Alsa broke while upgrading to Slackware-current
Hello,
I'm still a bit of a linux newbie, but i was able to upgrade Slackware 10 to Slackware current without a hitch, except for my sound. I was using alsa for my onboard sound. the sound card is a VT8235 on a Asus A7V8X-X motherboard.Any help in getting this fixed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Bob |
You receive error messages or you just don't get any sound?
try: $ alsamixer $ alsactl store |
I have tried that and alsaconf. here is what i see when i try alsamixer:
root@Demon:~# alsamixer alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device alsaconf tells me that: No supported PnP or PCI card found, and asks if I would like to probe for legacy ISA sound cards/chips. If I tell it yes it also tells me nothing is found. |
Are you sure the appropriate drivers for your card are installed?
|
I'm not sure were to begin checking. Could you point me in the right direction? I've never had this problem before it has always worked right from the begining.
Thanks in advance |
I should probably mention that this was a fresh install of slackware 10 with only the xorg.conf file edited by me so that i could get into X after installing the nvidia driver. I have not even added any users yet.The sound works fine after the install but breaks after upgrading to current.Other than that every thing is just peachy.
Thanks :) |
