[Bug 230740] New: no mixer on acer aspire 3102
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 Summary: no mixer on acer aspire 3102 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Sound AssignedTo: tiwai@novell.com ReportedBy: admin@eregion.de QAContact: qa@suse.de after installing 10.2 x86_64 on an amd sempron based laptop (acer aspire 3102 WLMi), i end up with no working alsa mixer. I do have basic sound (pcm output) and basic mixing via the OSS mixer, but i can't use the more advanced stuff like CD playback, or recording, since i cant mix those channels. see https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2458 which is the same problem on 10.1. I already tried alsa drivers 1.0.13 and 1.0.14rc1 instead of the ones in the default suse kernel, did not help. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

If so, how? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 ------- Comment #2 from admin@eregion.de 2007-01-09 02:29 MST ------- could it be a 64bit problem? the knoppix i tried is 32bit, and the alsa mixer works fine... even though knoppix uses alsa 1.0.12. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 ------- Comment #3 from florian.flad@web.de 2007-01-13 07:01 MST ------- What sound driver are you using? I have a similar problem on a Dell system with Intel/Sigmatel HDA driver (snd-hda-intel). Alsamixer exits with "function snd_mixer_load failed: Invalid argument". This is a known bug in Alsas HDA drivers and is fixed (at least for Dell systems) with version 1.0.14rc1. If you are also using snd-hda-intel you can try to set "model=acer": open root terminal, unload driver "rmmod snd-hda-intel", load with option "modprobe snd-hda-intel model=acer". Then open alsamixer to check if the controls are available. If this doesn't work a kernel update should help as you said it works with Knoppix which uses a more recent kernel verison. So if you are brave enough and _know_ what you are doing you might try to install the latest kernel from http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/suse/x8... I'll try this my own to see if it fixes my problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 ------- Comment #4 from admin@eregion.de 2007-01-13 07:29 MST ------- With this problem (which existed in 10.1 as well) I've been going through all available versions from 1.0.11(?) which ships with 10.1 up to 1.0.14rc1, including several HG checkouts. And "model=acer" was one of the first things i did, without that i'd have no sound at all (not even the OSS emu layer). please keep me updated about that kernel experiment. Right now I'm suspecting 64bits as the real culprit, since I tried several 32bit livecds and they all had working alsa mixers, even with older alsa driver versions... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 ------- Comment #5 from florian.flad@web.de 2007-01-13 09:57 MST ------- I just installed factory kernel 2.6.20-rc4 and everything works just fine! You said, you've installed Alsa 1.0.14rc1. I tried this before I upgraded the kernel without success, as the kernel loads it's prebuild modules. Don't now if I did something wrong by just recompiling and installing the alsa rpm from factory-distribution.. Tell me, what output do you get form "modinfo snd-hda-intel"? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=230740 ------- Comment #6 from admin@eregion.de 2007-01-13 11:02 MST ------- the alsa rpm does not contain any drivers at all; you have to download the driver source from www.alsa-project.org, unpack it,then do the usual ./configure; make; make install and i wouldn't know about the modinfo stuff, the laptop in question was sent to manufacturer service today (for different reasons), and i won't get it back before 1-2 weeks. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
