alsaconf kills sound

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When I set up debian etch and an Audigy SB soundcard, I simply
connected to the mini-speakers in my monitor, and sound worked "out of
the box". Now I have a need to use the soundcard for a special purpose
with a mixer, and so my first step was to run alsaconf. Result: no
sound (levels are sufficiently up). 

$ uname -a
Linux teufel 2.6.18-4-686 #1 SMP Wed May 9 23:03:12 UTC 2007 i686
GNU/Linux

$ lspci -v | grep -i audio
04:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)

The module for my sound card is emu10k1. When I do $ lsmod I see
various snd_* modules, snd module, emu10k1_gp, but no emu10k1. I do

	$ sudo modprobe emu10k1
	FATAL: Module emu10k1 not found.

In /etc/modprobe.d I have alsa-base, and sound, etc., but shouldn't
there be emu10k1 as well?

I look in /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-686 and see no sound
subdirectory. Does that mean I'm missing sound modules? 
 
I got hold of a script named "aadebug" and ran it on my sound system,
but got:

Modprobe Conf ---------------------------------------------
/opt/mmedia/aadebug/aadebug: line 34: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'
/opt/mmedia/aadebug/aadebug: line 34: `if [ -f /etc/modprobe.conf ] ; then'

Anyone know how to fix this? The script sounds useful.

Should I install linux-sound-base in lieu of alsa-base?
