 Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 1:41 pm Post subject: Udevstart does NOT create sound devices! |
 |
|
Hi - I'm pulling my hair out here.
Having uprgraded my Xbox running Gentoo after stable use for about a year, I am having problms getting Alsa to work after an emerge world, kernel recompile and reboot.
I have read other fourm threads and the Alsa guide and have followed ALL of the advice before posting here.
The solution to most udev/Alsa problems seems to be to run udevstart. However, this is NOT WORK for me - when I do an ls of /dev/sound:
| Code: |
ted ~ # ls /dev/sound/*
/dev/sound/sequencer /dev/sound/sequencer2
|
All I see is sequencer devices - no oss bits or anything. This is despite the fact that all modules are loaded fine.
| Code: |
Module Size Used by
snd_pcm_oss 38432 0
snd_mixer_oss 13440 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_seq_dummy 1156 0
snd_seq_oss 23936 0
snd_seq_midi_event 3456 1 snd_seq_oss
snd_seq 34448 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event
snd_seq_device 4364 3 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq
snd_intel8x0 19648 0
snd_ac97_codec 61824 1 snd_intel8x0
snd_pcm 57480 3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec
snd_timer 14212 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm
snd 29028 9 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore 3936 1 snd
snd_page_alloc 4612 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm

Here are the relevant package versions:
| Code: |
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] sys-fs/udev-079-r1 (-selinux) 0 kB
[ebuild R ] sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.14-r6 -bootstrap -build -static -unicode 0 kB

[ebuild R ] media-sound/alsa-headers-1.0.10 0 kB

The kernel version is the latest stable xbox-sources:
| Code: |
Linux ted 2.6.12.5-xbox #5 Wed Mar 8 08:47:13 GMT 2006 i686 Celeron (Coppermine) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
|
I'm quite happy to recreate the device nodes myself, but have no idea! Any help would be appreciated. |

scatat,
As you say, this should not be required.
Edit /etc/conf.d/rc to turn on the dev tarball if its off. This will preserve you manual /dev entries across reboots
Read to find out how to drive the mknod command.
This shows the major/minor device numbers in | Code: | ls -l /dev/snd
total 0

crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 32 Mar 8 17:00 controlC1

There is a complete list in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt
