The following two are the oss usb modules, you should blacklist them in /etc/hotplug/blacklist so that only the alsa modules are loaded. > usb-midi 17180 0 (unused) > audio 41400 0 (unused) It _is_ strange that the alsa usb modules are also loaded... > snd-usb-audio 46336 0 > snd-rawmidi 15072 0 [snd-usb-audio] > snd-pcm 64804 0 [snd-usb-audio] > snd-page-alloc 6676 0 [snd-pcm] > hid 15108 1 > snd-seq 39408 0 (unused) > snd-timer 15876 0 [snd-pcm snd-seq] > snd-seq-device 4416 0 [snd-rawmidi snd-seq] > snd 35428 0 [snd-usb-audio snd-rawmidi snd-pcm > snd-seq snd-timer snd-seq-device] > sbp2 17984 0 (unused) > raw1394 8028 0 (unused) > ohci1394 18196 0 (unused) > ieee1394 35280 0 [sbp2 raw1394 ohci1394] > Wizard root # > > > Wizard asound # pwd > /proc/asound > Wizard asound # more version > Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 0.9.8. > Compiled on Nov 2 2003 for kernel 2.4.20-gentoo-r7 with versioned > symbols. > Wizard asound # > > > I can at this point stop and restart Alsa and everything works: This is, I think, a problem with the stock alsasound script. It does not take into account that other stuff may start alsa subsystems before the alsasound script runs. In this case hotplug loads the alsa usb driver. A while later alsasound is executed but it tests for /proc/asound to determine if it is "already running", that test is true and the rest of the alsa modules are not started. If this is (as I suspect) in your Gentoo box you could try copying the hacks I made to the Planet CCRMA alsasound script so that it loads anything that has not been loaded so far. That should fix the problem. -- Fernando > Wizard root # lsmod > Module Size Used by Not tainted > radeon 103400 1 > usb-midi 17180 0 (unused) > audio 41400 0 (unused) > hid 15108 1 > sbp2 17984 0 (unused) > raw1394 8028 0 (unused) > ohci1394 18196 0 (unused) > ieee1394 35280 0 [sbp2 raw1394 ohci1394] > Wizard root # /etc/init.d/alsasound start > * Loading ALSA drivers... > * Loading: snd-seq-oss > * Loading: snd-pcm-oss > * Loading: snd-mixer-oss > * Loading: snd-hdsp > * Loading: snd-usb-audio > * Loading: snd-seq-midi > * Loading: snd-seq-oss > * Running card-dependent scripts > * Restoring Mixer > Levels [ ok ] > Wizard root # lsmod > Module Size Used by Not tainted > snd-pcm-oss 39492 0 (unused) > snd-mixer-oss 13648 0 [snd-pcm-oss] > snd-usb-audio 46336 0 > snd-seq-midi 4096 0 (autoclean) (unused) > snd-hdsp 39204 0 > snd-pcm 64804 0 (autoclean) [snd-pcm-oss snd-usb-audio > snd-hdsp] > snd-rawmidi 15072 0 (autoclean) [snd-usb-audio > snd-seq-midi snd-hdsp] > snd-page-alloc 6676 0 (autoclean) [snd-hdsp snd-pcm] > snd-hwdep 5344 0 (autoclean) [snd-hdsp] > snd-seq-oss 30368 0 (unused) > snd-seq-midi-event 3840 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss] > snd-seq 39408 2 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-oss > snd-seq-midi-event] > snd-timer 15876 0 [snd-pcm snd-seq] > snd-seq-device 4416 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-rawmidi snd-seq-oss > snd-seq] > snd 35428 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss > snd-usb-audio snd-seq-midi snd-hdsp snd-pcm snd-rawmidi snd-hwdep > snd-seq-oss snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-timer snd-seq-device] > radeon 103400 1 > usb-midi 17180 0 (unused) > audio 41400 0 (unused) > hid 15108 1 > sbp2 17984 0 (unused) > raw1394 8028 0 (unused) > ohci1394 18196 0 (unused) > ieee1394 35280 0 [sbp2 raw1394 ohci1394] > Wizard root # > > Wizard root # cat /proc/interrupts > CPU0 > 0: 115711 IO-APIC-edge timer > 1: 1673 IO-APIC-edge keyboard > 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade > 8: 2 IO-APIC-edge rtc > 9: 0 IO-APIC-level acpi > 12: 20211 IO-APIC-edge PS/2 Mouse > 14: 6667 IO-APIC-edge ide0 > 15: 5 IO-APIC-edge ide1 > 16: 40297 IO-APIC-level ohci1394, [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1:0:0 > 17: 0 IO-APIC-level hdsp > 18: 68 IO-APIC-level eth0 > 21: 1673 IO-APIC-level usb-uhci, usb-uhci, usb-uhci > NMI: 0 > LOC: 115660 > ERR: 0 > MIS: 0 > Wizard root # > > At this point the card has an interrupt, the drivers are loaded, and > everything works. > > My modules.conf file is attached. > > Thanks in advance for any ideas. > > Cheers, > Mark ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
