Have successfully got ALSA running on my -k7 with an ensoniq 1371 by following the instructions here
http://www.linuxorbit.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sections&file=index&req=viewarticle&artid=541&page=1 And by following the info under the "Stock Debian kernel without precompiled modules" section. Only difference was that it was also necessary to install alsa-base and alsa-utils - just prior to installing the build alsa-module deb. So - I've just tried the same on this -1-686 with 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) Searching alsa-project seems to imply that you need the intel8x0 driver - at least http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/driver-source/pci/intel8x0m.c shows the 82180CA card although the soundcard search on the alsa pages does not. Built the module, installed it and rebooted. lsmod gives for sound modules: snd-seq-oss 29632 0 (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 3264 0 [snd-seq-oss] snd-seq 36624 2 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event] snd-pcm-oss 39172 0 (unused) snd-mixer-oss 13392 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-intel8x0 19400 2 snd-ac97-codec 48556 0 [snd-intel8x0] snd-pcm 61476 2 [snd-pcm-oss snd-intel8x0] snd-timer 14500 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-page-alloc 6324 0 [snd-intel8x0 snd-pcm] gameport 1676 0 [snd-intel8x0] snd-mpu401-uart 3328 0 [snd-intel8x0] snd-rawmidi 13472 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 4192 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq snd-rawmidi] snd 33252 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-intel8x0 snd-ac97-codec snd-pcm snd-timer snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] audio 43352 0 (unused) soundcore 3940 5 [snd audio] And at boot time I get the messages: intel8x0: clocking to 48000 ALSA mixer_oss.c:1224: unable to register OSS mixer device 0:0 ALSA pcm_oss.c:2376: unable to register OSS PCM device 0:0 Google for ALSA "unable to register OSS PCM" gives hits for the 2.6 kernel but not the 2.4. Anyone got ALSA running for this sound card? -- Chris Searle [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
