I'm trying to get sound to work (most of my computers are used as servers, so it's usually not something I worry about).
I'm running Wheezy on a SuperMicro 5036T-T box. > root@sbox:~# lspci | egrep -i audio > 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio > Controller > 03:00.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Cedar HDMI Audio > [Radeon HD 5400/6300 Series] As best I can tell, that Intel chip is a valid sound chip for Wheezy, and this is the machine where I did a netinstall. > root@sbox:~# alsamixer > ALSA lib dlmisc.c:254:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library > /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so > cannot open mixer: No such device or address Going down that series of directories with 'ls <tab>', I don't seem to have alsa-lib. I looked on the web, and all I could find was source code for it. I doubt that compiling the code is required for such a (seemingly) common library. 'find / -iname "*alsa-lib*"' shows nothing anywhere. I have a number of alsa-looking things installed. But, according to Aptitude, alsa-lib isn't in any of them: > root@sbox:~# ls /var/cache/apt/archives/ | egrep -i alsa > alsa-base_1.0.25+3~deb7u1_all.deb > alsamixergui_0.9.0rc2-1-9.1_amd64.deb > alsa-utils_1.0.25-4_amd64.deb > gstreamer0.10-alsa_0.10.36-1.1_amd64.deb Any thought or solutions? Like which package alsa-lib is in, or why it wasn't installed when I did the original install? -- Glenn English
