Greetings, friends,
so something went wrong with my old Debian installation and it won't
boot (dumps to emergency mode every time).
Consequently, I installed Jessie on the other hdd (that had win7), and
I'm having a couple of minor troubles:
First, I need the snd-mixer-oss module to load on boot. I can load it
manually once I'm already booted with
sudo modprobe snd-mixer-oss
, but I want it to be automatic so I don't have to do this.
googling got me two solutions, neither of which is working.
The first was to create an /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf and add a
line like this:
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
The other was to create alsa.conf in the same dir with:
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-ali5451
# module options should go here
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
Neither of these solutions seems to have made any difference.
I also looked for this module in rcconf, but it's not in there.
I'll ask about the other problem in another msg to keep two distinct
threads.
Any and all assistance appreciated in advance.
LLAP,
Tony
