Hi all,
i've recently moved from my beloved woody to sarge:Sarge IS GGGGGREAT!
When i was using woody,my sound driver was called ens-1371 (
Well, i was quite happy that ssarge had autodetected and loaded the correct
alsa driver with kernel 2.6
(On bootup it says:
Loaded ens-1371 successfully)
Here comes my issue:
In GNOME,KDE,X AND console there's no error about sound, just no sound.
I changed all the file permissions in /dev/snd to be readable and writable
to anyone. But there's no sound! Ex. When I use the
GNOME volume adjuster, it resets to 0 alone after i've pulled it up!
Please Help!
Thank you in advance!
I found a few things that helped get sound working.
(1) run alsa-config, assuming you're using also, of course.
Sometime I had to rerun it every time I rebooted.
(2) If you are running alsa, make sure you do *not* have any OSS drivers
around. They can be blacklisted, or not installed, or whatever.
Alsa's OSS emulator is OK, though.
(3) When I upgraded to etch, the problems came back until I installed
udev, discover, and hotplug. These jountly seemed to recognise all
my hardware correctly and set up /dev. You probably don't need
hotplug for sound, though (it recognised USB things). I mention
it because I installed it at the same time, and you never know --
there might have been some arcane interaction.
