is your user in the audio group?

DaggyStyle · Post by **DaggyStyle** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 9:01 am

did you unmuted the channel in alsamixer?

ejdesgaard · Post by **ejdesgaard** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 9:17 am

yes.
air@EjdesLap ~ $ groups
wheel cron audio cdrom video users portage vmware

Front is unmuted in alsamixer, but there is not a green "MM" under the PCM bar.

do a web/forum search for snd-hda-intel and 3stack choosing the 3stack model in the alsa confing solved my issues

Good luck

Marcin

DaggyStyle · Post by **DaggyStyle** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 10:33 am

kernel version + alsa-driver version please

ejdesgaard · Post by **ejdesgaard** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 11:57 am

air@EjdesLap ~ $ cat /proc/asound/version
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.14rc3.
Compiled on Apr 21 2007 for kernel 2.6.20-gentoo-r6 (SMP).

Adding the model=3stack options did not help either

DaggyStyle · Post by **DaggyStyle** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 6:10 pm

the modules, are they kernel modules or driver modules?

been a while since touched my gentoo, damm comp is in intensive care for allmost an month now... ;(

ejdesgaard · Post by **ejdesgaard** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 6:38 pm

it's driver modules, as i wrote before:)
alsa-driver-1.0.14-rc3.

Regards
Ejdesgaard

DaggyStyle · Post by **DaggyStyle** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 7:10 pm

the driver, is it latest stable or latest avilable?

ejdesgaard · Post by **ejdesgaard** » Sun Apr 22, 2007 7:15 pm

latest avaleble..
latest stable is 1.0.14-rc2.

well now i get some info in dmesg..

Code: Select all

EjdesLap etc # dmesg | tail
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1b.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64
si3054: cannot initialize. EXT MID = 0000

and still no sound...
PLZ HELP!

I had a similar problem on my Toshiba A100SK9

Try putting:

Code: Select all

media-sound/driver **
media-sound/alsa-headers **

in your /etc/portage/package.keywords
then:

Code: Select all

emerge -av alsa-driver

It should emerge media-sounds/alsa-driver-9999 which is the version from CVS.

Once installed, add:

Code: Select all

options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=auto id="HDA" position_fix=1

in your /etc/modules.d/alsa.

Don't forget to:

Code: Select all

update-modules

If you have problem with master volume not beeing used with the mixer, try to remove position_fix=1.

This sound issue is getting annoying, and I haven't been able to figure it out on my own and with my research.

I tried what was posted above, and I usually just get no sound even though it appears that everything is working properly. Here are my specs:

lspci:

Code: Select all

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=toshiba id="HDA" position_fix=1

In my kernel, I have sound support enabled but alsa disabled, and my alsa-driver is cvs.

Lately, when I try to run /etc/init.d/alsa restart, I get this:

Code: Select all

The laptop model is a Toshiba P105-S6177.

Any help would be appreciated.

i have a macbook with the same sound card. Sound always works when I build the module into the kernel. The just open up a mixer and unmute all.

Im using 2.6.21.

BTW, if you are using kde, make sure you compile with the -arts use flag and add ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel" to your make.conf

Thank you for your response

I've tried the kernel module as well but no cigar.

Are you using Vanilla or Gentoo sources or something else?

Also, here is the relevant make.conf info:

Code: Select all

USE="opengl dbus -qt3 -qt4 -arts X avahi acpi aim alsa cairo cdr cups firefox flac gnome -kde gtk hal howl javascript mp3 mpeg mplayer ogg perl php python usb win32codecs wifi"
ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel"

One thing that occurs to me is that this laptop has a volume dial. Could it be that the sound won't work until after I've loaded the driver needed for that dial? If so, any idea what that would be called?

I have the same onboard sound.

In your /etc/modules.d/alsa

Change this line:

Code: Select all

alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel

To this:

Code: Select all

alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

Not totally sure it will make a difference, but then it would match my working setup.

my /etc/modules.d/alsa

Code: Select all

##  ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
##  OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

# 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

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss

# Set this to the correct number of cards.
options snd cards_limit=1

Run `update-modules' after you've made changes.

Just a note for anyone else suffering with this issue: it's actually related to acpi. As soon as you boot with acpi=off, sound works. I've spent some time working on fixing my dstd, which I guess has fixed the problem for some people. If I ever get it working, I'll post here.
