Sound Server Error

DiZASTiX · 05-28-2003, 07:18 PM

I saw this:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/history/52400

so i reinstalled
module-init-tools-0.9.12.tar.gz
and it all went well, but i still get those same errors

my installation of the module-init-tools went like this:

./configure
make
make install
./generate-modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.conf (wasnt necessary)
cp modprobe.devfs /etc/ (dont think i needed to but it iwas in the readme)
depmod 2.5.69

Ok, i got rid of the QM_MODULES stuff, when making modules-init-tools i forgot a step "make links"

Quote:

make links

"make links" makes links to the previous insmod, modprobe, rmmod and
lsmod (which are in /sbin) in /usr/local/sbin

So those messages are now gone, but now i get a lot of module errors, i could only catch these:

modprobe: FATAL: module rtc not found
modprobe: FATAL: module ide_scsi not found
modprobe: FATAL: module tulip not found
modprobe: FATAL: module mousedev not found

I dont get it, i thought i had these modules? What should i do

This is a development kernel, and as such things sometimes don't work. I don't run one myself and it's been a while since I fooled around with it so I can't offer much help.

Ok, i am an idiot!

But the good news, Im writing this after i booted from lilo and i am listening to music! Look, i thought about it, with the default bare.i kernel on the slack9 cd everything worked but sound. So i reinstalled slack, copied the configure file of bare.i downloaded 2.4.20 kernel, in menuconfig i loaded the config file of bare.i, added the sound stuff, rebuilt and walla! I got everything working!!! This is going in the Success stories!

Thankyou Thankyou THANKYOU, Aussie, Quietguy and ant_007uk, i have helped me so much thankyou...i think ill go listen to some more music

Hey, here you go!
http://www.imahosting.com/dizastix/config
It was to big to post here so i uploaded it to my host. Hope this helps, also, it is on the slack cd in /kernels/bare.i/config.

(BTW It took kinda long to compile for me because of all the modules)

noobix · 06-02-2003, 11:32 AM

is this the config with the changes needed?......and now wut do i do with it exactly?....

linux would rule if it made noise.....

noobix · 06-02-2003, 03:51 PM

i found an alternate way to fix the problem through altering the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file

this method seems much easier than the methods listed earlier....all you have to do is login as root and add the following line to the /etc/rc.d/rc.modules file...

/sbin/modprobe sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=0

thats it!.....too easy, and the best part is the volume control buttons on my laptop are recognized aswell!!!

DiZASTiX · 06-02-2003, 04:34 PM

Wow, and to think i went through all that trouble :P Thanks noobix, if ever i am reinstalling linux i will keep that in mind as a quick fix!

Search this forum for AC97. there are tons of threads.
You might want to try Alsa.

I just want to say thank you to everyone in this thread, I have slackware 9 and an es1868 isa card, i thougth there was no chance to get it going i gave up, came back got the confidence to recompile the kernel (which i did about 5 or 6 times) and now know a little bit more about linux. Thanks again!
