[Comm-en] No sound Alt 2.2jr

[Comm-en] No sound Alt 2.2jr

[Chad]

Need some help getting sound working with Alt 2.2jr. Everything seems 
installed. A music cd will run (grip) and display song titles, just no 
sound.  Sound is on in the Alt linux control center, KDE startup in 
enabled , volume is on in Aumix and speakers work. I dont know if 
anything else needs to be 'on'.  Sound works in XP and Mandrake 9.0.  I 
can display the output of cat/proc/pci, cat/etc/modules.conf, 
cat/proc/modules if it will help or is needed. I can see various sound 
related items (in the previous commands) but, do not know if they are 
correct .
Any help is appreciated.
Chad

I too have the same problem. I have a PCI SonudBlasterLive5.1. Alt 2.2
jr. does recongnize the card and tries to load 'snd-emu10k1' as a
module, but it doesn't find it (missing). However, if I do a modprobe
emu10k1 after boot on a console as root, the modules gets loaded. Then I
run 'aumix' and turn the volume up. I have to do this everytime I boot.
I have not found any other way. Even if I include this on
/etc/modules.conf it doesn't load the module automagically.

[jacerdio]

Well,

'rpm -qa alsa' does nothing:


[root@localhost root]# rpm -qa alsa
[root@localhost root]#

What output should be the expected one?

TIA,

Jorge Cerdio.

It was all about checking whether you are unsuccessfully trying to
use ALSA drivers.

$ cat /etc/modules.conf

would reallly help to clarify the situation

I'm sorry fior the confusion

Please send me output of the following commands:

$ rpm -qa | grep alsa
$ cat /etc/modules.conf

BTW, did you proceed in the following order?

# service sound stop
change /etc/modules.conf
# depmod -a
# service sound start

[jacerdio]

Hi Alexandre, thank for the help.

The output of 'rpm -qa | grep alsa' and cat /etc/modules.conf is:


[root@localhost root]# rpm -qa | grep alsa

[root@localhost root]#

When I stop the service sound and start it again is complains that it cannot
load snd-pcm-oss:

[root@localhost root]# service sound stop
Saving mixer settings:
[  OK  ]
Unloading sound module (btaudio):
[  OK  ]

which is needed for snd-emu10k1

However, snd-pcm-oss and snd-emu10k1 appears in the following directories:

[root@localhost root]# locate snd-pcm-oss

/lib/modules/2.4.20-alt7-up/alsa/snd-emu10k1.o
[root@localhost root]#



The only sound I have right now is from the bbtv module, line1 which is
a pinnacle pctv card. But that's it.

By the way, if I change modules.conf and then do a modules update this is
the result:

[root@localhost root]# depmod -a
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-alt6-up/alsa/snd-emu10k1-s
ynth.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-alt6-up/alsa/snd-emu10k1.o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-alt6-up/snd-emu10k1-synth.
o
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.20-alt6-up/snd-emu10k1.ot.

Hope this helps, TIA.
