ALSA sound card driver problem
Hi,
The sound card on my laptop is "Multimedia audio controller: Intel
Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller"
(output by "lspci | grep audio").
I choose the "ALSA" as the card driver in the kernel option.
The problem is that, when booting into system, there are errors as
"codec_write 0: semaphore is not ready for register 0x2". And when
login into the system, the sound card can't be used. The system keep
reporting "codec_write 0: semaphore is not ready for register 0x2".
After trying many ways, I find running the command "alsaconf" can
solve the problem. Now the problem is that, everytime I boot into the
system, I must run "alsaconf" first which is not very convenient. I
want to know if there is any solution for my laptop to make a good
configuration of ALSA which doesn't need running "alsaconf" every time
after booted into the system.
Thanks for suggestions!
The following the section for "ALSA" in my kernel config file:
