Alsa not working on P4PE motherboard using Gentoo
followed instructions on gentoo's website to installed alsa sound.
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml However the sound is still not working. Tried the mic output as some websites mentioned. Some of the system outputs are below. All suggestions are appreciated. lspci output is: 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) dmesg output is: ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.5 disabled ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1f.5[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.5 to 64 AC'97 0 analog subsections not ready intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 52123 usecs intel8x0: measured clock 211 rejected intel8x0: clocking to 48000 ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1f.5 disabled ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1f.5[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1f.5 to 64 AC'97 0 analog subsections not ready intel8x0_measure_ac97_clock: measured 52140 usecs intel8x0: measured clock 210 rejected intel8x0: clocking to 48000 lsmod is: Module Size Used by snd_seq 41936 0 snd_seq_device 6156 1 snd_seq snd_pcm_oss 32672 0 snd_mixer_oss 13184 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_intel8x0 27548 0 snd_ac97_codec 90016 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm 57608 3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 18436 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 41636 8 snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer snd_page_alloc 7432 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm ac97_bus 1536 1 snd_ac97_codec soundcore 5856 1 snd cat /proc/asound/version: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.16rc2 (Thu Jan 31 16:40:16 2008 UTC). cat /proc/asound/cards: 0 [I82801DBICH4 ]: ICH4 - Intel 82801DB-ICH4 Intel 82801DB-ICH4 with AD1980 at irq 17 |
What desktop environment or window manager are you using? Also, did you make sure that you have enabled the appropriate Intel codec inside of your kernel? What options do you see when you run alsamixer?
|
Try alsamixer, if it runs your card is being handled correctly. Look that the relevant channels are not zeroed or muted.
What did you try and what doesn't work? Does "play" from command line work? |
pgb205,
Your lsmod looks good. Run alsamixer and unmute only Master and PCM, set their sliders to about 70% and test. |
