Assembled Wisdom!
I bought a new desktop, and installed Wheezy(Debian v 7) on it.
And sound, ALSA, which ran very well with Squeeze, is now
frightful. When it runs, it yields horribly staticy, crackly
sound. When I click to pause a video, the crackly sound
continues for another 4 secondes before ceasing.
Here is the result of my cat of /proc/asound/cards:
0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xf7d14000 irq 43
1 [Intel_1 ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
HDA Intel at 0xf7d10000 irq 43
I believe that they are supported under Wheezy?
My kernel is: vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-686-pae . This is old, I am
told, but my Squeeze kernel was v 2.6 IIRC.
I found that there is a pulseaudio in Debian backports, and I
installed that, but it did not help.
A possibility is to remove the present ALSA from my system, and
then build ALSA on my own. Can ALSA be built from source? I
have gcc 4.7.2 installed.
I shall be extremely grateful for help, or suggestions.
Alan
