re: alsa

[Tyler Spivey]

you can do an alsactl restore in your .profile, in  a boot script,
or almost anywhere that executes on boot or log in.
the static might mean that your volume and pcm are maxed out and output gain. try lowering them and raising yoru speaker volume - this works for me, probably not for you
unless you have the same sound card.

re: alsa

[Shaun Oliver]

Hi again,
a good setting for me is amixer sset PCM 71%
amixer sset Wav 100% unmute
amixer sset Master 100%
try those settings for starters.
remember everything is case sensitive. it's a pain but it works.

re: alsa

[Igor Gueths]

Hi Cheryl and all. Did you edit /etc/modules.conf or load the module for
your card manually? I ran modprobe snd-cs4236 and modprobe said the module
wasn't there. When I ran insmod snd-cs4236.o, I got all sorts of
unresolved symbols for opl3, mpu401, rawmidi, etc. I guess I'll just have
to move all those modules into
/lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound/isa/cs423x. Could there be any other
possible reasons for this problem? Thanks!

re: alsa

[Cheryl Homiak]

I wouldn't think that /etc/profile would be a great place for it; then I think
alsactl will want to restore every time I login on a new tty.
Seems to me before when I had alsa that there was a debian script somewhere that
determined whether those settings would be done or not, but there was a
discrepancy; somewhere alsa was called alsasound or vice versa, so I always had
to edit that script everytime there was an upgrade. But I don't remember where
it was.

re: alsa

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi Shaun and all.
Love those specifics!

re: alsa

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi igor and all.
Make sure the name you are using to load your module is the same one given in
the INSTALL file of the drivers source, not what you se in /lib/modules.
since I have debian, we aren't really supposed to edit modules.conf. Instead I
put an alsa file in /etc/modutils with aliases that gets read and updates
modules.conf. It depends on your distro.
In fact, it's niggling at the back of my mind that I need something else in
/etc/modutils, something about path or alsapath, though things seem to be
loading fine.
Anyway, I repeat, don't try to load modules as they appear in /lib/modules; for
instance, if I wanted to load my sblive manually, I would do
modprobe snd-emu10k1

re: alsa

[Cheryl Homiak]

Hi Shaun; a couple of your settings are fine, but my amixer doesn't like 'Wav";
says it's unable to find that simple control. Tried "Wave" instead, but it
didn't like the unmute option with that.

re: alsa

[jwantz]

Hi Cheryl,
I know you are Debian, but in Redhat there is a script 
/etc/init.d/alsasound.  It takes care of things like alsactl restore.  
All I need to do are the following three commands:
service alsasound start
service alsasound stop
service alsasound restart
As you would expect, 'service alsasound start' is taken care of during 
initialization.  I would imagine that Debian had the service mechanism 
since it is very standard UNIX, but I don't know.

cd burner

[randy turner]

hi all,
i have made some progress with my iomega usb cd burner
i can mount a cd and read files from it,
i can play a cd with workbone,
how ever ripping is another story!
cdparanoia gives me an eror
something like usb bus can't reset
any help on this?
thanks in advance
randy

Re: cd burner

[Igor Gueths]

Hi Randy. To get the exact error, do cdparanoia -B > error.txt. This will output whatever error you received to error.txt. Then post it to the list and someone possibly I can have a look at it. You can however substitute the command line for cdparanoia with whatever you used, just remember to include the > filename.txt, ehre filename is something like error.txt.

Re: cd burner

[randy turner]

hi Igor,
well the error really is not in cdparanoia,
it is an error in the usb-storage module
i have decided to compile a later kernald
to see if that helps
i will get back with you.
thanks

Re: cd burner

Hi Randy. I would suggest a 2.4.18 or 2.4.19pre8 kernel. This probably
will work for you.

Re: cd burner

[Igor Gueths]

Hi Randy. Have you read the Cd writing howto? Is your cd burner your only
Cd drive? Or do you have another cdrom drive that is ide/atapi or scsi?
Since my cd burner is ide/atapi with scsi emulation running, my syntax is
something like: cdrecord -v -eject -audio -dev=0,0,0 track1.wav track2.wav
etc. You might want to read the cdrecord manpage for more info on syntaxes
you can use. Hope this helps.

Re: cd burner

[Igor Gueths]

Hi Randy. That's interesting that you got your Cd burner to work using
USB. Just watch out for the buffer underruns as Usb provides a much slower
data stream than ide/atapi or scsi. I also wouldn't start any cpu
intensive process during this time. Just a word of advice.

Gates go to hell, your OS is waiting for you there!

Re: alsa

[Sean McMahon]

Do you get sound without doing the modprobe?  Read the documentation at
alsa-project.org to see what modules your card needs.  I don't know if discover
will help here as I haven't seen messages from it in the dmesg output when I
boot 2.6.  You can load some modules using /etc/modules but I'd read the debian
documentation to see what the prefered method is.

RE: alsa

[Dawes, Stephen]

OOPS, I was thinking about 2 things at once, and gave you the wrong
answer. You want to put the alsaconf command in the inittab which is
located in /etc.

Sorry for the confussion.

RE: alsa

[Dawes, Stephen]

Well, you could put the alsaconf command in your localrc file found in
the /etc directory. This may not be the best way to do things, but it is
one place you can put things to start on boot.

when i type alsaconf it searches for my card then says it found a sb16.
thats good. but, what do i do to get it to load automatically at start up. i
know you have to edit a startup file and load the neccisary modules but what
file? and when the computer boots there is a line that says alsa started:not
loaded. i'm asuming it is talking about my card? my system is a debian sarg
box. thanks so much for any advise.

Re: alsa

[Shaun Oliver]

any version of alsa will be gbetter than the kernel sound drivers
because as stated in an earlier post from frank I think it was,
the alsa drivers work independantly of the kernel so the timing issues
that you have with the kernel when you were using the kernel sound
drivers, shouldn't be a problem.
I'm using alsa-driver-0.9.0beta7 on a 2.4.4 kernel.

I am using 0.9.0beta7 which I believe is the latest version, and have not
noticed the problem you described.
