Hello, I was listening some MP3 file and doing some CPU-intensive computations today and sudendly the music turned to stream of wired sounds. The computer was slow a bit, after some seconds my Ubuntu Linux rebooted. After the reboot I cannot see my Audigy 1 card in the system - the only visible soundcard is the integrated Intel one. 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02) Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Unknown device a002 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 22 Memory at f9200000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [70] Express Unknown type IRQ 0 ... 05:00.0 Class ffff: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 03) Subsystem: Creative Labs SB0090 Audigy Player Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 255 I/O ports at <unassigned> [disabled] Capabilities: [dc] <chain broken> 05:00.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Creative Labs SB Audigy FireWire Port (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: Creative Labs SB Audigy FireWire Port Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 255 Memory at f9104800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K] Memory at f9108000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [44] <chain broken> Modules are loaded, I have not changed any configuration. It seems the card is gone. Its a fairly old model from 2004 (plus, minus). Alsamixer is giving the "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device" and there are no devices in /dev/snd (only the Intel ones). My question is -- how to find out there is something wrong with the hardware? ps - any tips for good&cheap soudcard with good latency and 100% compatibility in Linux? could be external... Creative not preffered now :-( Later, -- Lukas Zapletal http://lukas.zapletalovi.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
