I have a Giga-Byte GA-7VTXE+ motherboard with Redhat 8.0 .
The sound chip is Realtek AC97
The default kernel modules donīt work as expected .
I downloaded the alsa-drivers , alsa-utils and alsa-lib (not alsa-tools , should i ? )
I have read about and corrected the bug in via82xx.c as described in alsa-devel mailing list
I have compiled and installed alsa-driver :
./configure --with-cards=via82xx --with-sequencer=yes;make;make install
./snddevices
chmod a+rw /dev/dsp /dev/mixer /dev/sequencer /dev/midi
Then i compiled and installed alsa-utils and alsa-lib
I edited /etc/modules.conf :
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
# module options should go here
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
I added .asoundrc to my home directory :
pcm.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
}
I have run alsamixer and unmuted channels.
ALL THIS FOR NOTHING !!!!!!
Anyone can help ?
