 Posted: Mon Nov 12, 2007 2:06 pm Post subject: No Sound |
 |
|
Hello!
I'm average Gentoo user, not so newbie.  2 years of experience - 3 servers, 2 desktops. The home desktop working brilliantly. The workstation is also fine, except that somehow I lost the sound.
Everything looks fine, configured, loaded, but no sound... The workstation also has winxp partition and the sound works in winxp, so at least I'm sure the sound card is ok.
Here are details:

Hmmm...
There's only one file I don't see posted here; Where's the ~/.asoundrc file?
Example ~/.asoundrc file (for the Intel i8x0 soundcard):
| Code: | pcm.intel8x0 {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.intel8x0 {
type hw
card 0
}
|
Do you have such a file in your home directory? IIRC, that file is required to be able to get sound as a user. It tells the system which card and which driver to use. If you need more info, you can always check at the Intel8x0 page of the ALSA Project.

I don't have this file, at the "Intel8x0 page of the ALSA Project" said:
| Quote: | The .asoundrc file
This file allows you to have more advanced control over your card/device. For most setups the default, system-wide configuration is sufficient. You may change this file only for special setup. |
I have created the file, but it didn't help |

Shouldn't that read? :
