Re: SoundCard Problem




alsa wasn't installed, I got it installed and ran "alsaconf".

It couldn't find any PCI or any other driver. I got integrated sound card with motherboard.
That could be the reason.

Tried 'cat /etc/sndstat' , but doesn't display anything.

Checked '/etc/modules.conf', alsa has put alsa-related sound card aliases into it.

When I try 'Music Player' from GNOME desktop, it says 'Nothing at /dev/dsp'

In past, I used 'modconf' and in sound drivers section, I tried putting other drivers e.g. Yamaha,Intel or others and it didn't complain that it couldnt find sound card, then when I tried playing music, it was not giving any error rather there was no sound.

ALSA project page wasn't display my sound card driver. What can I do now????

here is lspci result...

Run
$lspci and see which audio controller you have. I have an asus board
also and my controller is:
0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)

As root, run alsaconf. Does it find your card? If you don't have
alsaconf you need to
#aptitude install alsa-utils
then run alsaconf. If all goes well then run
$alsamixer
and make sure the setting are to your liking.
If alsaconf can't find your card go to the Alsa Project drivers page and
make sure it's supported and which driver it needs.
Cheers,
Jonathan
