Hello,
I installed Debian Etch but have no sound at all.
Previous Fedora installation gave sounds so probably my Etch is missing some
setup.
Drivers looks correctly installed as 'lsmod' shows following drivers :
..
snd_hda_intel 17332 3
snd_hda_codec 137856 1 snd_hda_intel
snd_pcm_oss 38368 0
snd_mixer_oss 15200 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_pcm 68676 4 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer 20996 2 snd_pcm
..
Is there tool (ie. like system-config-sound) to setup and check sound setup ?
Thanks for any help.
Bye,
Bruno
hi bruno, beside all the good advice you received:
in my experience hda-intel gives problems when i use the built-in
kernel-modules in the 2.6.18 kernels and their predecessors.
their are several ways to circumvent this problem (see the archive of
this list).
i chose a rather radical way. i got the alsa-driver, alsa-libs and
alsa-utils from the alsa website; compiled them in /usr/src/alsa and
(the libs and utils) in my home-directory and installed them. i started
installing the driver doing as root : #./configure --with-cards=hda-intel.
since that time (rather long ago) my onboard nvidia sound chip hda-intel
works perfect.
regards,
steef
