Hi,
I use Alsa 0.9.0rc3 compiled from source on Woody. The last time I
compiled my kernel however I couldn't get Alsa running again.
I added I2C support to the kernel, activated lm_sensors and some
custom driver for my notebook's 'Application Panel' (three buttons and
a LED. All that works, but I seem to have flipped the wrong switch
somewhere for Alsa.
Compiling and installing Alsa's drivers seems to work without errors,
but I get the following error if I start alsamixer:
alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
It seems that this happens while accessing /dev/snd/controlC0;
/dev/snd is empty here.
I also tried aumix, which exits without error message. The last three
lines of an strace are:
open("/dev/mixer", O_RDRW) = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
open("/dev/sound/mixer", O_RDRW) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
_exit(1)
Indeed, I have no /dev/sound.
(I also get no sound of course.)
Googling brought me nothing, neither did I find any documentation
applying to this.
What could I do to find the cause of this problem?
tia,
Thorsten
