I'm currently using kernel 2.6.5 and i emerged alsa-lib, alsa-tools, alsa-oss and i didn't emerge alsa-driver because they are compiled into the kernel.
My /etc/modules.d/alsa configuration file is this:
Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file. # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsa-utils/files/alsa-modules.conf-rc,v 1.1 2003/08/05 21:07:55 johnm Exp $
# ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore
## ## IMPORTANT: ## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s) ## and then run `update-modules' command. ## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info. ## ## ALSA portion ## alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave ## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371 ## OSS/Free portion ## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 ## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 ##
## and then run `modules-update' command. ## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info. ## ## ALSA portion ##alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 ## alias snd-card-2 snd-ens1370 ## OSS/Free portion alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 ## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 ## alias sound-slot-2 snd-card-2 ##
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss ##alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
# Set this to the correct number of cards. options snd cards_limit=1
I think there is no problem with this configuration file.
The problem begins when i execute "amixer" because the output that it gives me is:
bash-2.05b$ amixer amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device bash-2.05b$ alsamixer
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
the first thing i did when i saw this, was to check if the devices existed and if I had the right permissions, and everything was correct.
The other problem is when I run alsaconf, because it gives me an error:
bash-2.05b# alsaconf /usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 33: [: too many arguments /usr/sbin/alsaconf: line 35: [: too many arguments which: no dialog in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin) which: no whiptail in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin) Error, dialog or whiptail not found.
Also, when i restart the alsasound "etc/init.d/alsasound restart" i got this message:
bash-2.05b# /etc/init.d/alsasound restart * WARNING: you are stopping a boot service. * Unloading ALSA... * Storing ALSA Mixer Levels /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1061: No soundcards found... * Unloading modules [ ok ] * Loading ALSA drivers... * Using ALSA OSS emulation * Loading: snd-seq-oss * Loading: snd-mixer-oss * Loading: snd-pcm-oss * Running card-dependent scripts * Restoring Mixer Levels
Apperently my system doesn't detect any cards in it.
Finally, i did
cat file.wav > /dev/dsp And i heared the sound, so i think the devices files are correct.
Please, if anyone have anything to commenct, please reply.
Many thanks in advance.
Guillem
