Hi, After upgrading to Debian/unstable I want to get sound with ALSA. I install alsa-source and compiled the alsa-driver for Soundblaster 128 PCI (Ensoni1 1371) it using kernel 2.4.3. After installation lsmod shows
snd-seq-midi 4816 0 (autoclean) (unused) snd-seq-oss 30400 0 (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 3520 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss] snd-seq 47360 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event] snd-pcm-oss 20176 0 (unused) snd-pcm-plugin 15920 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-mixer-oss 5216 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-card-ens1371 2384 1 snd-ens1371 13264 0 [snd-card-ens1371] snd-pcm 38912 1 [snd-pcm-oss snd-pcm-plugin snd-ens1371] snd-timer 11040 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-ac97-codec 27104 0 [snd-ens1371] snd-rawmidi 12128 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-ens1371] snd-seq-device 4528 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss snd-seq snd-rawmidi]snd-mixer 30576 0 [snd-mixer-oss snd-ens1371 snd-ac97-codec] snd 45264 4 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-pcm-plugin snd-mixer-oss snd-card-ens1371 snd-ens1371 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-ac97-codec snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device snd-mixer] soundcore 4112 7 [snd] This seems to be all right for me but I don't get any sound with aplay. I also installed the alsaplayer and alsaplayer-alsa packages. But when I call alsaplayer from within Gnome's menu nothing happens. Starting alsaplayer from the terminal yields AlsaPlayer 0.99.33-pre2 (C) 1999 Andy Lo A Foe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and others, see AUTHORS file for details and nothing happens. Does anyone have ideas what is missing? -- Stefan Deibel Altkönigstraße 5 D-55127 Mainz Tel. +49(6131) 937390
