Why not use a newer alsa version to make sure that this issue is not
fixed by later releases?

FC6 is not supported anymore, but you can rebuild any kmdl for your
favourite kernel yourself, or you could upgrade to F8 and see whether
this by itself already fixes your issues.

[Alsa-user] Onboard Sound of M2N-VM partially working.

2007-12-22 Thread Ulrich Eckhardt
Hi,

i have a problem, getting the onboard sound of the ASUS M2N-VM DVI 
mainboard to work. The board uses an Realtek ALC662 for sound. As Kernel 
i use currently  2.6.24-rc5. I have tested the following options
3stack-dig, 3stack-6ch, lenovo-101e for the model argument of the
snd-hda-intel module without success.

As long as i have started windows before using linux the Sound works
perfectly well. In this case the kernel reports the following if no 
model option is used:
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2140: hda_codec: model 'auto' is selected
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2760: autoconfig: line_outs=1 
(0x14/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2764:speaker_outs=0 (0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2768:hp_outs=1 (0x1b/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0)
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:2776:inputs: mic=0x18, fmic=0x19, 
line=0x1a, fline=0x0, cd=0x0, aux=0x0

If i boot linux directly the sound will not work. In this case
the kernel shows the following output:
ALSA sound/core/init.c:137: cannot find the slot for index 0 (range 
0-0), error: -16
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1878: hda-intel: Error creating card!
HDA Intel: probe of :00:07.0 failed with error -12

lspci shows:
00:07.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP67 High Definition Audio 
(rev a1)
 Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Unknown device 8290

Is there any other option i could used to get sound working
without first starting windows?

 Has anyone got a clue as to what this is about?  Some audio things do

  the sound subsystem.  ISTRT I had to set up mplayer to use esd (maybe oss) 
  to function.

 On my properly functioning F7 box here I don't have that file -- in fact 
 the only thing in /usr/lib/alsa-lib or /usr/lib64/alsa-lib is an 
 smixer directory containing some libraries.
 
 I would guess that there's something odd in your ~/.asoundrc file.   You 
 could try just removing it.

[Alsa-user] Audigy LS dmix and softvol

2007-12-22 Thread Brad Crotchett
Hi all,

I am using an onboard Audigy LS with the ca0106 driver on Fedora Core 6.
This is on a mythtv box and I would like to use mythtv's internal volume
controls, but of course I don't have a Master control.  I first tried
just using softvol to create a Master control and that did not work.  I
then read that you need to be able to run aplay on the device from 2
consoles simultaneously in order to use softvol.  I could not, so I then
set up dmix.  I can now run 'aplay -Dduplex file.wav' from 2 different
consoles simultaneously just fine.  I can also control the volume with
'amixer set Master 90%' and the volume is correctly set.  In mythtv I
have it set to use the internal volume controls and control Master and I
have the mixer set to /usr/bin/amixer.  Sound comes through fine but I
can not control the volume with the remote.  Also note that with my
new .asoundrc xmms no longer has sound other than 'clicking'.  I can
deal with that later as for now I just want to control the volume with
my remote.  Here is the pertinent info:

 Seems weird to have default settings for a format
 that I have never ever seen in practical useage,
 let alone likely to ever use myself, and I'm
 pretty sure this would be the same for 99.99% of
 folks out there.
   

I know it's not relevant, but 8bit/8kHz mono is far and away the most 
common: telephones the world over use it :-)   Admitedly the either use 
mu-law or a-law to get more out of it, but 8bit/8kHz is far far more 
common that you would first expect.  After that it's going to be CD 
format (44.1kHz, 16 bit, stereo) simply because there are so many CDs 
out there.

However, as Lee said, aplay/arecord are largely for testing stuff and 
they're really not that useful for normal end-user use.  For the purpose 
intended, 8kHz/8bit mono is exactly what I would expect as a default.

[Alsa-user] ladspa format error with ladspa

2007-12-22 Thread Kurt B Cox
I keep getting this error when trying to setup a dynamic range 
compressor. Does anyone have any experience using ladspa plugins with 
ALSA?

I followed the howto on this site http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/
Ladspa_(plugin). I only deviated from their .asoundrc trying to 
troubleshoot. Currently using ALSA 1.0.14
