problems) Reply-To: In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Well as I have stated I downloaded the 2.6.3 kernel, both bin and source. The bin worked fine and came up no problem. The sound did not work however. I had read somewhere to compile ALSA in with the kernel, so off we went. I am now having trouble getting the root partition to load, suspecting this was ext3 not built in I made sure it was, same problem, any ideas anyone?
Back to the ALSA problem, but looking at the bin kernel fro 2.6.3 as it loads . The sound blaster card seems to be recognized by the kernel snip es1370: version v0.38 time 23:28:15 Feb 20 2004 es1370: found adapter at io 0x5000 irq 9 es1370: features: joystick on, line in, mic impedance 0 And when I run alsaconf, it claims to have configured the es1370 from dmesg snip Following card(s) are found on your system. . ens1370 Ensoniq ES1370 [AudioPCI] (rev01) snip snip Running update-modules... Loading driver... Starting ALSA (version 1.0.2c): cs46xx ens1370 ens1370. Restoring ALSA mixer settings ... failed: You may want to run 'alsactl restore' manually to view any errors. Setting default volumes... snip So it thinks the cs drivers are still there? When I then run the aadebug it cannot find any sound cards what files do I need to clean out? Anyother places to lok in the logs? Thanks Brian * [EMAIL PROTECTED] ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > ALl > I have been trying to get ALSA working on my admitadly old IBM 300PL for > the last while.
