I am currently trying to get the alsa utils working with my SB PCI 128
(Ensonic 1371), and I havde it woking through the emulation OSS drivers,
but alsa utils like arecord, alsamixer and aplay can't find them.
alsaplayer fails to load: /usr/lib/alsaplayer/output/libalsa.so
arecord gives me:
[root@home RPMS]# arecord
Arecord: version 0.5.10 by Jaroslav Kysela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Error: unable to obtain longname: No such file or directory
and finally:
[root@home RPMS]# amixer
The ALSA sound driver was not detected in this system.
Any idea what is wrong here ? They are loaded:
[root@home RPMS]# lsmod
