Re: fresh install of squeeze cannot compile alsa
I don't know what hardware you're using, but on my g3 ibook, I've always
had to run the 'alsaconf' command and then 'alsactrl restore' and then the
sound just magically worked. However, with the release of squeeze,
alsaconf is missing. I don't know why:
http://www.google.com/search?q=alsaconf+squeeze&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial&client=iceweasel-a
What I did was to edit my /etc/sources.list to change all the lines back
to lenny. I did an
apt-get remove alsa-utils alsa-base alsa-tools
apt-get update
apt-get clean
apt-get install alsa-utils alsa-base alsa-tools
alsaconf
alsactrl restore
and voila! working sound. I then put my /etc/sources.list back how I
found it, did an apt-get update, and everything is running great.
I don't know if that will work on your hardware, and I'll be interested in
entertaining suggestions that I broke something that I don't know about.
But so far, so good.
