I have an ancient PowerMac G5 dual-core 2.0GHZ (PowerMac11,2) machine I'd like to use to help Hanno Zulla test his new "Sonic Pi" software on bigendian hardware.
But alsamixer tells me I have no audio cards and no audio devices. Or, to put it another way: > rbthomas@bigal:~$ ls -l /proc/asound/ > total 0 > -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 cards > -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 devices > -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 modules > dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 oss > dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 seq > -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 5 19:31 version > rbthomas@bigal:~$ cat -v /proc/asound/cards > --- no soundcards --- > rbthomas@bigal:~$ cat -v /proc/asound/devices > rbthomas@bigal:~$ cat -v /proc/asound/modules > rbthomas@bigal:~$ Am I just not loading the right kernel modules? I'm pretty sure I was able to use this machine with iTunes when it was running MacOS-X, so there is audio hardware in there somewhere. Thanks for any help! Rick
