Whenever you compile a new kernel, you must then 'emerge alsa-driver' in order for ALSA to work with the new kernel. Don't forget that you also have to tell it what card you are using, and you'll want to check your configs. Once you have re-emerged alsa-driver and checked your configs, 'modules update' (I think...away from box right now), then you should be able to '/etc/init.d/alsasound restart' ... That should work--or at least it does for me. :P
Gentooing, Bob aka:Neuros ============================================================ From: "Colin Falkinburg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 2003/12/17 Wed PM 01:00:44 EST To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [gentoo-user] Soundcard not detected I still fairly new to Gentoo and setup a Genkernel installation of Vanilla-sources about a month ago. Everything is working great. So now I'm building a dual boot between Vanilla and the Gentoo-r9 sources so I can play with building the kernel from scratch/stage1. First let me state that I have the soundcard working in the Vanilla-sources/Genkernel side of my dual-boot. On my Gentoo-r9/Make side I compiled the kernel with sound card support (M) and when I try to start alsasound it says "No soundcard detected". When I compiled the kernel I followed the Installation documents and everything worked get, so I'm assuming that I'm missing like one kernel option that needs to be turned on. The only other option that was missed by default was the RTC which I recompiled in and now that works. So what am I missing?
