Can't get sound to work (CMIxxxx)
Hello everyone! I know that this topic may have been typed to the death already, but I need help getting my soundchips (CMI8xxx, the ones that are already built in to the motherboard). I read the old SuSe Linux manual, it had some instructions for sound which I tried to follow and so far I tried sndconfig, and dselect(ed) isapnp (and it recognizes the soundchips at bootup), but it nags that I need a 2.xomething kernel in order to run, or that it needs soundcard.o files, I think I do have the correct kernel version, but I cannot get any sound out of it. Am I missing something or is there something else that I need to read (something I'm overlooking from the Woody CD dist)? Thanks In Advanced! May the Force of the Dragon's Spirit be with you...In Accordance With The Prophecy. Happy Hacking, Bright Blessings and Gentle Breezes! -*/ -= )O( Jay CoolDragon Arias-Chavez )O( =- /*- En el horizonte vertical yace el espejo de nuestra Alma.

Did you actually compile the kernel yourself or are you using something that is pre-compiled? Your problem sounds like you are missing sound support in the kernel. I think you are missing soundcore.o which is core sound support. Hope this helps. Davor -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I installed debian from the CD as the normal install, I do think that I'm missing something but I don't know what package contains it (dselect what?)

Re: Can't get sound to work (CMIxxxx)
The driver should be provided with the kernel as a module. Try this: modprobe cmpci On Tue, Jan 21, 2003 at 04:21:14PM -0800, Jay wrote: I installed debian from the CD as the normal install, I do think that I'm missing something but I don't know what package contains it (dselect what?)

You will need to install kernel-source-2.4.18 or something like that and compile your own kernel with CMI drivers/modules either compiled in or with those modules installed. This should fix it.

Re: Can't get sound to work (CMIxxxx)
At least some of the Debian kernel-image packages (I run kernel-image-2.4.20-686) already contain many of the CMI drivers, so compiling your own shouldn't be necessary: # grep CMPCI /boot/config-2.4.20-686 CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI=m # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_FM is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_MIDI is not set CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_JOYSTICK=y CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_CM8738=y # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPDIFINVERSE is not set # CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPDIFLOOP is not set CONFIG_SOUND_CMPCI_SPEAKERS=2 On Wed, Jan 22, 2003 at 01:26:07PM +1000, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I installed debian from the CD as the normal install, I do think that I'm missing something but I don't know what package contains it (dselect what?)
