 Posted: Fri Mar 24, 2006 8:57 am Post subject: ALSA not working |
 |
|
Hello folks,
I'd like to preface this by saying that I have used the search button and have read several threads, all saying something different, and am completely lost.
The situation is thus:
I have an Acer Aspire 3003LC laptop with a SiS AC97 card.
Following the instructions from another thread I built the driver for the card into the kernel - to no avail.
I am using genkernel and alsa was compiled in.
I did an emerge alsa-utils
When I run alsa mixer:
| Quote: |
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
|
and ls /dev/dsp returns:
| Quote: |
edapont jon # ls /dev/dsp
/dev/dsp
|
And now I really am stuck.
If anybody knows how to do this I'd really appreciate the help! Been trying to get this working for about 2 weeks.
Thanks in advance
Jonathan |

jonathanhaddock,
Welcome to gentoo. Your /dev/dsp is not a real device file, its a symbolic link to /dev/sound/dsp, which may or may not be present.
This is an excellent ALSA guide to which I would only add, try kernel ALSA in place of | Code: | | emerge alsa-drivers alsa-oss |
otherwise the guide is good.
Please post the output of | Code: | lspci
ls -l /dev/snd
ls -l /dev/sound
ru-update -s | grep alsa |
so we can see where you have got to.

Did you install the correct sound module in the kernel? I have the same laptop and havent had any problems.
As jonathanhaddock stated more info will be needed. |

Thanks for the welcome
when I emerge:

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "alsa-drivers".

If anybody knows about that invalid atom problem that could be useful to sort out too...

first it's
| Code: | | emerge alsa alsa-driver alsa-tools alsa-utils alsa-oss |
then
| Code: | | modprobe snd_intel8x0 |
next
show what the output of alsaconf is (use the shit + pgup) |

Hey, I can't be of much help here cause I'm having problem with my sound too, but I can answer your problem "emerge alsa-drivers" not working. It should be "emerge alsa-driver" without the "s" on the end. |

I'm not trying to take over you're thread here, but it looks as someone here may know what he is doing AND be able to help out. So far my other post hasn't got any replies...
So I have alsa-driver and alsa-oss installed. Using alsamixer, I unmuted my sound, etc. and it is working. When I have my headset on if I turn my mic volume up high enough I can hear myself though my headset. When I IM someone with GAIM, it does give the little message beep. However when I try to play UT2004 I get the following message:
| Code: | dneufeld@peterbilt ~ $ ut2004
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: Permission denied
|
And I have added myself to the audio group. Thanks in advance.
I know I'm not supposed to run games, etc. as root but here's what happens when I do try to run UT2004 as root:
| Code: | peterbilt dneufeld # /opt/ut2004/ut2004
ioctl SETFRAGMENT grab: Inappropriate ioctl for device
ioctl SETFRAGMENT: Inappropriate ioctl for device
WARNING: ALC_EXT_capture is subject to change!
ut2004-bin: arch/linux/lin_dsp.c:567: native_blitbuffer: Assertion `0' failed.
Signal: SIGIOT [iot trap]
Aborting.
|
And THEN (sorry to keep adding) after I reboot and try UT2004 again, I get the following message:
| Code: | dneufeld@peterbilt ~ $ ut2004
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directory
|
And the same then when I try it in root now:
| Code: | peterbilt dneufeld # /opt/ut2004/ut2004
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such file or directory
|

give the results of
dmesg
lspci
are you running KDE, Gnome or another DE?
Also I only had good results running UT from the install cd and not emergeing it. The cd installs it to a different folder then emerge does for what ever reason. That really doesent have anything to do with it, but im sure thier are other things that the cd installer does. |

Here is the big prob
| Code: | | Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value |
Sound Blaster refuses to release any info about thier sound cards which hinders alsa programmers to make it compatible, at best I would suggest using the onboard sound, but I do know people that have got it to work (with out cool advanced features) by using generic sound blaster properties. Enable Sounb Blaster moduels in kernel and add them to you module.autoload file under you kernel version.
Once you have it you can choose that card in gnome under multimedia. |

| Not ALL SB cards, exspecially the higher end ones like yours. The Audigy's have features that alsa can't utilize and are not very well supported at all. |

Hello all,
@J3N7iL
Right well I tried that and the emerge of alsa succeeded.
I then tried emerge alsa-driver.
Was told I couldn't do that against unprepared sources and to:
| Code: |
cd /usr/linux
make oldconfig
make modules_prepare
|
Which I dutifully did.
I did another emerge alsa-driver
| Quote: |
*** NO PREDEFINED KERNEL COMPILER IS DETECTED
*** Assuming the same compiler is used with the current system compiler.
*** Please make sure that the same compiler version was used for building kernel.
checking for built-in ALSA... "yes"

!!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:

!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.
|
which failed. Also, upon trying genkernal --menuconfig all I wasn't able to do that. Now I can't even recompile my kernel (I only wanted to remove alsa as instructed and make the sound driver a module again).

Why is this so difficult? I followed the instructions in the gentoo wiki, instructions from another thread and instructions from this thread and so far I reccon I'm only destroying my system...
Does anybody know the cure for this or do I now need to do a complete system rebuild in order to stand any hope of success?
Thanks for your help...

GOT IT WORKING!
Ok so I got everything working by following some mixed instructions. Here's what I did:
First: Here's a post I found on the Gentoo forum with someone having similar problems. Someone suggested to do the following:
| Quote: | 1. Use the alsa-driver ebuild instead of the alsa drivers in the kernel. Unmerge alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-oss and any other alsa stuff you have.
2. Before you emerge alsa-driver, configure your kernel as per the instructions on the alsa guide using the method for alsa-driver users i.e. JUST sound support and nothing else. Then remove your kernel modules directory /lib/modules/whatever-your-kernel-is, rebuild your kernel and install it (make clean, make && make modules install, copythe bzImage file to /boot or however you choose to e.g. link it for your boot loader).
3. Clean up /etc/modules.d/alsa. Well, just delete it, to be honest.
4. Reboot with your new clean kernel. You'll probably want OSS emulation, so before emerge'ing alsa-driver, check your USE flags contain both alsa and oss flags. The alsa-driver ebuild will pick up on this. Emerge alsa-driver.
You should pretty much be back on track with the alsa guide now, just emerge alsa-utils (should pull in alsa-lib), and alsa-oss as well. Then run alsaconf again. Run alsamixer afterwards. Add alsasound to the boot runlevel (not default). Reboot. |
Follow the instructions step by step. First, make sure the ONLY sound driver enabled in you're kernel is Sound Card Support. Make sure it is built in and not a module. Don't enable ALSA, don't enable OSS. Next: Remove any alsa-related items: emerge --unmerge alsa-drive alsa-utils alsa-oss alsa-lib. Then: remove the kernel modules directory: rm -rf /lib/modules/<kernel version>/* Then: Rebuild you're kernel. Make sure you're in /usr/src/linux. Run make clean first, then run make && make mdules install. Then copy the bzImage to you're boot partition so grub will recognize it: cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/gentoo-blahblah. I run Gentoo AMD64 so in my case it was x86_64, and to get the gentoo-blahblah I just typed gentoo then hit tab and it finished it out for me. Then like he says clean out /etc/modules.d/alsa. There may not be anything there. Run rm -rf /etc/modules.d/alsa. Finally reboot.
The next thing (which I think played a big part in the fact that everything worked) was to edit my USE variables in my make.conf file and make sure that alsa AND oss were included on the line. Then emerge you're drivers. Run emerge alsa-driver alsa-lib alsa-utils alsa-oss. Then add it to the default runlevel with rc-update add alsasound boot. Reboot one last time and everything *should* work. Good luck. |

@Diesel_Fuel
I use Genkernel so I haven't done the compiling of the kernel in the same way but it still doesn't work.
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA_sound_mixer_aka_dmix#Preparing_Kernel_2.6
also doesn't work
| Quote: | edapont jon # alsamixer
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device |
So I get the impression I cannot make this work. Any more suggestions before I get so fed up with this I just goto Debian? Must admit I have enjoyed the time I've spent playing with Gentoo but this is outrageous - is there really no way to make this work?

_ReVisions, jonathanhaddock,
We can't have you going to Debian, although that is not as bad as going to Windows.
Please post the following information :-
The output of lspci for all your sound capabale devices, that includes webcams. This will show me your hardware. There is nothing more annoying than sending sound output to a webcam mic because the modules loaded in the wrong order.
The output ofandThis will show if your kernel is OK or not
The output of | Code: | | modprobe -l | grep snd |
and I also need to know if you use alsa-driver, alsa kernel modules or alsa built into the kernel.
Also check that the date/time shown in corresponds with your most recent kernel build. If not, you are not running the most recent kernel you compiled.

_ReVisions,
Your kernel is OK providing snd-intel8x0 is right for your hardware but your /etc/modules.s/alsa file, which should load all the modules is not. You didn't post your lspci output, so I cannot confirm your sound hardware.
Did you run alsaconf (sp)?
That updates /etc/modules.s/alsa. However, I still need to determine your sound hardware, since snd-intel810 did not work when modprobed.

ok solved 
Missing /dev/snd/seq device howto
| Quote: |
Probably when starting qjackctl the first time, it complains about missing seqencer device in /dev/snd/seq. Here a script to install all the needed devices.
Copy the script below into a text file (Text Editor) and save it as mksnd.sh in your home folder. Open the Terminal and type: chmod 755 mksnd.sh
Now execute the script by typing: ./mksnd.sh
Now you can start qjackctl and all the programs relying on it Very Happy

_ReVisions,
If your /dev/ entries were missing, which is what that script fixes, your /dev manager is broken and you have more problems to come.
For kernels atter 2.6.12 you can only use udev. for 2.6.12 and older, you have the choice of udev or devfdd.
udev is preferred.

I had the same problem and that script fixed it for me too. I'm not sure what you're getting at about more problems to come. I have udev installed and I'm running 2.6.15-gentoo-r1. Any clues about where to look for something broken?
Thanks in advance,
Dave
