[Alsa-user] Can't Access ALSA Mixer
I can't access the ALSA mixer. I type in "alsamixer" in the alsa-utils-0.9.0rc6/alsamixer dir, but I get "alsamixer: command not found" from the Bash shell. The contents of the alsa-utils-0.9.0rc6/alsamixer dir are "alsamixer.1," "alsamixer.c," "Makefile.am," "Makefile.in," and "README." Can anyone help me with this?

About everyone can help you, but it will be better for you if we didn't. You will be happier if you find the answer to your problem yourself. Reading the man page for bash will be a good start, though it has a lot of information that might be a little hard to understand. Try to make most of it.

Did you install the utilities? Try the which command to see if it exists in a path. On Sun, 12 Jan 2003 07:50:56 -0500 "Micah Haber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I can't access the ALSA mixer.

[Alsa-user] Configuring ALSA problem [not hardware]
I have been unable to any of the utilities included in alsa-utils including amixer alsamixer aplay for the last several releases of ALSA 0.9.0X versions. Each time, I have had very similar failures. I will describe my encountered using the newly released ALSA 0.9.0rc6 version. I was able to compile and install alsa-driver and alsa-lib however I was not able to compile the complete alsa-utils. The build process did complete the building of amixer alsamixer and alsactl however the process failed while building play. The error list included at bottom of post. During previous versions of ALSA I was able to compile aplay, however I was still never able to use it. I build and installed the libraries using the buildrpm script, which worked very well. For my system only RPM controlled files are allowed in /usr/lib/ other libs belong in /usr/local/lib . For this test I loaded the snd-dummy drivers into the kernel. When I use the snd-trident drivers I get the same results. I'm using the dummy drivers to eliminate the possibility that I am running into a hardware configuration problem.

[Alsa-user] ALSA setup ... redux
Hello all, I posted an inquiry a few days ago - without response. It was about ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/cs46xx/cs46xx_lib.c:464: cs46xx: failure waiting for FIFO command to complete ALSA ../../alsa-kernel/pci/cs46xx/cs46xx_lib.c:163: AC'97 read problem (ACSTS_VSTS), codec_index 1, reg = 0x0 errors on a Debian installation. I guess that either the solution to my impasse is so embarrassingly obvious to everyone but me that delicacy forbids a response ... or that no one really knows what is going on and that I've stumbled into a genuine null area. May I request that in the first case please point things out to me in the kindergarten fashion they deserve or, in the second, please hazard either a guess or a direction for me to further search. Thanks for the attention.

[Alsa-user] Problem reporting howto/script

Re: [Alsa-user] Problem reporting howto/script
Hi Mark, There's a bug reporting script for Ardour, titled bug. It's in the Ardour CVS. I'm guessing it's worth a look and that you'd be able to save some time by modifying it. Ardour uses the GNU licenses, even so it'd probably be appropriate to ask Paul Davis about using it if you find it worth modifying. The script inventories the existence of hardware types, audio card, hard drives, and the configuration of environment. It includes 'mail to'. It's designed so the report will be entered into a database, bugzilla I think. This work hasn't been completed.
