Hi all,

I am trying to configure alsa on my workstation. I followed every bit of what alsa configuration guide says, but when I try to do
# modules-update

I get the following:

I can hear start-up sound when I log in to KDE but when I try to listen to mp3 via xmms it says my sound card is not configured properly.

I am confused whats going on wrong.

Thanks in advance,

Hey there,

Check here first: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml
Pay a bunch of attention to this:

Code: Select all

Kernel Modules 

First of all, before continuing, make sure your kernel has Sound Card Support enabled. If you used genkernel to build your kernel, then this is automatically true. Otherwise reconfigure your kernel.

If you use a 2.6 kernel you can skip the rest of this section and continue with Installing the ALSA Utils as 2.6 already has the necessary ALSA drivers in it. Of course, don't forget to enable support for the sound card you have when configuring your kernel.

Users of 2.4 kernel sources will have to install the necessary ALSA drivers for their soundcard. First find out what soundcard you have. An easy trick is to search for "audio" in /proc/pci: 
It appears that you may have not done that. Also make certain that you have a symlink (ln -s) named /usr/src/linux that points to the kernel source that you want use. Alsa really likes that.

Hope this helps........
