No sound card detected
I have CM8738 sound chip and I have enable this CM8738 diver (as build IN) in kernel 2.6.7.
However, the system does not recognize my sound card. Since I build IN the driver I don't need to configure anything, do I? I've emerge "alsa-oss" "alsa-utils", Alsa sound is started but when I type: amixer I get: amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory What am I missing? -- Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

I run the 2.4 kernel and you only enable sound as a module and nothing
for your specific sound card. Have they changed this? http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml -- Phil Our 2nd CD: http://www.cdbaby.com/naomisfancy Naomi's Fancy performances: http://naomisfancy.virtualave.net/schedule.html -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

* Joseph <syscon@interbaun.com> [24-06-2004 17:21]:
This *JUST* happened to me. I have an onboard cm8738 and wanted to use it. I put the driver either built-in or as a module, and none of them works. I tried an 'lspci', and the card just isn't there. I really don't know what might be, but for certain it's not Gentoo. Should be something either with the kernel or with the bios. Btw, I put back the SB Live here, so am using it for now. -- Bruno Lustosa, aka Lofofora | Email: bruno@lustosa.net Network Administrator/Web Programmer | ICQ: 1406477 Rio de Janeiro - Brazil | -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA20Z7iNfNvfQ8L5IRAkvbAJ9Hy2MUQSFC3O92q1VuJQ Zskz4C5QCgoGYP rlkDe60WG1ac37UDKR+CzW8= =wUBB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

Are you running udev? I'm running two similar 2.6 systems with udev. On one, it just works; on the other I have to cause the alsa-oss modules to be loaded at boot time for /dev/dsp ... to be generated. -- /\/\ ( CR ) Collins Richey \/\/ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

What is udev?
If I have a drive compile into the kernel. -- Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

Sorry, If you don't recognize it, you don't have it. udev is the replacement (still experimental) for devfs. As I noted, it still has some quirks for sound. -- /\/\ ( CR ) Collins Richey \/\/ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

I was following these instruction line by line and still no sound.
#/etc/init.d/alsasound start * ALSA Detected... * Restoring Mixer Levels * No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card! # amixer amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory -- Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

Have you emerged some sort of volume control thingy? It sounds as if it
is looking for one. -- Phil Our 2nd CD: http://www.cdbaby.com/naomisfancy Naomi's Fancy performances: http://naomisfancy.virtualave.net/schedule.html -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

You do it by running amixer. Though the problem is my kernel can not find the sound card even though it is there according to statement below:
# cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [CMI8738MC6 ]: CMI8738-MC6 - C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6 C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6 (model 55) at 0xd000, irq 11 # amixer amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory # /etc/init.d/alsasound start * ALSA Detected... * Restoring Mixer Levels * No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card! A lot of folks have problem with this C-Media chip; I guess next time if the hardware does not provide configuration under GPL I will not even loot at it. -- Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |

I won't buy stuff unless Linux supports it, myself.
I have amixer on my system, but I have a sblive card. From locate amixer: /usr/bin/amixer amixer - command-line mixer for ALSA soundcard driver Did you emerge the alsa stuff (and any other extra kernel modules needed) _after_ building your kernel? I emerged: emerge emu10k1 emerge alsa-jack emerge alsa-oss emerge alsa-tools emerge alsamixergui emerge alsa-patch-bay emerge alsaplayer Some may need the very latest alsa as they are always adding support for cards: # Get alsa-cvs mkdir /usr/src/alsa cd /usr/src/alsa cvs -d '  server:anonymous@cvs.alsa-project.org:/cvsroot/alsa' login# Press enter for password cvs -z3 -d ' server:anonymous@cvs.alsa-project.org:/cvsroot/alsa' co -P.. # Update cvs -z3 -d ' server:anonymous@cvs.alsa-project.org:/cvsroot/alsa'update -P -d Unwrap the lines after # Press enter for password (the end of the line should read {-P .})and # Update -- Phil Our 2nd CD: http://www.cdbaby.com/naomisfancy Naomi's Fancy performances: http://naomisfancy.virtualave.net/schedule.html -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list |
