Hi,
I bought the Roland/Edirol UA-1EX for a Compaq nx9010 laptop based on
the ALSA list that it is fully supported. However I can't get it to
work. Here are some details (keep in mind I am a newbie):
Installed ALSA 1.0.12
Running on 2.6.17-6mdv-dazuko, Mandriva 2007.0 PWP (with latest updates)
I read on the web that SoundCore needs to be installed so I did:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] jeff]# modinfo soundcore
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.17-6dazuko/kernel/sound/soundcore.ko
description: Core sound module
author: Alan Cox
license: GPL
alias: char-major-14-*
vermagic: 2.6.17-6mdv-dazuko SMP mod_unload 686 gcc-4.1
depends:
But did you
1) Look to see if it was loaded? (Use lsmod).
2) Load it if not (modprobe soundcore - that as root or via sudo)?
ael
Did it as root.
Here is the sound stuff from lsmod:

Ok, so soundcore is loaded.
So do I need to load 'snd-usb-audio'? How do I do that? (Also, where
To load that module, just
modprobe snd-usb-audio
as root.
Then check lsmod and /var/log/messages to check all is well.
do I find a manual reference for alsa?)
Maybe your distribution provides a package like alsa-doc?
apropos alsa ? [ You said you were a newbie, but perhaps you only meant
to ALSA.]
http://www.alsa-project.org/documentation.php ?
But I am not really an expert, and certainly not with usb with alsa...
Someone on list will probably answer your questions.
ael
Here are the /var/log/messages of the following commands:
# modprobe snd-usb-audio:
Jan 3 20:40:25 nx9010 kernel: usbcore: registered new driver
snd-usb-audio
#alsaconf:
Jan 3 20:42:48 nx9010 kernel: usbcore: deregistering driver
snd-usb-audio
So how do I get alsa to recognize the UA-1EX? Note that before I ran
alsaconf, mcc in Mandriva 2007.0 showed the UA-1EX as a Scanner!
