But I have two questions :
(1) How it's possible to verify that ALSA is enabled or
not in the kernel ?
If you want to know if alsa is already running on your system do
'cat /proc/asound/version' or 'cat /proc/asound/cards'
If this fails, maybe it is installed but not loaded. Try executing
/etc/init.d/alsa status as root.
If this fails, then your system is not running ALSA-lib. Besides
the kernel options (see below), you need to install and add
alsa-lib to your boot sequence.
If you're familiar with kernel building, see the kernel config.
Disable OSS and enable ALSA. Do not forget to enable snd-usb-audio.
And disable Drivers/usb/usb-midi and usb-audio (both are OSS
drivers which otherwise will conflict with the ALSA snd-usb-audio
module).
Best regards
(2) The package alsa-utils is installed, I have all
the
commands
described in the REAME (amixer aplay) but not alsaconf.
Is this command replaced by another command ?
I don't understand why my soundcard is not detected at
boot by kudzu :
Following toshiba specifications, the Sound Chip is on
ISA BUS.
Best regards
