After swaret --upgrade -a, amaroK engines broken - Slack 10.2


I recently did a swaret --upgrade -a. Now when I start amaroK it gives me one error message per engine. I should note that Slackware tells me that the sound driver could not be initialized on startup, and KMix has a little X icon over it in the systray. There is no mixer to select.

Code:
amaroK could not initialize the helix-engine. Please check the paths in "amaroK Settings" -> "Engine"
Code:
KLibLoader could not load the plugin:
libamarok_gstengine_plugin
Error message:
libgstreamer-0.8.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Code:
xine was unable to initialize any audio-drivers.
Code:
KLibLoader could not load the plugin:
libamarok_artsengine_plugin
Error message:
/opt/kde/lib/libamarokarts.so: undefined symbol: _ZTv0_n32_N4Arts16SynthModule_stub11autoSuspendEv
Terminal output in next post.

Help appreciated,
RedNovember

Any help? amaroK is what I use for listening to all my music, and I'm suffering under the whole "sound driver not initialized" thing. It says on startup, "/dev/dsp could not be initialized. Continuing with the null output driver."

Check your Swaret log and see what packages were updated. What were you previously running prior to the upgrade? Did any of the package updates fail? Is depenancy support enabled?

From a quick review of the console output you posted it looks to be a Alsa issue. If this was upgraded, try rolling it back.

Running alsaconf tells me I have no supported PCI card, which is wrong because I know for a fact that I do. Also, where is my swaret log located? I know for a fact that three libraries were necessary, of which 1 (libcairo.so.2) I installed to make things like Firefox work.

Did you post this under the Slackware forum?

There are alot of helpful people in there who could really help you.

Try using aplay to listen some .wav file. Probably you updated alsa-* packages, which you shouldn't if you didn't update the kernel too. Reverting back to original alsa packages should fix it.

I think it doesn't detect my sound card, but I'm not sure on this.
How do I revert packages?

Find the correct (alsa-driver) package for your kernel and use upgradepkg.

More importantly:

Add ALSA to swaret's exclude.

Run
Code:
upgradepkg
swaret --dep
For any missing libraries, use the package browser (look on the Slackware website) to see what packages are missing. "upgradepkg --install-new" those packages.

A side note, alsa-driver package problems magically disappear if you use the modules supplied with the kernel (requires kernel compiling, but worth it IMHO).

alsaconf still doesn't work. I've got a question - If I was to upgrade (recompile) my kernel, would this work? I would like to have the latest kernel out there. How would I use the modules?

I am getting the same error after updating through swaret. I have an external soundcard, and it works fine with other things under aRts, such as Noatun etc. Any solutions?

I still don't have this working. I upgraded to 2.6.16, but I still get the 'null sound driver' message on startup. Any help? No sound apps work at all, including KMix. Alsaconf doesn't detect my card still.

Recompile yor kernel. If you are using "make menuconfig", it's something like this:

First:
Code:
Device Drivers -> 
  Sound ->
    Sound Card Support <M>
Then:
Code:
Device Drivers ->
  Sound ->
    Sound Card Support ->
      Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ->
        <M> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
        <M> Sequencer Support
        <M> Sequencer Dummy Client
        <M> OSS Mixer API
        <M> OSS PCM (digital audio)API
[*] OSS Sequencer API
Next:
Code:
Device Drivers ->
  Sound ->
    Sound Card Support ->
      Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ->
        PCI Devices ->
          <M> next to your card (you can <M> more than one if not sure)
Finally:
Code:
Device Drivers ->
  Sound ->
    Sound Card Support ->
      Open Sound System ->
        < > Open Sound System (DEPRECATED)
This will automatically create the proper ALSA modules for you.

As an alternative, if you are running the kernel from -current, just install the modules and ALSA packages that go with it. SOme prefer this method. I prefer the first method. Makes upgrading kernels a little less painful (no tracking down the proper module packages to go with your kernel). Of course the second method is "easier" if you don't compile your own kernels.

You have another issue with Amarok, too. Don't know where your package came from, but it has a dependency on gstreamer-0.8. You will want to fix that, as well, but the sound issue seemed more pressing...
