i have tried the gentoo linux alsa guide
| Quote: |
2. Installation
Gentoo USE flags
To compile programs with ALSA-support, be sure to add alsa to your USE-variable. However, several tools don't support alsa yet, and require OSS. ALSA provides OSS-emulation if you define oss in your USE-variable before you start.
|
i did not understand this and did not do anything in that step
i have also tried
/usr/src/linux/scripts/MAKEDEV.snd
no sound again
and i have seen this is a topic here
i know that the alsa is built in my kernel but i have tried it unconciously
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" ALSA_CARDS="via82xx" emerge alsa-driver
and i think it gave an error at the end
ps: i was using topologilinux 4 and the sound just worked wih
modprobe snd-via82xx or something like that on kernel 2.4.22 i think those drivers were oss
can i use oss in kernel 2.6.3 ? i have seen them in the kernel config but said deprecetad (by alsa of course)
what should i do to fully remove alsa and add oss to my linux
ps: how can i see the card and tuner database for bttv to configure for my card and is there an automatic tools for this for gentoo like gcbttv

then i do
bash-2.05b# /etc/init.d/alsasound stop
* WARNING: you are stopping a boot service.
* Unloading ALSA...
* Storing ALSA Mixer Levels
* Unloading modules [ ok ]
bash-2.05b#
then the mouse and system works on normal speed but this time kde says the sound device can not be opened |

I had the same problem with the same sound card, kernel 2.6.1 and ALSA.
after some reading, i got it running stopping the existing ALSA, and then
| Code: | | env ALSA_CARDS='via82xx' emerge alsa-driver |
(not snd-via82xx or snd-card-via82xx)
then rebooted and everything went fine.
I've got this in /etc/modules.d/alsa
| Code: | ## ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
## OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
## |
Everything was documented in the gentoo-alsa how-to, except the ALSA_CARDS='via82xx' thing...
Hope it helps. |
