Hi;
I am using Knoppix 3.2 ( 4/15/03 build ).
The kernel( according to uname -a ) is:
--------------------------------
Linux Wisdom 2.4.20-xfs #1 SMP Mit Mär 26 15:37:36 CET 2003 i686 unknown
unknown GNU/Linux
-------------------------------
My mother board is a : Intel Desktop Board D845PESV
It has onboard sound.
sndconfig & lspci detects this onboard sound as:
Intel Corp 182801DB AC '97 Audio
I think this uses a driver called i810 as snconfig errors indicate that
it is looking for that driver.
Here are the sndconfig error messages:
--------------------------------------
lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o:
init_module: No such device
?
/lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-xfs/kernel/drivers/sound/i810_audio.o:
insmod sound-slot-0 failed
--------------------------------------
i810_audio.o is there at the path in the error message.
Running dpkg reveals that I have these two things:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- alsa-headers 0.9.2-5
- knx-alsa 0.1-2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
knx-alsa is a script/package made by the Knoppix folks to install ALSA.
Running dpkg -L knx-alsa reveals files that
appear to be the sound driver for my card:
---------
/lib/modules/extra/alsa/snd-intel8x0.o
However running ( as root ) "modprobe i8x0"
just results in an error message about the module not being locatable.
I went to the ALSA site and there are sections that say that driver i810 is supported:
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc...odule=intel8x0
Any ideas about how I can get ALSA to work?
( I'm a newbie )
