> You have to install the new alsa-lib before compiling the new alsa-utils. > >Lee Lee, I believe I did that. I followed exactly the steps in 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 <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> which says: ----------- In a shell type these commands: Make a directory to store the alsa source code in. cd /usr/src mkdir alsa cd alsa cp /downloads/alsa-* . Now unzip and install the alsa-driver package bunzip2 alsa-driver-xxx tar -xf alsa-driver-xxx cd alsa-driver-xxx ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install The snddevices script sets the permissions for the devices it creates to root. You should chmod a+rw /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/sequencer /dev/midi Now unzip and install the alsa-lib package cd .. bunzip2 alsa-lib-xxx tar -xf alsa-lib-xxx cd alsa-lib-xxx ./configure;make;make install Now unzip and install the alsa-utils package cd .. bunzip2 alsa-utils-xxx tar -xf alsa-utils-xxx cd alsa-utils-xxx ./configure;make;make install ----------- In principle the alsa-lib package is installed when I compile the alsa-utils, isn't it?
