[SOLVED] No ALSA

I've installed the 5/14 release on an Acer C720 Chromebook according tom directions found at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ac … Chromebook and https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners%27_Guide.  All seems well except that I can't find ALSA.

According to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … chitecture ALSA is included in the kernel, yet I get 'command not found' from bash to all of the following:

alsa
amixer
alsamixer
alsaconf
alsactl

Where can I get this package?

Re: [SOLVED] No ALSA

Hello porphyry5, welcome to Arch
If you read the second paragraph of the alsa wiki page you have linked, you will find the information you need...
