|
|
Hi! I'm having this error on boot of my gentoo 2004.1:
* ALSA Detected...
* Restoring Mixer Levels
/usr/sbin/alsactl: set_controls:986: snd_ctl_open error: No such file or directory
I'm currently using linux kernel 2.6.7 and udev-025-r1 (this happened with various versions of udev and linux).
I have my soundcard drivers as modules btw
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanx in advance

yeah.
i even installed ~x86 versions of both packages but it was of no good use.
my /etc/modules.d/alsa:
Code: | alias char-major-116 snd
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
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
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
options snd cards_limit=1
|
btw i use the gnome-alsamixer program to define volume levels in the gnome environment.
thanx |

yep...perfectly
i did a
Code: |
rc-update del alsasound boot
|
followed by a
Code: |
rc-update add alsasound default
|
and it seems to work now...i can't be sure cause sometimes it works normally and in the others it fails randomly... |

and now, because of the
Code: | /etc/init.d/alsasound restart |
i noted that the modules:
* snd-mixer-oss
* snd-pcm-oss
* snd-seq-oss
were being reloaded.
However my /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 only had:
* snd-intel8x0
* snd-mixer-oss
* snd-pcm-oss
Now with snd-seq-oss appended to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 , ALSA seems to be doing fine enabling volume levels on boot runlevel...let's see if it doesn't fail anymore...
thanx u all |
