Sound stopped working - kernel26beyond 2.6.19

Hi.

Another issue after upgrade sad lsmod showes that it loads modules:

root@ichi ~]# lsmod | grep snd
snd_seq_oss            29440  0
snd_seq_midi_event      6528  1 snd_seq_oss
snd_seq                47056  4 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event
snd_seq_device          6796  2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq
snd_hda_intel          15768  0
snd_pcm_oss            38944  0
snd_mixer_oss          14464  1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_hda_codec         156800  1 snd_hda_intel
snd_pcm                68612  3 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_codec
snd_timer              18948  2 snd_seq,snd_pcm
snd                    44004  9 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore               6624  1 snd
snd_page_alloc          7816  2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm

but then I do ls -l /dev/snd/ it showes there is no device.
Also:

[root@ichi rc.d]# ./alsa start
/usr/sbin/alsactl: load_state:1327: No soundcards found...

Reinstalling alsa does nothing hmm.
Any idea ?

Peace.

Re: Sound stopped working - kernel26beyond 2.6.19

http://matchil.hopto.org/archlinux/dmesg.log

I compared the modules loaded by the previous version of the kernel (where it works) with the once loaded by the *.19 the only diffrence is the size of modules.

ook

rm /etc/asound.state
This removes the old volume state file, snd-hda-intel has changed it's layout before, so it's probably done that again.

then go to alsamixer, do your volumes yourself, see how that works.

Re: Sound stopped working - kernel26beyond 2.6.19

Hm. I've done it, but its not it ... Its not like I have volume problem. Even thou modules are loaded, the ls -l /dev/snd/ gives:

[matchil@ichi ~]$ ls -l /dev/snd/
razem 0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116,  1 gru  4  2006 seq
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 gru  4  2006 timer

Only. No device is found. Donno why. It works with previous kernel and I tested it with -ck (2.6.18 ) and also works good. Its strange that it loades modules good but doesnt create /dev/snd/ entries.

Any other idea ?

Re: Sound stopped working - kernel26beyond 2.6.19

Looks like your soundcard is not initialized for some reason:

ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1b.0 disabled
HDA Intel: probe of 0000:00:1b.0 failed with error -13

Try to reboot first and check the sound and/or try with acpi disabled ?

Re: Sound stopped working - kernel26beyond 2.6.19

After a while ...

Still didn/t manage to make my sound card work with any of 2.6.19 kernels but I achived some progress - when I disaple my modem in BIOS, there are some more /dev/snd/* and when trying to play music I get some error about my sound card being busy.

I guess I'll stick with 2.6.18-ck kernel smile

If you find any solution please post it here smile I might compile the kernel to check if it will change anything ... but some other time hmm

Peace and thanks.
