On the advice of a member of my local LUG I commented out the "model" parameter from /etc/modules.d/alsa.
Now when I modprobe snd-ali5451 there is a different error: From dmesg: [ 60.188884] ALI 5451: probe of 0000:00:08.0 failed with error -16 I'm assuming this is a kernel error rather than one defined by the module since I couldn't find reference to such an error on the ALSA website's description of the module. Also I haven't found anything to indicate what this error code means. The module now shows up in lsmod but alsa still detects no cards, creates no mixers. -- no sound in Hardy with ali5451 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222469 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
