| Post subject: | R4V3 - sound issue - Can't locate module sound-slot-0 |
OK, I have FINALLY got a successful R4V3 install (after 4 ISO write attempts) I have everything tried seems to be working except I get no sound from my linux box. I have a SB Live card. here is What I have done so far: - live TV - I see video (better then I saw w/ V2) but no audio - I have recorded video and played back the file on an XP box - looks and sounds great - test_ioctl reports mute =0 and Volume = 58950 - cat /dev/video > file.mpg then playback file.mpg via mplayer ... video but no sound I just noticed these lines in my syslog: Quote: May 13 23:35:06 mythtv modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-slot-0
May 13 23:35:06 mythtv modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module sound-service-0-0 Im assuming that since mplayer has issues, I have some low level issue. where do I start debugging this? Thanx |

Do a locate on those modules. e.g. "locate snd-mixer-oss", which on my machine turns up: /lib/modules/2.4.25-chw/alsa/snd-mixer-oss.o If you can't find them on your system that's problem number one. |

I found this on the alsa project website: Please note that the SoundBlaster Live 5.1 shipped with Dell Dimension 8200 is NOT supported. They have PCI ID 1102:0006. Quote: http://opensource.creative.com/:
"The Dell CT0200 -- The new Live 5.1 card from Dell (CT0200) is not based on the EMU10K1 chip, so the EMU10K1 driver available at SourceForge won't work with it." I really think this fact should be listed in the Supported Cards List - making people aware of the fact that Dell machines and OEM Creative cards very well might be a waste of money. AFAIK, the only way to make this card produce sound on Linux is to buy the BETA binary-only drivers from 4Front at a mere US $35 per seat (and I'm stuck with 40 of these that I really needed sound support on)... Since I have a Dell installed Live 5.1 card, i guess I may have fallen into this. How do I tell if I have this particular card |

talking to myself as I continue research... If I remove the SBLive card and enable audio in BIOS, will alsa-autoconfig script followed by update-modules unconfigure the SB and switch to the onboard intel audio |

that should work, and I believe the alsa autoconfig script will to the update-modules for you. |
