I guess, yes. It's better to load ALSA before bttv. Then bttv card will register the next available device.
If you really need to install bttv (or any other OSS-related module) as the first card, the following additional config for ALSA will be needed: ================================================================ # we have two cards options snd snd_cards_limit=2 # the first slot is kept empty, load ALSA to the 2nd slot alias snd-card-0 off alias snd-card-1 snd-card-XXX # make sure that this module is loaded on the 2nd slot options snd-card-XXX snd_index=1 # ok, these are normal alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 # sequencer device exists only for the first card alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss # OSS emulated mixer, pcm and midi alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-3 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-11 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss ================================================================ Then you can load bttv safely as the first card. i.e. /dev/mixer for bttv and /dev/mixer1 for ALSA. ciao, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
