Hello,
So, I was getting tired of fighting to keep abreast of the latest
developments in the audio world whilst remaining on Squeeze, which
looked like soon forcing me to maintain half the software myself, so
went ahead and upgraded to Wheezy (while being tired). The upshot is a
rather messy system which I have been wrestling for a couple days
now. One problem seems to be a total lack of sound: opening any audio
device returns a "resource busy" error. I'm wondering whether anyone
else ever encountered this? Also, I'm still running a 2.6.33RT kernel:
is the latest alsa-lib backwards compatible to this?
Cheers,
S.M.
aptitude purge $(dpkg -l pulse*| grep ^ii | awk '{print $2}')
did you use `aptitude dist-upgrade` for wheey upgrade?
AFAIK 2.6.33.7 RT is one of the stable 2.6* RT kernels ever
Yeah, it looks like the
upgrade did install some stray, unwanted
pulseaudio stuff, god only knows why. So now aplay & co. work fine, but jackd
still doesn't. It says:
Failed to acquire device name : Audio0 error : Invalid argument
Audio device hw:0,0 cannot be acquired...
Jack: ~JackDriver
Cannot initialize driver
This is for my builtin hda-intel card, but the end-result it more or
less the same for hw:1,0, which is my external USB soundcard. All of
this used to work flawlessly before the upgrade and the kernel/drivers
are the same. Any ideas?
Cheers,
S.M.
