ALSA Strangeness
Hello all,
Recently, I set up ALSA on my iBook using the debian packages and make-kpkg. I managed to get everything set up in accordance with Mij's page this time (ie, make-kpkg modules worked), which is nice. However, I can't adjust the volume; it's always very, very low. Also, alsamixer will load, but if I start xmms with the alsa-xmms output plugin loaded, I receive the following errors:
(before playing anything):
"snd_mixer_attach: No such file or directory"
(after trying to play something):
"error opening alsa device: No such file or directory"
The output of lsmod:
