It is kernel 2.6.11 and it is a custom kernel made by a long time linux admin friend of mine. He helped by building the kernel with many modulesstarting from the alsa within this 2.6.11 kernel. He built it using the support for the aureal vortex 8820 chipset, and the issues started. He asked me to try another sound card, and I inserted an sblive newer and also removed the vortex card. Booted and linux says that the sblive is detected as: emu10k1 with some caps although I can't remember where. Now, I need to know what to look for where sound modules are concerned and where. I am new but good with speakup's reading commands. If the phone helps, I can privately communicate with someone over the phone if necessary! sincerely Eric p.s. the install aside from kernel was done originally using the cd-rom as the kernel2.4.27-speakup that I found by way of the speakup page. I used apt to grab packages from debian. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca]On Behalf Of David Csercsics Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 2:13 AM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: Re: sound install with problem What idstro have you got there and how did you setup your sound? Did you build the ALSA stuff from the sources or what did you do to get the sound stuff working. Also did you build your own kernel or is it a prepackaged one. We need more info. _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup -- No virus found in this incoming message.
