Ok so I have Debian installed, and I like it a lot, but I can’t get the
sound card to work, can’t even get ALSA to work. So I decided to just run Knoppix from the CD drive, and it
successfully detects my sound card, and it works there. I really don’t want to use Knoppix,
just want to use Debian ‘sarge’.
But without sound, kinda not useful for some other things I want to do
(ie MythTV). So I know that the
linux kernel 2.6 has ALSA already built in, found a website that walked me
through it but it didn’t work. I
reboot and LILO is really screwed up.
Anyone have some suggestions.
Especially how to update sarge to kernel 2.6. Thanks and would appreciate it. -DarDack btw I do have a supported sound card, esnoiqs 1370, snd-es1370 (or
ens1370 can’t remember right now).
In debian if I click on the sound icon, it says can’t find
/dev/mixer/sound or /dev/sound/mixer
no device exists. Don’t know
if that helps. Thanks. |
