Description David Balažic 2001-03-05 19:26:22 UTC
Clean install of Wolverine from CD GUI mode
I have an onboard VIA AC97 audio and a soundblaster 64 PCI card.

anaconda detected and set up both cards correctly.
( although  /etc/sysconfig/soundcard contained only one line :
CARDTYPE=ES1370 
)

Just to test , I "uninstalled" the cards by :
 - deleting the alias lines for sound-slot-{0,1} in
   /etc/modules.conf
 - deleting both entries in /etc/sysconfig/hwconf
 - deleting the file /etc/sysconfig/soundcard

Then I run kudzu. It found both cards and run sndconfig twice.
But sndconfig in both cases configured the VIA AC97 card.

State after that :

/etc/modules.conf :
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias usb-controller usb-uhci
alias sound-slot-0 via82cxxx_audio
options sb support=1   # ??? what is this ??? another bug ?

/etc/sysconfig/soundcard :
# THIS FILE IS WRITTEN BY SNDCONFIG
# PLEASE USE SNDCONFIG TO MODIFY
# TO CHANGE THIS FILE!
# There should be no spaces at the start of a line
# or around the '=' sign
CARDTYPE=VI82CXXX

Versions :
kudzu-0.96.7-1
sndconfig-0.62-1

sndconfig doesn't support multiple sound cards, and won't in the near future.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2001-03-05 19:43:25 UTC
The 'options sb' line should go away with current sndconfig.

sndconfig is no longer developed, and this release has reached end-of-life.
Closing out old bugs.
