So here is my /etc/modprobe.d/alsa
| Code: |
# Alsa kernel modules' configuration file.
# ALSA portion
# OSS/Free portion
##
## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.
##
## ALSA portion
## alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
## OSS/Free portion
## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##
# OSS/Free portion - card #1
## OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
# Set this to the correct number of cards.
# --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---
# --- ALSACONF version 1.0.16 ---
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
alias sound-slot-0 snd-via82xx
# --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. ---

auris,
You are missing | Code: | | options snd cards_limit=1 |
just under | Code: | | # Set this to the correct number of cards. |
but alsa may assume that anyway. If you update the file remember to run modules-update.
Fixing your ALSA startup messages gives | Code: | * Loading ALSA modules ...
* Loading: snd-card-0 ... [ ok ]
* Loading: snd-mixer-oss ... [ ok ]
* Loading: snd-pcm-oss ... [ ok ]
* Loading: snd-seq-oss ... [ ok ]
* ERROR: Failed to load necessary drivers [ ok ]
* Restoring Mixer Levels ...
alsactl: unrecognized option `---' |
other than the error, looks ok. The unrecognized option `---' isn't in your /etc/modprobe.d/alsa.
Stop alsasound, delete or rename your /etc/asound.state (thats all your mixer settings) then start alsasound. What errors now ?

auris,
Post your kernel .config file please (all of it) so I can load it into make menuconfig. Its at /usr/src/linux/.config

I do not know if this help.
1. if you have follow the alsa howto in gentoo handbook
2. and the help from admin not giv you any sound.
this is watt i shod do .
In kernel only pick one drive for your cart,(you downt need more) and dowt pick any genetic.
3. if it is the same (no sound) go for a nother kernel.
and follow the alsa guid in gentoo handbook
and after reboot and you have system sound, add alsa to useflag in make.conf and re emerge multimedia part of gnome or kde. that will put in the plugins the giv sound in players and so on
sorry for bad spelling

Neddy,
If it won't offend, I'd like a crack at that .config. Actually, I've already started working with it. It's probably going to be easiest to start over since it's a genkernel with everything...and I mean everything installed.
Auris, if you'd like this, please also post the results of lspci -n and cat /proc/cpuinfo, as well as your /etc/fstab file.
Thanks.
Blessed be!
Pappy

pappy_mcfae,
Carry on, I'll be interested to see what you come up with. I assume you will go for a kernel matching lspci?
You also need the output of lsusb to make sure you include drivers for all of auris USB devices.
Hint: CONFIG_SND_VIA82XX=y accounts for the | Code: | | ERROR: Failed to load necessary drivers |
message.
As its built in, any attempt at loading it fails. Its safe to ignore the error, as the code is always present.
That probably means we need to see /etc/asound.state to see how the sound card is set up.
However, from a few posts back lsmod shows | Code: | | snd_via82xx 23712 0 |
so the data set we have to work with is not self consistant. You cannot have snd_via82xx in lsmod and CONFIG_SND_VIA82XX=y

Neddy,
Actually, I use lspci -n and this site. It gives a much more accurate accounting of the exact driver needed, and in some cases, alternative drivers. The /etc/fstab lets me know what file system is in use, and the cat /proc/cpuinfo lets me know what kind and how many processors.
I also have set up what I call seed kernels. They are created by make defconfig in each seed's native source, and then given the Pappy touch; which includes all the tweaks and settings I'm using on my machines. Those seeds are stored without devices set up. When I get a request, especially from a genkernel user, I just start out with the fresh seed and graft devices onto those kernels. So far, it works like a charm.
Blessed be!
Pappy
