Re: [linux-audio-user] newbie to linux sound

Hi, I've compiled and installed all the alsa packages (driver, lib, utils) successfully. Now, when I try to do: 'modprobe snd-cs46xx; modprobe snd-pcm-oss; modprobe snd-mixer-oss; modprobe snd-seq-oss' I get the error: /lib/modules/2.4.20-8/kernel/sound/pci/cs46xx/snd-cs46xx.o: init_module: No such device I've added the following to /etc/modules.conf # ALSA portion alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-cs46xx # module options should go here # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 # card #1 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss any help appreciated, regards, Luke On Sun, 2004-10-17 at 14:02, Luke (Terry) Vanderfluit wrote: > Hi, > > I'm new to linux sound (but not to sound or linux) > So I'm starting off on a journey and need some help. > > I have a dman pci card with cs46xx chipset. > > I'm using Redhat 9, when my machine booted it detected the card and > configured it. > However, all is not right. > there are lots of crackles and pops when the volume is up. > > It can play wavs but it seems the volume needs to be quite high. > > I have downloaded the alsa tarballs (driver, lib, utils) > > > what should be my first step in trouble shooting this setup > > thanks, > kind regards, > Luke
