PostPosted: Fri Jan 21, 2011 6:31 pm    Post subject: I have the same problem. Reply with quote

I followed every guide or howto to find a solution to the above problem but No solution

the only difference is that i have Intel pci sound card

lspci:
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)


I've installed alsa in-kernel modules as (M) and Intel HDA also as (M).


lsmod doesnt appear snd-hda-intel but modinfo appears info about snd-hda-intel. is that right to be this way?


the errors i get is this type: Error inserting snd_mixer_oss (lib/modules/.../snd-mixer-oss.ko): Invalid module format
[...]
Error inserting lib/modules/.../pci/hda/snd-hda-codec.ko invalid module format
-------------------------------------------/snd-hda-intel.ko invalid module format


any help???????

p.s. sry for the explanation im new in gentoo!

paraflou,

Welcome to Gentoo.

Code:
invalid module format
usually means your kernel is in a mess. Just occasionally it can be fixed with
Code:
 emerge -1 sys-apps/module-init-tools
which i worth a try before you try the mutch longer kernel clean, rebuild and reinstall.

If emerge -1 sys-apps/module-init-tools doesn't help, rebuild and reinstall your kernel, starting with the
Code:
make clean
step

Oh, you should start your own thread unless you are reasonably sure you have the same problem as is described in an ongoing thread.

paraflou,

Your kernel .config should not have changed, so it you had sound support, it will still be there.
Checking is a good thing.

The steps are
Code:
cd /usr/src/linux
make clean
That clears out all the old binarys but leaves your .config in place.
Code:
make menuconfig
to check your settings. Save changes when you exit
Code:
make
make modules_install
mount /boot
That builds the kernel, the kernel modules and installs the kernel modules.
mount /boot is only needed if you have a separate /boot partition.
Code:
cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/<nice_kernel_name>
to install the kernel into /boot

Now check /boot/grub/grub.conf to ensure /boot/<nice_kernel_name> will be booted. Make a new boot stanza if needed.

Run
Code:
 uname -a
Linux NeddySeagoon 2.6.37-gentoo #2 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 13 18:18:00 GMT 2011 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
Note the date and time.
Reboot and run uname -a again. The date and time shouild be nowish as its the build time of the current kernel. The number after the # should also change.

paraflou,

Does alsamixer find your sound card ?

Run alsamixer in a terminal
