Hi there John, First, remember to backup config files. The suggestion I'd give you is to: 1 - put snd-intel8x0 in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 2 - set your /etc/modules.d/alsa like this: alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0 3 - rc-update add alsasound boot 4 - /etc/init.d/alsasound restart
Some programs that use OSS emulation need direct access to PCM. To do this, I have done the following: 1 - Create file /etc/conf.d/oss-emul 2 - Create a line for each program you want to grant permission for direct access, like this: <program_name> 0 0 direct 3 - Add the following line to /etc/init.d/alsasound on the start() funcion: cat /etc/conf.d/oss-emul >> /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss Everytime Alsa starts, it will give permission to the programs. Hope this helps, Raphael. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
