greetings! i have been configuring a fresh install of linux mint 14 - mate on my studio pc. originally the onboard nvidia hda soundcard was functional and the rme multiface (PCI) wasn't. so i researched that i need to install alsa to get them both functioning. i installed alsa packages and also the hdsp mixer app and config tool packages. then i read the guide on the alsa website for hdsp multiface setup. essentially i comprehend that i need to disable pulseaudio and replace it with alsa; configure alsa and all will be well. what i have presently is: the sound option is no longer shown in the hardware section of the mint's control center. no sound cards are logged in the os. i think i am right in saying that this is the correct page for the built-in nvidia sound chip: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-hda-intel and this if for the rme: http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-hdsp i went through the extraction and make, install parts shown on the rme page and saw some errors towards the end of the process. now when i re-run the same commands i see permission denied messages (even running sudo). i never got as far as adding entries for soundcard configs into /etc/ modules.conf or an equivalent as no such file exists (That i have yet found in linux mint 14 - mate). is anyone willing to offer any assistance here? or can anyone point me to a forum or chat where ones are that can assist? thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
