I'm still trying to get ALSA working with the onboard sound on
my ASUS A7V8X-X MB. The lspci command shows the audio controller as
being a VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller. I'm using RedHat9 but with kernel
2.4.21-rc5. I am also using ALSA 0.9.4. The driver builds OK and the
only indication I get that something might be wrong is the following
error message when I load snd-via82xx:
ALSA ../alsa-kernel/pci/via82xx.c:503: codec_valid: codec 0 is no valid
[0xfe0000]
The symptom is basically no sound - I'm using mpg321 to play an
MP3 file. I know I've got ALSA working in general since I also have a
SoundBlaster PCI-64 (I think that is the name) and I build the ALSA
driver snd-ens1371. When I load this driver and set the mixed settings,
I get sound from the SB. So, I know I'm building the drivers correctly
and getting the mixer settings right etc, I'm just not getting any sound
with the onboard controller. Oddly, when I try to build ALSA with
--with-debug=full I get some strange unresolved symbol errors:
"unresolved symbol _snd_magic_kcalloc_R{something}"
So, my first question is - what does the error message about
invalid codecs mean? And secondly, does anyone else have ALSA working
with RH9 and an ASUS A7V8X-X?
Many thanks,
