Hi, I have Suse 10.1 with recent updates -- my YaST HW info shows I have the ALSA 1.0.13 (stable) release, and I am having problems with this sound card -- when playing back WAV files through ALSAplayer (after starting Jack with "jackd -R -dalsa -r44100 -p1024" I get very garbled (and loud) audio. Although I can playback a WAV file by Amarok just fine... How do I update my system via Suse YaST to install the development ALSA packages or do I need to install this manually per http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Intel&card=ICH+southbridge+HD-audio+and+modem.&chip=ICH6%2C+ICH6M%2C+ICH7%2C+ESB2&module=hda-intel I see in the "changes" doc that the 1.0.14rc1/2 releases have several fixes for the HDA Intel chip. # lsmod | grep -i intel snd_hda_intel 21652 0 snd_hda_codec 139136 1 snd_hda_intel snd_pcm 86532 3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec snd 56708 11 snd_rtctimer,snd_seq_dummy,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 13576 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm intel_agp 24988 1 agpgart 33352 1 intel_agp Thanks alot, Ronan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
