Hi Bob
Well, this is version of alsa utilities, not alsa driver. But most probable your alsa driver is also 1.0.23. Just to be sure, you can get driver version by "cat /proc/asound/version" Mark Goldstein
Hi Mark,
Nope not the same. Here is what I got.
bob@Easystreet:~> cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.22.1. bob@Easystreet:~>
How do I go about getting the later driver ?
I have a driver that is older than your current, and works fine with Logitech Headsets, mind you I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and gnome, it can actually be done under KDE3 IIRC, I'm not sure if it's in the sound settings, or KDE's preferences application.
Bob, Since Mike says Logitech headsets work with even older alsa driver, probably it's worth checking different settings first. (My headset is Microsoft's, so may be different). I found the following in the old OpenSUSE Wiki: http://old-en.opensuse.org/USB_headphones If you decide to try newer alsa driver, check this: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Alsa-update I used "multimedia" repository on oS 11.1 to update alsa. And of course you can just download the latest (1.0.24 or even git version) driver from alsa site and compile it. The advantage of "multimedia" repository is that you do not need to re-compile the driver yourself. But then when there is update of the oS kernel, you may need to wait a day or two.
