Greetings all, Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong or show me what to do to get sound to work using the ALSA driver? I play CD or MP3 via XMMS and no output. Searched for "sound' on sus.com and found article titled "Installing a soundsystems from scratch" and followed this with no problems. Sound on my workstation works OK with W2k and RHL7.3 but I have decided on SuSE 7.3pro due to more multi-media options. Harware detection of sound card (Intel 820) during install was OK. Here is last part of modules.conf: -- options snd-card-intel8x0 snd_index=0 alias char-major-14 off # Alsa sound support. # Warning: please don't modify comments over aliases 'snd-card-#' alias char-major-116 snd options snd snd_cards_limit=1 snd_major=116 # W60f.Kwq_E7BMZmF:82820 820 (Camino 2) Chipset AC'97 Audio Controller alias snd-card-0 snd-card-intel8x0 # YaST2: sound system dependent part # alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 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-0-11 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss -- I can delete/add the card in YaST2 and no errros. When configure sound in KDE Config, changing from "Auto Detect" to ALSA and stop/start the sound daemon I get a thump in the speakers. All help and comments would be greatly appreciated.
