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?
