[SOLVED] No sound - snd_hda_intel

[Shiru]

Hello guys,

Totally new in Gentoo universe, i succeeded installing lots of things but failed for sound.
I read a lot of things, tried lots of solution but still no sound.

I think i understand the problem but i don't know to solve it.

Here are some usefull information

lspci | grep -i audio

One possibility: you complied no soundcard support into the kernel

Can you post the config of sound card support of kernel ?

[Shiru]

It seems ok in the kernel but here's the output :

What does "ls /proc/asound" show?

What does "cat /proc/asound/cards" show?

What does "cat /proc/asound/devices" show?

Assuming a card0 in proc
what does "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec* | grep Codec" show?

Edit to add: if you don't have a /proc/asound directory, then turn on SND_PROC_FS recompile the kernel and see what it shows.

The fact that snd_hda_intel shows up with lspci says the module is getting installed, you have some other problem

ETA2: Do you have either /etc/asound.conf or ~.asoundrc?

Kernel-wise, the sound facilities are built into the kernel, not as modules, so lsmod and modprobe won't have any effect.

It might be beneficial to rebuild kernel with those functions as modules. If nothing else, it makes the kernel a bit smaller; but going modular allows more control over sound module switches without reboot / kernel command line.

The following kernel config works on a Gigabyte F2A88XM-D3H
$(zgrep SND /proc/config.gz | grep -v "#")

Post your .config file, you don't have something configured right in the sound area

As far as which kernel is running, what does "uname -a" show?

When you rebuild the kernel, including modules, it should not leave the old ones around (for the same kernel version).

You're still running the very first kernel you built.

Anon-E-moose, thank you a lot for your advices and taking the time to help me. I finally get sound !
Before replying to your last message i wanted to check lots of things because i was lacking lots of basic information. Then, i finally understood : lots of kernel but just the first one was used so no effect like you said before.
But thanks to this mistake i understand how kernel works so i am glad (but i had a headache for 3 days now !).
Anyway, thanks again and sorry for my lack of knowledge and my bad english.
Sincerely from Japan.

Glad you got it solved.
