Hi, guys I'm on Ubuntu Lucid, 2.6.32-45-generic, had audio working up until I pursued new alsa driver a couple of days ago. I compiled and installed 1.025, and now i have no sound. My audio hardware is: 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller and in every kernel module subdirectory I have the "snd-hda-intel.ko" 2.6.32-42-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko 2.6.32-43-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko 2.6.32-44-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko 2.6.32-45-generic/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko EXCEPT IN THE CURRENT KERNEL MODULE ! -- 2.6.32-45-generic I think I lost the file in the course of trying to upgrade my alsa, but then why didn't my new compile/install put a "snd-hda-intel.ko" kernel module among my most current modules? So, obviously, this is the FIRST (though maybe not the only) reason I have no sound now. I compiled the drivers with this configuration: ./configure --with-cards=hda_intel,hrtimer,aloop --with-sequencer=yes AFAICT, the "hda_intel" parameter should force it to produce the "snd-hda-intel.ko" file (?). Well, mine is missing, as I said. ------------------------------- The other possible challenge I am facing is the loopback + jack configuration, which was the primary reason I embarked on this upgrade. I have also compiled most of the concomitant packages... alsa-firmware-1.0.25.tar.bz2 alsa-lib-1.0.25.tar.bz2 alsa-tools-1.0.25.tar.bz2 alsa-utils-1.0.25.tar.bz2 (Except the "alsa-tools-1.0.25/qlo10k1" subdirectory, which couldn't find my QT directory) ------------------------------ So: upon boot, the "snd" module is not inserted; there are no modules with "snd" in them. When I manually insert "snd" and "snd-aloop", I succeed, but the only thing alsamixer shows is the Loopback device (-c0), there is no "-c1" ---------------------------- By the way I tried to revert to official alsa packages and failed miserably; thus, there seems to be no turning back Please help! thanks.
