoclean) sr_mod 18136 0 (autoclean) ide-scsi 12208 0 scsi_mod 107544 3 [sg sr_mod ide-scsi] ide-cd 35712 0 cdrom 33728 0 [sr_mod ide-cd] ohci1394 20168 0 (unused) ieee1394 48780 0 [ohci1394] loop 12152 0 (autoclean) lvm-mod 64000 0 vicam 13720 0 (unused) usbvideo 27568 0 [vicam] videodev 8288 1 [vicam usbvideo] keybdev 2976 0 (unused) mousedev 5556 1 hid 22244 0 (unused) input 5856 0 [keybdev mousedev hid] ehci-hcd 20072 0 (unused) usb-ohci 21704 0 (unused) usbcore 79040 1 [vicam usbvideo hid ehci-hcd usb-ohci] ext3 70784 2 jbd 51924 2 [ext3] Anyone see anything weird ?
