anotheer alsa question

[Georgina]

Hi

Don't worry we've done it too before.

I'd added the following to a start up script:

/sbin/modprobe snd-card-emu10k1
/sbin/modprobe snd-mixer-oss
/sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore

Although Kirk offered me an update version but I found these to work very
well.

My major problem was that of permissions have you added yourself to the
audio group?  Are the devices set to the audio group?  I always get mixed up
and its difficult to remember on a MS box, so just type man chmod and man
chown and they'll provide the appropriate information if necessary.  I hope
that I'm not telling granny ......  Oh and to rub it in further, type ls -l
/dev/dsp to view the current situation.

Hope I'm not being patronising and hope that is of some help.

Gena

I feel a little dumb, but I ddiscovered that I was trying to load a
nonexistant misspelled emu10k1 driver for my sblive. I got the driver to
load and alsa sees the card now, but when I try to use mpg123 for example
it cannot find /dev/dsp. Do I need to make this a link to a new device now
that alsa is running the card?

I am discovering that every time you answer/solve one question/problem in
linux you find a new one *grin*. Thanks for the help.
