I have already run alsamixer many times and tried every combination of muted and unmuted settings with all volumes maximized. With no volume settings muted, and all volume settings at maximum level, I still get no sound. Everything *looks* like it's working - output in the kernel log, xmms's display, everything. But I get no sound out of the built-in speaker or the headphone jack. I have tried the following: * Default install of Fedora Core 3; it recognized the sound card and installed module settings in /etc/modprobe.conf to load snd-intel8x0. But I never got any sound out of this default install no matter what I tried. * Custom compiled the 2.6.9 kernel with no patches except the software suspend 2 patch. This built the version of the ALSA drivers that come with 2.6.9. Still no sound. * Downloaded and compiled version 1.0.7 of the ALSA drivers and installed them. Still no sound. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bji - 11-21-04 02:55 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh, I should mention that previously I had been using Debian unstable and the sound worked perfectly. I believe that the kernel version was 2.6.8 or 2.6.9 (unfortunately I have blown away that installation and can't get any information from it). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bji - 11-21-04 03:16 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's my /etc/modprobe.conf if it helps: # Ethernet alias eth0 8139too # USB alias usb-controller ehci-hcd alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd # ALSA alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 options snd-intel8x0 index=0 install snd-intel8x0 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-intel8x0 && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || : remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0 # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot 1 snd-card-1 # Intel Sound alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 11-21-04 02:53 bji New Issue 11-21-04 02:53 bji Distribution => Fedora Core 3 11-21-04 02:53 bji Kernel Version => 2.6.9 11-21-04 02:55 bji Note Added: 0002481 11-21-04 02:56 bji File Added: proc_asound.txt 11-21-04 03:16 bji Note Added: 0002483 ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: InterSystems CACHE FREE OODBMS DOWNLOAD - A multidimensional database that combines robust object and relational technologies, making it a perfect match for Java, C++,COM, XML, ODBC and JDBC. www.intersystems.com/match8
