I tried to add a note to the ALS400 page at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Avance+Logic&card=ALS4000.&chip=als4000&module=als4000
but whenever I try to submit my comment, and error message is displayed.
Because I do not know if the comment is being sent to anyone or not, I have
included it in this message. If my comment has not been received, could
someone please post it so that others may be spared the trouble I took in
digging up updated install documentation. Thanks -rick RWoodring_@xxxxxxxxxxx In order to get ALSA v1.0.13 working on a 2.6.16 kernel with a udev file system, do NOT run the ./snddevices script. The correct entries will be placed in /dev automatically when the kernel modules are loaded and the hardware is detected. Also, I had to create a udev rules file for alsa (/etc/udev/rules.d/15-alsa.rules)as described here (code copied below): http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/multimedia/alsa-utils.html cat > /etc/udev/rules.d/15-alsa.rules << "EOF" # Give the audio group ownership of sound devices SUBSYSTEM=="sound", GROUP="audio" SUBSYSTEM=="snd", GROUP="audio" # ALSA Devices # When a sound device is detected, restore the volume settings KERNEL=="controlC[0-9]*", ACTION="" RUN+="/usr/sbin/alsactl restore %n" KERNEL="hw[CD0-9]*", NAME="snd/%k" KERNEL="pcm[CD0-9cp]*", NAME="snd/%k" KERNEL="midiC[D0-9]*", NAME="snd/%k" KERNEL="timer", NAME="snd/%k" KERNEL="seq", NAME="snd/%k" EOF chmod 644 /etc/udev/rules.d/15-alsa.rulesAnd lastly, instead of using the ~/.asoudrc file described in this document, I had to copy the alsa.conf file from alsa-lib-XXXXX/src/conf/alsa.conf to my /usr/share/alsa/ folder.Without the /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf file in place, I received the following errors when trying to use alsamixer or alsactl ALSA lib control.c:910:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL default alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory ALSA lib control.c:910:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hw:0 alsactl: set_controls:1179: snd_ctl_open error: No such file or directory
