OK, the card is recognized by the system and the problem seems to be driver related...
Is there something interesting in /var/log/messages or in 'dmesg' output? Does 'modprobe snd-hda-intel' help?
Answering from work, so I can't check on messages right now. I did try modprobe, and there was no output of any kind. No information, no error messages, just a fresh command-line prompt. I assume I didn't need to run that from any particular directory, do I? I did run it from an admin console.
Yes, you don't need to run the command in any special directory.
That's the impression I got from alsaconf. Its first message was that it couldn't find a PCI card. Is there another place where I should be looking for an updated version of ALSA, or would that come along in the normal course of applying available updates? I've been doing that.
ALSA drivers are part of the Linux kernel, so if there is a kernel patch available you should apply it. Or you can install the latest kernel in parallel to the current one.
As far as I know, this motherboard is reasonably competent, but it's not exactly bleeding-edge. It surprises me that its sound card is so difficult to support.
Well, there might be a slight difference in design but if nobody knows it it's hard to fix it...
Hi all, if modprobe snd-hda-intel doesn't return anything that it means module is loaded. lsmod | grep snd should give list of all modules that contain string "snd" and snd-hda-intel is probably in the list. The lspci entry tells that your card is different: 00:05.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio (rev a2) Mine is MCP51. I just found something that might be helpful: http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=30235 One idea would be to try 10.3 alpha 4. It has new kernel. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
