Hi folks... just installed Gentoo on my new PC. I still have some problems with my custom Kernel and 32bit java nsplugin doesn't work, but nothing as frustrating as a non working sound.
I have a Gigabyte nforce 570 SLI board with 00:06.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2) onboard that uses snd_hda_intel 339492 0 snd_pcm 83848 2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel snd 65896 8 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 15248 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm I'm currently running a Genkernel with sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r5. When I try to play a song with mpg123 I just get: MPEG 1.0 layer III, 192 kbits/s, 44100 Hz stereo initialize_device(): cannot set hw params audio: Success and speaker-test says: Playback device is default Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels Using 16 octaves of pink noise Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz) Buffer size range from 2048 to 16384 Period size range from 1024 to 1024 Using max buffer size 16384 Periods = 4 was set period_size = 1024 was set buffer_size = 16384 Unable to set hw params for playback: Invalid argument Setting of hwparams failed: Invalid argument speaker-test: pcm_plug.c:67: snd_pcm_plug_close: Assertion `plug->gen.slave == plug->req_slave' failed. Aborted I configured my soundcard with alsaconf and it worked(!!!) until this morning. I installed some more softwre today but really don't know what could be the problem. (Didn't do anything ;)). Any help is really appreciated. -- Greetings Chris -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
