how to make i810's audio module to work with Acer Aspire 1682 ?

cyu021 · 02-05-2005, 05:06 AM

Hi folks,

I followed the following link
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...5&pagenumber=2
and had debian successfully install on my 1682.

However, due to i810-audio is in the /etc/hotplug/blacklist, I am unable to get any sound in Debian.... Does anyone know a workaround to get my sound working ?

Thanks for you help,
James

After the successfull installation, I upgraded the distribution, compiled a 2.6.9 kernel.
After this I removed the modules I added to the blacklist file, and it worked directly.
However, I am not sure that a kernel compilation is mandatory.

guess i'll have to compile the kernel myself...
thanks, my friend :-)

btw, do u make any special config with the "make menuconfig" ?
or u just compile the kernel with default settings ?

Thanks,

I used a good default .config file found on the web:
http://people.via.ecp.fr/~alexis/for...pil-noyau.html http://people.via.ecp.fr/~alexis/for...fig-noyau.html
(sorry it is in french)
you can get the file with

Code:

 wget http://people.via.ecp.fr/~alexis/for...g/config-2.6.x

Then I changed some options in the menuconfig according to the information given by lspci.
Concerning the sound card: check the module SOUND/PCIDEVICES/"Intel/Sys/nVidia/AMD/Ali AC97 Controller"

I Hope it will help you.
