Hi alsa users, As I had mentioned in my previous post. I believe that the problem is almost definitely with the missing devices in /dev/snd which I found in /dev/.static/dev/snd
Here is some information I took from running kubuntu dapper and my debian etch : ###Kubuntu dapper############################################ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/devices 22: [0- 6]: digital audio playback 30: [0- 6]: digital audio capture 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture 0: [0- 0]: ctl 33: : timer [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/pcm 00-00: ALC861 Analog : ALC861 Analog : playback 1 : capture 2 00-06: Si3054 Modem : Si3054 Modem : playback 1 : capture 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xd8600000 irq 58 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/modules 0 snd_hda_intel [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.10rc3 (Mon Nov 07 13:30:21 2005 UTC) ###Debian etch##################################################### [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/devices 16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback 24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture 0: [0- 0]: ctl 1: : sequencer 33: : timer [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/pcm 00-00: HDA Generic : HDA Generic : playback 1 : capture 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xd8600000 irq 50 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/modules 0 snd_hda_intel [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/asound$ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.10rc3 (Mon Nov 07 13:30:21 2005 UTC). ############################################################### Kubuntu has 2 extra devices 22: [0- 6]: digital audio playback and 30: [0- 6]: digital audio capture, which I assume to be pcmC0D6c abd pcmC0D6p. There is also a difference when I ran cat /proc/asound/pcm. The versions of Alsa drivers, it seems are identical. Is there a way of trying to include the missing devices in /dev/snd?? I guess that this has got to do with creating the sound devices. Can this be done simply with debian using ./snddevices. Would that solve the problem? Perhaps creating alsa from scratch would work. A similar problem seems to have happen with Thomas Krause. Any suggestions?? Peter Matthias Koenig wrote: > Peter Ho <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > >> Do you know what the latest version is?
