Hi,
My motherboard, Gigabyte GA-K8NF, has nvidia onboard sound. Without the nvidia drivers I have a terrible noise. After I installed the nvidia drivers, the noise disappeared and I can play music in xmms. Unfortunately, the system sounds disappeared too:-(.
After playing with it for a while, it seems to me that the problem is that esd needs to be setup to use (Open Sound System) OSS, because the nvidia driver is not an alsa driver. After I installed the driver, I had to (according to the manual) replace "alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0" with "alias snd-card-0 nvidia" in /etc/modprobe.d/sound. With the new setting, the scripts /etc/init.d/rc3.d/K10alsasound and /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S12alsasound fail to work and esd does not want to start even from the command line.
How to make esd work with an OSS driver?
Thanks in advance!
Ivan
