[linux-audio-user] No capturing in 2.6.12.2

[Christoph Eckert]

Argh,


> Sounds like some sort of modem thing.

no it doesn't sound like anything - it *is* a modem ;-) .

My fault. Suddenly, when booting 2.6.12.2, my USB card is card 
0 instead of the AC 97 one.

Now, the outputs of amixer do not differ between 2.6.10 and 
2.6.12.2.

BUT:

* My USB card has always been card 2 (or even three) on 
2.6.10. This is the first day that the USB card is card 0

* The USB card now remains as card 0 even in 2.6.10?!?

* In 2.6.12 I get no input, but at least the monitor (direct 
throughput) works

* Now in 2.6.10 even the monitor doesn't work


BTW: 2 problems that exists on my box for a long time now is 
that

* /etc/init.d/alsasound restart results in 
"cat /proc/asound/cards - no soundcards". I have to reboot to 
fix this. This is independent from the running kernel. Maybe 
I have misconfigured something, or it's a Gentoo bug. 
Re-emerging alsa-lib didn't solce the problem

* After a reboot the mixer settings are never restored, all 
controls are set to 0. I added alsa to the boot process, and 
when shutting down it tells me "Storing mixer levels", but 
these do not get restored for any reason. Can anyone tell me 
which the file is where alsactl stores the settings? I'd like 
to check it

Besides the modules.conf, are there further alsa configuration 
files which I could delete to avoid such weird behaviours due 
to old config files?

cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.6 (Sun 
Aug 15 07:17:53 2004 UTC).
Compiled on Jul 19 2005 for kernel 2.6.10.20050719 (SMP).

epm -qa | grep alsa-lib
alsa-lib-1.0.9


Should I have installed drivers of the same version as the 
lib?


Best regards
