Thank you shishir - that link above was really invaluable. By
following that webpage, I was able to get my machine detect the sound
card.
But now I am faced with a new problem. I have posted this to the alsa
users group. But as I have yet to get a reply, I am also posting it
here hoping for some help.
I have an Aztec 2320 ISA based sound card. I have recently
installed Fedora core 2 on my machine. I could not get the sound to
work, so I checked and found that I have indeed sound support compiled
in my kernel (2.6). Then I had visited the alsa-project.org site and
according to their suggestion, loaded the aztec 2320 module -
snd_azt2320. Now my machine correctly detects the card but when I play
a sound file, no sound is heard. I checked that the volume is high by
running kmix and alsamixer program. Also earlier I was able to pop an
audio CD and play it successfully. But after loading the Aztec module,
I am not able to hear that too, though the music is being played.
I have included the lines as specified in the alsa-project.org site
into the /etc/modules.conf file.
The 'lsmod' listing as well as the contents of the '/etc/modules.conf'
file has been included below for your viewing. Please tell me where I
could have gone wrong. Is it that the details given on the site were
for a PCI based card and is different for an ISA based card of the
same chipset?
I checked for the files - /dev/dsp, /dev/mixer, /dev/sequencer and
/dev/midi - but I found that /dev/midi is missing.Though there are
/dev/midi0, /dev/midi1 etc device files.Could it be because of that
too?
Sorry for this long email.
Thanks in advance
Ravi
