|
|
Hi folks,
On my PC when gentoo boots and gets to the Alsa section it start my sound card correctly but also tries to start 7 other cards or so that are not in my system. I tried looking everywhere in all config file (Alsasound etc etc )to see if something is wrong but I can' t find anything.
Does anyone have any idea on where I should look to remove the other cards so alsa doesn' t try to start them ....
Thanks

post your /etc/modules.conf file, specifically the ALSA portion.
mine looks like this:
## ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-1 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-2 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-3 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-4 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-5 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-6 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-7 snd-emu10k1 |

here is what my alsa section looks like :
### update-modules: start processing /etc/modules.d/alsa
# Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsa-driver/files/alsa-modules.conf,v 1.3 2002/06/24 18:05:58 agenkin Exp $
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
##
## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.
##
## ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
## OSS/Free portion
## alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##
# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
## OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
### update-modules: end processing /etc/modules.d/alsa |

Edit /etc/modules.d/alsa file, add the line in bold.
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
options snd snd_major=116 snd_cards_limit=1
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
Then run update-modules and boot. |

Do a "cat /proc/asound/cards" and post output please...
[edit]I also noticed when installing alsa here it defaults to 0.9.0rc2, which is more than half year old, try installing rc5, the most recent one, but mind your modules.conf, the options have changed (all lose the leading snd_, the options that is, not the modules ) tag.[/edit] |
