GA-7VAXP Sound problem
This is the third time i try to get some informations about fixing this problem.
Is it impossible to have sound from this board with red hat 8.0.? I can't believe that in all the world nobody can help me!!!!!:cry: |
I ahve heard that in Slackware you use
modprobe ac97_codec modprobe via86cxxx_audio and then it works! run lsmod to see what modules are loaded and see if ac97 is there. I have the same board, but it won't work for me either, but I ahve heard that those commands do! |
Thank you.
Do you know somebody using Red-Hat? Only because i need an help. I downloaded alsa-driver and configured them and other steps but the sound doesn't work. But i think it is very painful to do, because nobody could help me since two weeks when i mailed my request for the first time. |
I have Mandrake 9.1 running on that motherboard. It automatically set up the onboard sound. Here's the relevant output of lsmod
snd-seq-oss 31104 0 (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 5640 0 [snd-seq-oss] snd-seq 42608 2 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event] snd-pcm-oss 43556 1 snd-mixer-oss 14488 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-via82xx 14092 1 snd-ac97-codec 40160 0 [snd-via82xx] snd-pcm 77536 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-via82xx] snd-timer 18376 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-mpu401-uart 4396 0 [snd-via82xx] snd-rawmidi 17600 0 [snd-mpu401-uart] snd-seq-device 5832 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq snd-rawmidi] snd-page-alloc 7732 0 [snd-via82xx snd-pcm] snd 40868 0 [snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-via82xx snd-ac97-codec snd-pcm snd-timer snd-mpu401-uart snd-rawmidi snd-seq-device] soundcore 6276 0 [snd] Does that help? |
GA-7VAXP Sound Problem
I have the same board.
Tunr off ACPI in LILO or Grub. Your problem will be solved. chuck |
I don't have ACPI in my LILO. What is it and where else would I find it? because its not in the lilo.conf file.
|
Turn off ACPI
Enter acpi=off in Extra parameters.
I'm only a couple of years into Linux, so I still cling to GUI config tools. From the KDE Control Panel Select <System> Select <Boot Manager> Type acpi=off in "extra parameters". Your system should (repeat "should") work. With Mandrake I had a problem with the LAN driver With SUSE I had a problem with the Sound driver. So, it seems, ACPI doesn't cooperate nicely, let alone consistently. Let me know how this works out. chuck |
done
Thank you for your help. I apreciate it.
I found what it did not work! The volume in the alsamixer!!! I had to turn it on manually. Now i have other new problems, after all it's not easy to be a newby. See you. |
