I'm running debian sarge, and after reading a good many google hints, faqs, etc (also the bit on linuxorbit.com) i still can't get alsa to play any sound. alsa starts up well at boottime, but any application using alsa quits with error messages like "could not find a suitable output module on your computer" (alsaplayer). /dev/snd only has "seq" and "timer" /proc/asound/cards consisists of the single line "--- no soundcards ---". i use a standard 2.4.18-k7 kernel with precompiled alsa-modules (0.9). oss works fine, but it seems i need alsa for recording and editing sound files.
what can i do? thanks for any hints, thaden. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
