This may be a sily
question, but I just compiled that latest version of Alsa drivers for my system
and I'd like to load them and test them out.
The problem I have
is that I've already got alsa drivers installed (as return by lsmod). So when I
try to unload those modules I get a Seg Fault error:
> sudo modprobe
-r snd_azx
sh: line1: 7204
Segmentation fault /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null
2>&1
Am I missing
something here? What are the proper steps to unload a module, and then load in a
new version of the module?
This doesn't seem to
be covered in any documentation. Most of what I can find just talks about
loading in new modules fro the first time. Don't I have to unload the old one
first?
The system is Redhat
- linux 2.6.9-34.ELsmp
The sound modules I
want to unload are: snd_azx, snd_pcm_oss, snd_mixer_oss, snd_pcm, snd_timer,
snd, snd_page_alloc So I can replace them with the newwly compiled
modules.
Actually, it looks
like snd_azx is no longer loaded.... Still I'm a bit confused about the error
message. modprobe is not a shell script.
Ok, I think the
error must be because its trying to run my newwly compiled version of alsactl.
Guess I should have either not installed the new stuff, or unloaded the older
modules first... Wish there was more documentation on this
stuff...
