I see snd_pcm under snd_page_alloc above, is that what > you're looking for? No, that's not what I'm looking for. snd_pcm is a generic kernel module for handling wave audio. But it needs a specific sound card driver to talk to. I'm talking about the column labels in alsamixer. Something is puzzling me about the output of lsmod. Two of the loaded modules, snd_intel8x0 and snd_ca0106, appear to be primary sound card drivers. But you only have one sound card, right? I checked the aliases of the two modules to see if there were any that were the same, but they don't seem to have any aliases in common. Hmm... Please provide the following additional information: 1. The output of lspci 2. *All* the column names in alsamixer for the playback view. Invoke alsamixer. Look in the top left corner of the screen. It should have four labels: Card, Chip, View, and Item. For example, on my Dell Dimension 4400 it says: Card: SBLive! Value [CT4780] Chip: TriTech TR28602 View: Playback Item: Master The value in the first three lines: card, chip, and view, will stay the same as you move from column to column, but the value in the fourth line, item, will change as you move from column to column. (You move from column to column by pressing the left and right arrow keys.) When you first invoke alsamixer, you are on the far left column, which is usually labeled "Master". Write down that column label. Then press the right arrow key once. The cursored column will change and the value in the "Item" field will change too. Write that column name down. The value underneath the column may be abbreviated for space reasons, but the value in the "Item" field at the top of the screen will contain the full-length name. When the cursored column reaches the right-hand column and you press the right arrow key again, the screen will scroll, revealing a new column. Keep doing this and writing down column names until you can't scroll right anymore. Then send me the list of names. As an example, here are the column names for my SBLive! Value [CT4780] card with the TriTech TR28602 chip: Master Headphone LFE Headphone 1 Headphone Center 1 Tone Bass Treble PCM <--- This is what I was talking about! Surround Center LFE Synth Wave Wave Center Wave LFE Wave Surround Line Line LiveDrive Line2 LiveDrive 1 CD Mic Mic Boost Mic Select Video Phone IEC958 Coaxial IEC958 LiveDrive IEC958 Optical Raw IEC958 TTL PC Speaker Aux AC97 External Amplifier SB Live Analog/Digital Output Jack These are only the labels for the Playback view. I haven't listed the labels that appear only in the Capture view. Send the values listed for "Card" and "Chip" as well. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

So, > why are there two listings for "Multimedia Audio Controller"? Hmm... I'm wondering if the Intel sound chip is intended to support the Intel "winmodem". (You've seen my rant against winmodems already; so you know how I feel about them.) And maybe that is confusing Linux. Let's try blacklisting the snd_intel8x0 kernel module and see what happens. Follow the instructions for blacklisting given in my web page. Then shutdown and reboot. Then try alsamixer again and see if you have more columns. In particular, we need to see a column labeled PCM or there is no hope for sound. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
