Hello, I have installed ALSA from the FreshRPMs. (The kernel 2.4.20-8 version due to a V4L bug in the latest Red Hat kernel.)
I get a burst of static . . . sometimes. I get it when I jump chapters in MPlayer (shift-period) using -vo sdl. I also get it when I get a "system bell" in konsole. I /don't/ get it when I get a system bell at the console or when I play a wav file with playwave. I have everything but Main and PCM is set to "0". /proc/pci claims it is a VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 80). Strangly enough, lspci insists that it is a VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50). The module is snd-via82xx. How can I troubleshoot this? Thanks, -Peter PS: If anyone happens to know, why does "-vo oss" work with MPlayer but "-vo alsa" gives "Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound." I tried to specifie the device, but got lost in a sea of Cs and Ds and 1s and 3s (and 'p's and 'c's. Geez.) ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
