I sent this to PlanetCCRMA ML yesterday, no response. Thought someone here could help. For some reason I'm getting the following error when using aplay: ALSA lib confmisc.c:672:(snd_func_card_driver) cannot find card '1' ALSA lib conf.c:3492:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device I believe there is some mixup during boot about my Midisport 8x8 (which was 0) and the Delta 66 (which was card 1) The Midisport doesn't seem to appear now. For another weirdness, my modprobe is now: # cat modprobe.conf alias eth0 3c59x alias snd-card-1 snd-ice1712 options snd-card-1 index=1 options snd-ice1712 index=1 remove snd-ice1712 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 1 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ice1712 Would the (behind-my-back) removal of the midisport slip the Delta 66 into card 0 spot, but not tell others that the Delta 66 is now card 0 and not card 1? I don't care much about the Midisport, so why doesn't my Delta66 work? === some helpful hints: # ls /dev/snd controlC0 pcmC0D0c pcmC0D0p seq timer # cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.11.
