Hello,
I recently upgraded from Suse 8.0 to 9.1. My SoundBlast Live card worked fine with 8.0 but gave no sound at all on 9.1 with the original kernel 2.6.4. I updated to 2.6.5 and rebooted (many times actually), but still no sound. I have Googled and looked at alsa-project.org, all to no avail.
There has been no hardware configuration change, the drivers load properly, alsamixer and kamix see the card and show sliders for muting/unmuting and changing volume, but nothing works. The speakers are analog, not digital.
Thanks, Eddie, for the information. I do remember seeing the message when it passed through. I didn't save it at the time because I was still running 8.0 and didn't know I would need the information. <rant> It would be really nice to have a searchable archive of SuSE mailing lists, run by SuSE. In my search with Google for clues about my problem, one keyword I used was "suse-linux-e", hoping to find SuSE-specific items. Nothing popped up. Having a list of messages (>5000 in July) without some search capability is next to useless. </rant> Jim
