My Creative ViBRA16x ISA PnP sound card is just not installing properly... (It works fine in 10.1.) YaST->Hardware->Sound shows: Index: 0 Card Model: Creative ViBRA16X Selecting Volume shows up nothing. Play Test Sound produced no sound. Following some debugging info found on the net, I Deleted the device and tried to configure it again with Edit. The result was: "The kernel module snd-sb16 for sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters." Next I tried using alsaconf version 1.0.18. I get the selections of "sb16 Creative ViBRA16X PnP" and "legacy Probe legacy ISA (non-PnP) chips. I've tried both with no luck. Both produce this error after "OK, sound driver is configured...": "Loading driver... Starting sound driver: sb16 done Setting default volumes... amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory Saving the mixer setup used for this in /etc/asound.state. /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1513: No soundcards found..." I tried "rcalsasound restart" next and got... Shutting down sound driver Starting sound driver: sb16 No change. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install SUSE 11.1 on system with Creative ViBRA16X ISA PnP soundcard. 2. Try to play sound (no luck?) 3. Use YaST->Hardware->Sound to configure (no luck?) 4. Use alsaconf to configure (no luck?) 5. ??? Actual Results: For YaST->Hardware->Sound config: "The kernel module snd-sb16 for sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters." For alsaconf: "Loading driver... Starting sound driver: sb16 done Setting default volumes... amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory Saving the mixer setup used for this in /etc/asound.state. /usr/sbin/alsactl: save_state:1513: No soundcards found..." Expected Results: For YaST->Hardware->Sound: Expected sound test to play and soundcard to be device 0 for sound For alsaconf: Expected sound test to play and sound to be working, at least minimally as root. Users need "audio" group to be added to permissions.

Under 10.1, ISA PnP lists two Creative ViBRA16X. 11.1 lists the same two Creative ViBRA16X devices but also 14 "Unclassified device"s. Here's one example: ISA PnP Unclassified device Bus: ISA Card Type: PnP Class (spec): Unclassified device Class: Unclassified device Device Identifier (spec): 132096 Hwcfg Bus: isa Model: Unclassified device Old Unique Key: ujpW.13ubA72AEK3 Subvendor Identifier: 147920 Subvendor: PnP Sysfs ID: /devices/pnp0/00:00 Sysfs ID: 00:00 UID: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pnp_PNP0400 Unique Key: z9pp.13ubA72AEK3 In 10.1: Creative ViBRA16X SysFS BusID: 00:01.00 Creative ViBRA16X SysFS BusID: 00:01.01 In 11.1: Creative ViBRA16X SysFS BusID: 01:01.00 Creative ViBRA16X SysFS BusID: 01:01.01 The "Unclassified device" have "SysFS BusID:" 00:00 to 00:0f, with 00:01 and 00:03 missing. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
