Hello all;
I am installing Gentoo on my dell Inspiron 9300. I am slightly
confused as to how Alsa should be set up. When I try to run alsamixer
I get the message: no mixer elms found.
In the Kernel config I have set sound card support to "yes" and left
all the Alsa options blank. I have emerged the alsa-driver and
alsa-utils packages. The Internal soundcard is an Intel AC97
controller or module Intel8x0. I have added alsa to load on boot and
added the alsa and Intel8x0 modules to load on boot. And the
SAVE_ON_STOP variable is set to "yes". Eventually I would like to add
my Mackie Onyx 1640 using freebob (but after I solve the alsa issue
first ^_^ ).
Thanks
Are you sure that your sound module is compiled ? What the result of
lsmod ? No error message if you do a modprobe snd-intel8x0 ? Did you put
the ALSA_CARDS = "intel8x0 virmidi" in your /etc/make.conf before
emerging alsa driver ?
For specific questions about gentoo, and if you decide to do serious
audio work, take a look to the Proaudio overlay and subscribe to the
list, people are great.
