i tried to install alsa driver but always had error :(
 
hello all

iam using suse linux entrprise desktop and i was facing aproblem with my sound card and i downloaded alsa drivers from alsa project site and ia install it like this it was a tar.bz2 file :


In a shell type these commands:

Make a directory to store the alsa source code in.

cd /usr/src
mkdir alsa
cd alsa
cp /downloads/alsa-* .

Now unzip and install the alsa-driver package

bunzip2 alsa-driver-xxx
tar -xf alsa-driver-xxx
cd alsa-driver-xxx
./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install

and this is my output :


linux-77a8:/usr/src/alsa # cp -r /root/Desktop/alsa-driver-1.0.13.tar.bz2 /usr/src/alsa/
linux-77a8:/usr/src/alsa # bunzip2 alsa-driver-1.0.13.tar.bz2
linux-77a8:/usr/src/alsa # tar -xf alsa-driver-1.0.13.tar
linux-77a8:/usr/src/alsa # cd alsa-driver-1.0.13/

Please, run the configure script as first...<<<<<<<<<<<<<this is the error :(

Did you try running './configure' plainly? That might actually get the program to see what processor and make the files to work right. Sometimes (like with printers in some cases), you may actually need to run '--libdir={$PATH}dir' where {$PATH} leads to dir, and it specifies the location of the library. I do not know if this is the problem, because I know that with the CUPS Printer Driver, I had to do something like that. I would advise that, with care, you read the options. I hope this helps

adam_blackice 11-06-2006 12:49 PM

i used ./configure but the out was similer to above :( any how thanx for hrlp but it

XavierP 11-06-2006 12:54 PM

Code:

./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-sequencer=yes
should have been your first install command. What does that give you?

adam_blackice 11-06-2006 06:05 PM

MR. Xavierp tahnx for eplaying and i was waiting for you :)

here i sthe out put for ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel

and when im going to use " make " the error appears tells me that PLZ RUN THE CONFIGURE SCRIPT as first however i used the configure :(

thanx for u again

next steps then are:
Code:

make
make install
alsamixer
<adjust the volumes and unmute them>
alsactl store

and then make sure that the volume control in your window manager/desktop environment is unmuted and you should be rocking!
