{MyLUG #365} Re: Configuring Creative Vibra sound card in Ubuntu 5.10

[Srinivas Murthy G R]

Hi, I did modprobe emu10k1, but no sound.  alsamixer shows ensonique card only.  Probably it has to be removed?  How? The output of the commands is given below:  (I got them after modprobe emu10k1) /sbin/lsmod: Module                  Size  Used by emu10k1                68484  0 sound                  70444  1 emu10k1 ac97_codec             17420  1 emu10k1 isofs                  32824  1 udf                    75524  0 ipv6                  217408  6 rfcomm                 34972  0 l2cap                  22404  5 rfcomm bluetooth              43012  4 rfcomm,l2cap cpufreq_userspace       4444  0 cpufreq_stats           5124  0 freq_table              4484  1 cpufreq_stats cpufreq_powersave       1920  0 cpufreq_ondemand        5916  0 cpufreq_conservative     6820  0 apm                    19308  2 floppy                 52692  0 pcspkr                  3652  0 rtc                    11832  0 snd_ens1371            22240  1 gameport               14472  1 snd_ens1371 snd_rawmidi            22816  1 snd_ens1371 snd_seq_device          8204  1 snd_rawmidi snd_ac97_codec         72188  1 snd_ens1371 snd_pcm_oss            46368  0 snd_mixer_oss          16128  1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm                78344  3 snd_ens1371,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer              21764  1 snd_pcm snd                    48644  10 snd_ens1371,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore               9184  3 emu10k1,sound,snd snd_page_alloc         10120  1 snd_pcm i2c_piix4               8336  0 i2c_core               19728  1 i2c_piix4 pci_hotplug            24628  0 intel_agp              21276  1 agpgart                32328  1 intel_agp nls_iso8859_1           4224  5 nls_cp437               5888  6 vfat                   12288  5 fat                    46492  1 vfat dm_mod                 50364  1 evdev                   9088  0 psmouse                26116  0 mousedev               10912  0 parport_pc             31812  1 lp                     11460  0 parport                32072  2 parport_pc,lp md                     40656  0 ext3                  115976  1 jbd                    48536  1 ext3 processor              23100  0 via_rhine              20356  0 mii                     5248  1 via_rhine uhci_hcd               28048  0 usbcore               104188  2 uhci_hcd ide_cd                 36996  1 cdrom                  33952  1 ide_cd ide_disk               16128  8 ide_generic             1664  0 piix                    9476  1 ide_core              125268  4 ide_cd,ide_disk,ide_generic,piix unix                   24624  636 vesafb                  8088  0 capability              5000  0 commoncap               6784  1 capability vga16fb                12232  1 vgastate                8320  1 vga16fb softcursor              2432  2 vesafb,vga16fb cfbimgblt               2944  2 vesafb,vga16fb cfbfillrect             3840  2 vesafb,vga16fb cfbcopyarea             4480  2 vesafb,vga16fb fbcon                  34176  72 tileblit                2560  1 fbcon font                    8448  1 fbcon bitblit                 5248  1 fbcon /sbin/lspci:  No such file or directory /bin/uname -r:  2.6.12-9-386 Thank you, murthy Ravishekhar S wrote: Hi, try modprobing emu10k1 module. inside /lib/modules/kernel/*** or try installing alsa from scratch by compiling like ./configure --with-cards=emu10k1 --with-sequencer=yes that is the module which is supplied with alsa for Creative Vibra Cards. I checked in my Ubuntu installation and found that it contains that module. Do, $sudo -s #modprobe emu10k1 Check whether the sound works now, if it does, add the module name --"emu10k1" to '/etc/modules' so that it gets loaded every time. ravi
