So, next effort: reinstall 64 bit Hardy, cleanly from CD. modprobe soundcore is now fine. Recompile Alsa from source, including - thank you Daniel - the most recent snapshot. All source compiles without error and installs likewise. alsamixer, however, returns:
ALSA lib control.c:874:(snd_ctl_open_conf) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory This despite reinstalling libasound2 (purge reinstall). The directory /alsa-lib/, not surprisingly, does not contain the libasound module. lspci still finds the card, so does alsaconf, but not aplay -- in other words, Ubuntu knows the card is there, has the drivers available to run it, but for some reason, cannot connect the two. -- cannot install Asus Xonar DX on 64-bit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234804 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
