The kernel compiles fine, the snd_powermac module loads without any error, but no sound comes up. Running alsamixer gives me a mixer screen where none of the sliders can be moved. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pochini - 08-07-05 10:03 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- card 2: Snapper [PowerMac Snapper], device 0: PMac Snapper [PowerMac Snapper] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Works fine here (dual G4 MDD). Did you remember to turn the "Master Playback Switch" on ? The Burgundy chip worked fine with OSS, but I don't remember if it worked with ALSA. I don't have the b/w G3 anymore. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Quietti - 08-07-05 10:31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pochini: I tried every slider in amixer; they all refuse to move. rlrevell: Absolutely every PowerMac chipset's ALSA support is broken in one way or another; it's *not* just Burgundy. Some chipsets have everything except the console bell working, others everything except sound input, others have the separate volume for the built-in speakers (as opposed to master volume) broken, etc. Someone had started sending info about what works and what doesn't to the Debian PPC mailing list (see http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/ for the archive). Look for a thread whose Subject was "list of PowerMac sound hardware TO-DO (help welcome)" starting around 2005-03-22. NOTE: I'm affraid that very few people will bother filing bug reports to the ALSA BTS for as long as this first requires creating a user account!
