no sound with kernel 2.4.2
Hi everybody, I just compiled the 2.4.2 kernel. Everything is working fine except for the sound. Under kernel 2.2.17 I had this is my /etc/modules: sound mpu401 ad1848 opl3sa2 opl3 options opl3sa2 dma=1 dma2=0 io=0x538 mpu_io=0x330 mss_io=0x530 irq=7 options opl3 io=0x388 I used gom as the mixer. When I booted the 2.4.2 kernel (witeh the same /etc/modules) and tried to play a song I got this: "Cannot open audio device. Please make sure that the audio device is properly configured." And when I try to use gom I get this: gom ERROR: Can't open mixer device special file "/dev/mixer": No such gom: device. Error help: if loading a mixer special file leads to "No such gom: device", then you most likely do have the kernel sound driver gom: not or incorrectly installed. "Permission denied" means you gom: need permissions by the local admin in the first place. gom: gom: Current channel information gom: --- gom: gom: No Name Rec Volumes Vol-0 Vol-1 Locked gom: 0.vol-1 -1 -1 -1 1 But there is a file named /dev/mixer crw-rw1 root audio 14, 0 Jul 5 2000 mixer crw-rw1 root audio 14, 16 Jul 5 2000 mixer1 crw-rw1 root audio 14, 32 Jul 5 2000 mixer2 crw-rw1 root audio 14, 48 Jul 5 2000 mixer3 lrwxrwxrwx1 root root 10 Mar 15 18:51 modem -> /dev/ttyS3 lrwxrwxrwx1 root root5 Oct 28 23:51 mouse -> psaux When I compiled the kernel I selected everything that was under "sound" to be compiled as a module. Also when I try to load these modules by hand (insmod mpu401, etc...) it doesn't give an error I have no clue why this doesn't work! When I boot the 2.2.17 kernel everything works just great. Here is what I get when I use gom under 2.2.17: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ gom -t gom: gom: Current channel information gom: --- gom: gom: No Name Rec Volumes Vol-0 Vol-1 Locked gom: 0.vol-1 2 75 75 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ BTW I'm on a Toshiba Tecra 8000 Laptop.

Try adding yourself to the audio group. I'm already a member of the audio group ! Otherwise I wouldn't be able to play music using the 2.2.17 kernel. Even root gets an error trying to run gom.
sound on a Tecra 8000
Hi, has anybody got the sound working on a Toshiba Tecra 8000 using the 2.4.2 kernel? I'm trying for more than a week to get it to work. The same configuration I used with the 2.2.17 kernel isn't working anymore. This sound card can emulate a Sound Blaster Pro, and by loading these modules I can listen to CD's but that's it. Using the OPL3-SA2 modules (like before) doesn't get me anywhere. TIA, Philipp

moving to a new laptop
Hi I'm going to move to a new laptop pretty soon. My question: Can I simply "move" all the software to the new one? (Well, except for the XConfig and other hardware stuff like sound, 3D, etc...) My biggest concern is that I have to install all the packages again that are on my laptop rigth now. What about programs that I compiled myself - do I have to compile them again? I have a lot of packages from woody and sid and I really don't feel like getting them again (I only have potato stuff on CD) - I really want to avoid that, especially because it took me a long time to configure everything. Thanks for you help! Philipp

ATI Radeon and Inspiron 4100
Hi, I'm planning on getting a Dell Inspiron 4100 but I can't find any information whether the ATI Radeon Mobility (16Mb) card is supported under Linux. I'm using unstable. Can anybody tell me whether it is supported or where I could find things like that. (All I could find were things about ATI Rage Mobility and Linux) Thanks a lot, Philipp
