Hi, I'm trying (unsucessfully) to configure ALSA on a Fujitsu Lifebook E342, with Debian sid, kernel 2.6.14-2-686, installed. I wonder if someone could kick me to the right direction.
With OSS, I put sb in /etc/modules, and in /etc/modprobe.conf: io=0x200 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330. sb reports a ES1879 card. I tried: 1. Install linux-sound-base, dpkg-reconfigure it, choose ALSA. 2. Install alsa-utils. 3. Reboot the laptop. 4. Run alsaconf. Have it probe es18xx, es1688, sb16 and sb8. Ask it not to try all combinations. It said it found es18xx, but strangely /proc/interrupts displayed it on irq 10 (sb found it at irq 5). 5. Run alsamixer, set master level to 75%. 6. Run gxine and tried to tune to some radio station (WKCR): no sound and gxine hang. Tried other streaming sources: same mute behaviour. Just to make sure, reverted to OSS: 1. dpkg-reconfigure linux-sound-base, choose OSS. 2. Purge alsa-utils. 3. Restore sb to /etc/modules again. 4. Wasn't quite sure which modules to remove, in which order, so rebooted the laptop. 5. gxine working Ok again. I wouldn't want to bother you guys with such down-the-beaten-path (not for me) problem, but my googling wasn't enough to bring some light. Could somebody at least point me to some document where I can get leads on this problem ?
