| 313054 | 2005-01-12 08:55:00 | Just an update. Not sure what is relevant. I looked at the links from JenC and Chilling Silence. Yes johnd, there is a /dev/cdrom. It is a link to x-special/device-block. Is that OK? When I run AlsaMixer I see three coloured columns Master(in red) , Master M and PCM. Bottom third of the colums are white, middle is green and remaining part is red. Underneath 100<>100, 100, 100<>100 Remainig columns are empty When I right click Volume control in Gnome the only thing muted is the Mic. Everything is locked though, is that correct? When I max the volume it does still seem to go down again. Not that I get better sound when it is maximised. When I type the command “cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp” I just get a terrible noise When I type the command “aumix -v 100 -w 100” nothing happens lsmod gives the following: [root@localhost ~]# lsmod Module Size Used by vfat 14785 0 fat 45409 1 vfat ppp_deflate 5697 0 zlib_deflate 20697 1 ppp_deflate ppp_async 11585 0 crc_ccitt 2113 1 ppp_async ppp_generic 35669 2 ppp_deflate,ppp_async slhc 7105 1 ppp_generic i915 76869 2 autofs4 24005 0 sunrpc 160421 1 ipt_REJECT 6465 1 ipt_state 1857 1 ip_conntrack 40693 1 ipt_state iptable_filter 2753 1 ip_tables 16193 3 ipt_REJECT,ipt_state,iptable_filter button 6481 0 battery 8517 0 ac 4805 0 uhci_hcd 31449 0 ehci_hcd 31685 0 bt878 11093 0 bttv 150541 1 bt878 video_buf 21701 1 bttv i2c_algo_bit 8521 1 bttv v4l2_common 5953 1 bttv btcx_risc 4425 1 bttv i2c_core 22081 2 bttv,i2c_algo_bit videodev 9665 1 bttv snd_intel8x0 34829 2 snd_ac97_codec 64401 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm_oss 47608 0 snd_mixer_oss 17217 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 97993 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 29765 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 9673 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm gameport 4801 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_mpu401_uart 8769 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_rawmidi 26725 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 8137 1 snd_rawmidi snd 54053 11 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_ oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi, snd_seq_device soundcore 9889 2 snd b44 22341 0 mii 4673 1 b44 floppy 58609 0 dm_snapshot 17029 0 dm_zero 2369 0 dm_mirror 23341 2 ext3 116809 2 jbd 74969 1 ext3 dm_mod 54741 6 dm_snapshot,dm_zero,dm_mirror I did get a read on alsa.conf but it is very long.

| 313055 | 2005-01-12 09:35:00 | When I type the command “cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp” I just get a terrible noise Thats good news. Means the sound is working. Now to get the rest working. I will have a look at my system tomorrow. In windows right now, was gaming. |

| 313056 | 2005-01-12 09:39:00 | Well, it look like you have the same sound chip as I do. When I run AlsaMixer I see three coloured columns Master(in red) , Master M and PCM. Bottom third of the colums are white, middle is green and remaining part is red. Underneath 100<>100, 100, 100<>100 Remainig columns are emptySounds a little different to what you should have. Here is a screenshot of my alsamixer command - screenie (sal.neoburn.net) Your lsmod output looks the same as mine for audio: Mine: snd_intel8x0 34829 2 snd_ac97_codec 63761 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm_oss 48377 0 snd_mixer_oss 17985 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 94921 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 28997 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 9673 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm gameport 4801 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_mpu401_uart 8769 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_rawmidi 26085 1 snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 8137 1 snd_rawmidi snd 53541 13 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss, snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm, snd_timer,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_devi ce soundcore 9889 1 snd When I type the command “cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp” I just get a terrible noiseThat is good :D When I type the command “aumix -v 100 -w 100” nothing happensIt did, if you have a look at your alsamixer, you have the settings on 100 now. 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corp. 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 01) 01:04.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 11)Not sure why you have both these entries tho? |

| 313057 | 2005-01-12 10:37:00 | I had a similar problem with Fedora 1,2 &3. Go to Menu (The Red-Hat)->System Tools->Terminal In the terminal type: alsamixer Press the right-arrow key till you get the 4 VIA DXS. Use the Left-Right arrow keys to select these and one-by-one, use the the up-arrow key to increase these volumes to max. Make sure the Master and PCM volumes are up (I usually don't go any higher than 81 on the PCM or I get distortion). The rest should be easily managed through the graphical util (In my case - KMix). Hope this helps. |

| 313058 | 2005-01-12 10:44:00 | Sorry - just a little clarification: " Press the right-arrow key till you get the 4 VIA DXS. " Keep pressing the right-arrow. It is right at the end. They are the VIA DXS volumes - there should be 4 of them. You know which one you have selected because a red <> appears around the label at the bottom. |

| 313059 | 2005-01-12 10:45:00 | the bt878 is a tv-capture card Try playing around with the difference between alsa and oss in XMMS Grab mpg123 otherwise off the net (rpm or source) and have a play. Chill. |

| 313060 | 2005-01-12 10:50:00 | BTW - cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp is basically just piping random data to your soundcard, regardless of specifying arts, esd, alsa etc... So we know its working, your ouput for applications etc is just b0rked. Chill. |

| 313061 | 2005-01-12 11:25:00 | Thanks all, Jen, could you tell me how you got the screenprint of alsamixer in your post, so I can post mine. I think I have the red colour above the green because the 100 volume is too high. Thanks Mogwai, but I do not have the 4 via DXS in AlsaMixer. But there may be others like it that have to be adjusted. Have a look when I can show a screenprint. I will try that Chill, Antonia |
