Hello I have just managed to get alsa09 sound to work on my portable after a lot of difficulty with neither alsa or oss modules loading. I would like to suggest that we start adding an alsa09 howto for Portable PC users. It would have: - Name of PC, sample modules.conf line to use.
My old portable is a Toshiba Satellite 4010CDT which is NOT plug and play sound. See my config here: - ################ ALSA START ## ALSA native device support alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1 ## This is the driver setting alias snd-card-0 snd-opl3sa2 options snd-opl3sa2 snd_isapnp=0 snd_port=0x538 snd_wss_port=0x530 snd_sb_port=0x220 snd_fm_port=0x388 snd_midi_port=0x330 snd_irq=5 snd_dma1=1 snd_dma2=0 post-install snd-opl3sa2 (amixer master 100 unmute; amixer pcm 100 unmute) ## OSS/Lite setup alias char-major-14 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss ############### ALSA END Maybe it could be possible for a config script to automatically find out the make and model of the PC and set up the sound card automatically. I know each Portable PC manufacture has a way to determing what sort of PC the software is installed on, because I have a Dell PC which came with Windows 2000, but the Windows2000 install comes back with a message saying "This is not a Dell PC" so it will not install. This sort of special work would only have to be done for non-plug and play hardware.
