thought the contents of my modprobe.conf might be of interest, so here it is! [root@n-a4831aa7936b4 ~]# cat /etc/modprobe.conf alias eth0 tg3 alias scsi_hostadapter ata_piix alias snd-card-0 snd-ca0106 options snd-card-0 index=0 options snd-ca0106 index=0 remove snd-ca0106 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ca0106 let me know if I can provide you with any more info! I DID confirm that sound actually works on the box. It seems like the drivers/kernel are actually working fine and the problem is nothing more than a default mixer setting (could be that default are made in the hardware, i don't know) As it turns out, MUTING IEC958 output, makes normal(analog) sound work just fine. The command that makes this work for me is: amixer -c 0 sset IEC958,0 mute I'm moving this bug til Anaconda, since I'm not entirely sure who is genaring the default alsa configuration, but know it done during installation. It may be that I just need to accept the defaults since they are determined elsewhere, but it seems like effectively disabling ANALOG output by default is not quite the right thing to do (not in 2006 anyways) :o) Let me know what you think Oh, and since this does not seem to be kernel related at all, all the newer kernel versions exhibit the same behaviour - of course! For the sake of completenes, i've had to change the preferences of the volume control applet to use "CA0106 (Alsa Mixer)" as the device and "Analog Front" as the track to control... Defaults were different, but i'm not sure of exactly how things were before i started fiddling. These changes also make sense to me, as normally i'd expect that the volume control of my desktop OS to control my front speakers. Makes sense to you guys too? This is working out-of-the-box in FC5test3, closing... I'm closing as RAWHIDE since I don't know which component or version for sure. There is a chance this has been fixed in anaconda for a while or something which is only taking effect on reinstallation. I'm still seeing weird behaviour in FC5 final. This is i386 version installed on a MSI K8N Diamond with Athlon64 and SB Live 24. To get any sound out of the system, Digital-1 on the OSS device needs to be muted (wth???), while the IEC958 checkbox on the ALSA device needs to be off. The only volume control that gives any change is Analog Front, but at least it's something. However, there's a big problem with OSS apps: you can't control the volume, and RealPlayer e.g. becomes a real CPU hog for some reason, only reacts every few seconds or so... |
