Trouble with ALSA

drzigman · 05-21-2005, 01:14 PM

Hey guys! Sorry to trouble everyone with this sound question but i've been working on it for about a week now. I searched all through google, the wikki, and the alsa walkthroughs but I'm still having problems

Anyway, This is a Gateway 4540, with an lntel 82801DB-ICH4 sound device. I've already raised all the volume levels so that can't be it... I'm posting a few things to try to help pinpoint the problem:

Full dmesg (I didn't want to cut something out that I might need):

PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing
** PCI interrupts are no longer routed automatically. If this
** causes a device to stop working, it is probably because the
** driver failed to call pci_enable_device(). As a temporary
** workaround, the "pci=routeirq" argument restores the old
** behavior. If this argument makes the device work again,
** please email the output of "lspci" to bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
** so I can fix the driver.

I'm using slackware with a 2.6.11.10 kernel, I've tried the build in ALSA for the kernel, the new version 1.08 and the development 1.09rc... If anyone has any ideas, or somewhere else to look for more help I'd be much aprecitive. Thank you for taking the time to read through all this!

00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB (ICH4) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)

The audio controller is detected and when I was new to linux a few years back, I also had the same problem. I turned up all the master volumes, etc but found out that there was a "X" MUTE. Uncheck it.

I have turned up all the master volumes using alsamixer and every sound level program I could find in Kde... I appreciate the response, but could you tell me where I might find this "x" mute? Thank you!

post lsmod, what happens when you run alsaconf?

When you are in the mixer, with all the colorful bars and what not, on the first page, usually on top of the first master bar. Or simpler,

TAKEN FROM: http://mostlylinux.com/alsa.html
By default PCM is mute. To turn it on press > and to increse volume press up arrow. Now save and exit by pressing Esc button and have fun.

As it says, "have fun!"

All the levels on everything is up and nothing else is muted...

Thanks for trying to help out

when I run alsaconf I have no trouble installing my sound card, but yet still no sound, even after running amixer and double checking the mix levels in alsamixer... As far as lsmod...
