Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.0.20-1
Severity: normal
Fresh-out-of-the-box install of Sid on a PowerMac G4 has no sound
and /etc/init.d/alsa-utils gives a flood of error messages.
The fix is to put "snd-powermac" into /etc/modules so that module
is loaded at boot time. That gives sound and also fixes the
error messages.
This is an unknown driver? Please send the output of:
$ lsmod | grep snd
$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
