Yet another ALSA question ... Problems are with a maestro-2 (es1968) soundcard running on 2.4.18-ac3, ALSA compiled from source on an up-to-date Woody system.[Same problems occurred with other kernels, but I never fixed them.]
In a nutshell, the ALSA modules won't load automatically. If I use "insmod" I can insert the relevant sound modules one-by-one and ALSA works. If I use "modprobe" I can get all of the sound modules to load _except_ for "snd-card-es1968". I get the following error: lib/modules/2.4.18-ac3/alsa/snd-card-es1968.o: invalid parameter parm_snd_dac_frame_size /lib/modules/2.4.18-ac3/alsa/snd-card-es1968.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.18-ac3/alsa/snd-card-es1968.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.18-ac3/alsa/snd-card-es1968.o: insmod snd-card-es1968 failed I think this error is probably whats stopping the modules from loading automatically when I start a player, like alsaplayer. I've checked in /etc/modules.conf and everything looks fine. The parameter mentioned as being invalid is fine per the ALSA docs. I also tried it with a few different values and still no dice. Any ideas? Why would insmod work but not modprobe? Thanks. Richard __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Try FREE Yahoo!
