Hi i'm trying to use alsa (alsa - alsa-base package) as my sound driver on a Dell Inspiron 8600, but nothing works. I've even compiled a new kernel 2.6.9, hoping that it would mysteriously fix the bug. When i run alsaconf it seems to be just fine, but i don't get any sound from any sound applications. And if I run /etc/init.d/alsa start, then it says it can't find any sound cards. (below is all the detail)
anyone have a clue what i could do to fix the problem? cheers Wendy ================================= wajig remove alsa-base dan wajig install alsa-base alsaconf /etc/init.d/alsa stop and /etc/init.d/alsa start ------------ wlv:/home/wlv21# wajig install alsa-base Reading Package Lists...
