 Posted: Tue Jul 08, 2003 3:05 pm Post subject: Emerging KDE, ALSA compile fails |
 |
|
Hi all,
Sound is working on my system (mp3Blaster works fine) as I compiled support for my nForce2 chipset into the kernel. However when I attempt to emerge kde-base/kde, it attempts to compile medi-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.2 and crashes with
!!!ERROR: media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.2 failed.
!!!Function src_compile, line 59, Exitcode 2
!!!Parallel Make Failed.
Does anyone know what this means and how I can fix it ? or at least point me in the right direction.
Regards,
Derek. |

what kernel are you running? and you should probably try
so you get kde. you can also
| Code: | | emerge --pretend kde |
and see if alsa is in the portage tree for kde and if so you can exclude alsa when actually emergeing kde[/code]

Add this flag to your make.conf
should do the trick... |

Yeup, -alsa did it. I only enabled it because I thought that alsa was the way things where going in the sound world. Meybe later  |

You don't necessarily need to setup alsa in your system... perhaps a simple OSS would do for you. Usually, if you have 2 speakers and a simle sound card, you don't really need alsa. I have a SBLive!5.1 with 5.1 speakers, so I _need_ alsa to make it work fully, more exactly my speakers, that requiere alsa if I want to use all of them. |

|
|
Well, I have the same problem as Deathwing00. I've just re-installed gentoo with the 2.4.22-pre6-ac1 kernel. I use glibc version 2.3.2-r1 with gcc 3.2.3-r1. I have module support activated in my kernel config and have tried with alsa-driver 0.9.2, 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 but to no avail. Could the problem be in using the newest glibc version? Or is this a typical problem?
Note that I need alsa, so I have to get this to work somehow.
Thx in advance |

First give detailed hardware specs. And second, 'no avail' means nothing, better explain the situation fully.  |

All righty then...
(Oh, maybe I should say that it wasn't you, Deathwing00, that had the same problem as myself. It was Drekka. Sorry for the mix-up.)
Hardware: An AMD kt266A-equipped motherboard but I use a ensonic 1370 soundcard instead of the built-in one.
When I tried to build the alsa-driver, I have both tried to set the env-variable ALSA_CARDS to ens1370 and not doing so. My problem is that I when I compile I get a similar message as Drekka:
| Code: |
!!!ERROR: media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.6 failed.
!!!Function src_compile, line 68, Exitcode 2
!!!Parallel Make Failed.
|
My suspicion is that the glibc may be too new for the alsa-driver, but I don't know how to change the version. Is it possible to emerge a parallel glibc and somehow redirect the compiler to use the old one instead? |

Oh, maybe I should say that the actual gcc output seems to be:
| Code: |
serialmidi.c: In function `open_tty´:
serialmidi.c:158: invalid operands to binary >
|
The actual code in the serialmidi.c is:
| Code: |
if (tty->count > 1) {
|
The variable tty is a struct of the type tty_struct. I couldn't seem to find the typedef for that one, and my system is rather crippled at the moment so I don't know what to do with this. My guess is that the overloading of the '>' (greater than) operator may be somewhat strange or just incorrect. (Of course this couldn't be my fault, or could it?  ) |

Could you please ask more specifically? I am writing this on another computer, so it is quite cumbersome to copy every line manually. |

I need almost every line. Specially host related, flags related settings and also env. vars. |

| Well I'd be damned. I tried to install alsa from the top (for about the third time or something) and now it works. Thx anyways for the tips Deathwing00, you're an angel for trying to help out. Or should I say Muchos gracias maybe? |
