Hi, I'm running Gentoo (current kernel 2.6.21-r4) on an Asus notebook (A9RP) with almost but not quite working sound: lspci says my soundcard is Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SB450 HDA Audio (rev 01) so I've selected snd-hda-intel (as a module) when compiling the kernel. alsaconf recognizes it, but alsamixer shows my headphone with volume at 0 and doesn't react to any attempts to increase it (while the volume of other alsamixer controls - PCM, CD etc. - can be changed by the up and down arrows) and when I start mplayer, even with the headphone volume maxed out, the sound is barely audible. Googling, it seems lots of people had the same problem before, but I couldn't find any solution that would work for me. Before trying to install ALSA from source, I wanted to ask: is my hardware supported by the driver, or do I have some variant of SB450 (which seems to be quite variable :-/ ) that just won't work? How do I tell? Bye Vasek ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?
