Missing sound module after upgrade
The latest kernel upgrade for Squeeze caused my sound to die. I eventually tracked this down to missing module snd-hda-intel. Performing modprobe snd-hda-intel restores normal operation. I can't find which configuration file to update with this command to allow it to persist through a reboot. Any suggestions, please?

hotplugging pcmcia card (netgear) tries to load sound module
Hi! Under Debian woody I had a working prism54 install. I updated to sarge and the card isn't working any more. The problem seems to be related to the fact, that when I hotplug the card the system tries to load a sound module. Any suggestion what I could do? Here some further information. Please tell me, if I should provide some additional info! 1.) lsmod shows the prism54 module installed, but unused prism54 34096 0 (unused) 2.) ifconfig doesn't show the interface (which should be eth0 in my case). 3.) dmesg shows: cs: cb_alloc(bus 1): vendor 0x1260, device 0x3890 PCI: Enabling device 01:00.0 ( - 0002) Loaded prism54 driver, version 1.0.2.2 eth1: prism54 driver detected card model: Netgear WG511 Intel 810 + AC97 Audio, version 0.24, 04:56:43 Feb 16 2004 4.) removing the card dmesg shows: Assuming someone else called the IRQ eth1: hot unplug detected eth1: removing device cs: cb_free(bus 1) 5.)

Kernel hangs on sound module
Using the debian kernel image 2.4.18 (or 16, 17, etc) I try and insert the module for my sound card (es1371), the kernel hangs. No oops, no messages anywhere, other than a being told loading the module was a success. I have to press the reboot switch to get the machine going again. I pulled out my es1371 sound card and turn onboard audio back on (via82cxxx_audio). When the module is inserted, the kernel hangs again. The last line I see is ac97_codec : AC97 Audio Codec, ID : 0x4943:0x4511 (ICE1232). No other modules are causing problems. So I compiled my own 2.4.19 kernel and built via82cxxx_audio into the kernel. The kernel again hangs when it reaches the sound card. This machine has been running woody for over a year without problems. When woody was released I installed a new HD and a clean new copy of woody. I think this problem happend then, but I rebooted and it went away. I've rebooted many times since then, same kernel, and never had this issue. Now it won't go away. The only other symptom of a problem I have found is that if I tried and boot using the debian kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4, the kernel hangs when partition check appears on the screen. It seems like the partition check is finished, but it just hangs there. The es1371 sound card is now working happily in another woody machine. My onboard sound card works fine if I boot into windows XP (XP is on a different HD). Some information about my system is below. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Re: Removing a sound module?
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] spake thus: i've also found on occasion, my sound drivers will get corrupted after a suspend/resume on my laptop. My laptop's sounddriver can occasionally start spewing out noise (crackling) along with the sound, and usually the sound is also limited to the right speaker (less often to the left one). I had the problem with mpg123, and it still exists with xmms. fuser didn't show anything using the device, but when i checked my processes, esd was sitting there pegging the cpu. when i killed esd, i could remove and reinstall the sound driver (maestro3) and sound would work again. I found that just pausing xmms, or pressing any of the right/left arrow keys to fast-forward or rewind a millisecond fixes the problem. I have no idea what causes it, and my windows-friends are not impressed :-( fun to tell people you are tracking an uptime on your laptop. yeah, me too :P Stig -- www.brautaset.org
irq 7 and sound module
Hello, I have installed the sound module with modconf. My CD works fine but during the installation of the module I get the message : IRQ conflict. When I launch startx gnome-session the sound is stange. I see that the IRQ of soundblaster is set at 7, but 7 is already assigned whereas the IRQ 5 is free on my machine. My question is: is it possible to change the IRQ of soundblaster from 7 to 5 now and how to realize it, without breaking my system ? Thanks in advance for ideas. -- Gerard

RE: problem with sound-module
Just fixed this one! It turns out, that during a routine apt-get upgrade, the packages kernel-source and kernel-headers were updated from 2.2.12-3 to 2.2.12-4. Since the module loading depends on the header files (I believe), and those had changed (slightly), I had to rebuild the kernel. All is better now. This is normally not a problem, when the kernel version changes (like 2.2.12 to 2.2.13), but can be a problem if the PACKAGE version changes (2.2.12-3 to 2.2.12-4).

Installing Sound Module
I recently installed Slink have been quite happy with its performance except that I am unable to get the sound card working. I have tried a couple of other Linux distributions like Red Hat and Caldera's and have found loading the sound driver as a module was much easier. Is there a program that can do this under Debian also (I mean without recompiling the Kernel - I would like to be able to load it as a module). I have a SoundBlaster AWE32 card. Thanks for any help. -D

To get modules, you have to recompile the kernel. In the configuration, you can choose to put it in the kernel or to make it as a module. Take a look at Section 11 of the Debian FAQ for more info on recompiling the kernel. http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/debian-faq-11.html hmmm... speaking of that FAQ, it's slightly out of date... make-kpkg -r Custom.N kernel-image doesn't work anymore, you need make-kpkg -rev Custom.N kernel-image...

sound module died in hamm upgrade
I just did an upgrade from 1.3 to 2.0; everything works except for sound; I'm using the Linux Ultrasound Project's gus driver, compiled as a module. I didn't change or make any updates to the kernel or to the sound package, which has been working fine for a long time on this system. Anyone see this one? Will downgrading my modutils and/or modconf packages fix this problem, or is there something else I should do? Thanks. This is what happens at boottime: Sound: IRQ15 already in use GUS MAX support was not compiled in!!! Invalid minor device 255 Sound: IRQ15 already in use GUS MAX support was not compiled in!!!

Explanation, for the search engines: what happened is that I must've compiled an oss sound module a while back for the gus and it was laying around in /lib/modules -- I deleted it, and now everything's fine. I must say, you can feel the work that was put into hamm -- the improvements are tremendous. I also appreciate the increased number of packages available -- I can clear out a lot of stuff from /usr/local/ now.

Sound Module missing / isapnp AWE64
Hi folks, I`ve got my hands on an AWE64 Value and am trying like buggery to get it working. Installed ISAPNP , shoved it in the init.d files BUT.. In order for this technique to work Soundblaster needs to be installed as a module. Trouble is... using xconfig the Sound stuff can only be compiled straight in. The modulise option is ghosted out. Looking in /libs/modules I see the sound module is missing altogether. Hence.. the AWE will never get initialised. In modconf , the sound option is missing altogether. P.S. After solving the above trouble I could also do with some help in setting up my isapnp.conf for this card. If anyone has one of these working could they mail me their .conf?

making sound module
OK--I've done this 1000 times... I'm building my sound module. I'm certain that if I d/l the normal kernel sources from ftp.kernel.org and build a new kernel that I'd get this to work no problem, as I have many times before moving over to debian. But I'm trying to do things the debian way b/c I like the level of organization. If I don't lose my mind first =) So I've got kernel 2.0.30 running[1]. And I've got the kernel sources headers for 2.0.30 installed[2]. Now I cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/sound. I run make config, and then I run make. I copy the resulting sound.o /lib/modules/2.0.30/misc/, and run depmod -a. I get: /lib/modules/2.0.30/misc/sound.o: unresolved symbol(s) So I get ornery and try insmod sound.o /lib/modules/2.0.30/misc/sound.o: kernel-module version mismatch /lib/modules/2.0.30/misc/sound.o was compiled for kernel version 2.0.29 while this kernel is version 2.0.30. That's interesting, but perhaps misleading (?) Now I notice during the build process that the flag -DMODVERSIONS isn't on, and that would certainly be capable of causing this sort of problem. Oops. now I've got a bigger problem [3]. So now I say to heck with trying to build this thing in place, I'm just going to go build the whole kernel. The thing I quickly notice here is that the usual symbolic links /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm to the kernel source tree don't exist. So when I try to compile, I get cannot find autoconf.h. odd... Fine, I haven't configured the *whole* kernel. OK, so I go back and configure the whole kernel. I go through make config because make menuconfig and make xconfig are completely busticated and useless [4] (does anyone actually use these??). Hell, I build the whole stock kernel and *every* module just to get the sound module... and make modules. (Keep in mind I'm trying to do all of this keeping within the debian framework. I could much more easily just grab the kernel sources and configure them as I please and ignore the whole debian kernel config. That is not my goal, however). Now it builds ok, and with -DMODVERSIONS. But sound.o still doesn't work. Same error. Fine, I'll just install that whole kernel I just made. Sorry, that ain't gonna happen b/c I get System is too big. (Note that, other than the sound, I've just gone ahead and built everything just like it was setup in the config files that came with with kernel sources, presumably those used to build a stock debian kernel ?

(Note that, other than the sound, I've just gone ahead and built everything just like it was setup in the config files that came with with kernel sources, presumably those used to build a stock debian kernel ? Am I naive in thinking that the kernel-sources-2.0.30 are all set up to give me a stock debian kernel?--but dammit, that's just a huge tangent from what I want to do anyway!) You have to make zImage and put linux/arch/i386/boot/zImage as vmlinuz. If this is still too big, then use make bzImage and install linux/arch/i386/bo ot/bzImage as LILO's vmlinuz. BTW, you could use kernel-package. It will do the right thing. Phil. make bzImage might do the trick for me. I'll also check out kernel-package (as it mentioned in the FAQ), but from the description of kernel-sources, i figured that was outdated or, at least, unnecessary. thanks --sf -- Steve Farrell URL:http://www.farrell.org/stephen_paul/ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

sound module
Hi, Can anyone tell me what is the module that replaces sound.o in the 2.0.27 kernel ?? Thanks very much George --- George Kapetanios Churchill College Cambridge, CB3 0DS U.K.E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---
Sound module
Hi, I just used kernel-image to update from kernel 2.0.0 to 2.0.27 Everything went fine but the module sound in 2.0.0 does not seem to exist in 2.0.27. Could someone tell what exactly it is for and whether a module exists that replaces it in 2.0.27 ?? Thanks very much George. --- George Kapetanios Churchill College Cambridge, CB3 0DS U.K.E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---

But I miss the sound module... is there a sound module for the 2.0.27 kernel? i miss it to but in order to get those dam cdrom-drivers not to search in the startup sequence you must recompile the kernel? or have i missed something. _, _, __, _, __, _, _, __, _, _ _, _, _ | /_\ |_) (_|_ | / \ | \ |\/| /_\ |\ | | , | | | \ , ) | | , \ / |_/ | | | | | \| ~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ E-Mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Url:http://www.ntostud.mh.se/ Phone:+46 (0)63128373, +46 (0)106556258 -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

FWD: problem with sound module in custom kernel
Victor Torrico has been having problems getting this message to the list, so I offered to forward it, as I am not very familiar with the sound module. Can someone give him a hand? - From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Dec 15 20:08:04 1996 Date: Sun, 15 Dec 1996 19:04:11 -0500 From: Victor Torrico [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Dale Scheetz [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Cannot make zImage that includes sound in kernel Hello, I can compile a zImage fine without sound options enabled in xconfig. As soon as the proper sound options for my sound card (SoundBlaster 16) are enabled in xconfig the zImage compile stops as follows. Also what is CONFIG_AUDIO option? I can't find it in xconfig or in makefile. Using latest .deb kernel-source and kernel-headers (2.0.27). Would someone really be kind and give me a hand?

sound module
I have sound (3.5.5-beta1) compiled as a module, this works and is auto-loaded when required to play midi files with midi player progs (or insmod sound) but gives an error - Sequencer Error: Unable to open Midi #0 write /dev/sequencer: Device or resource busy when trying to play another file without either waiting for auto-clean or manually doing a `rmmod sound', then the device may be used again. This seems to only apply to the midi driver, mod files can be played OK. I have have checked dma.c and the numbers are as the Sound-HOWTO for using drq 0. fuser -v /dev/sequencer gives no output fuser -v /dev/midi0 gives no output top shows nothing running that needs the sequencer. Compiling sound in the kernel gives same results. Is this normal behaviour ? or am I doing something stupid agin :-) Using Debian 1.1 with 2.0.6 Kernel. Is this the type of question that may be asked here ? if not I apologize, Thanks Neil, -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
