From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 Description of problem: snd-atiixp appears to be modprobed correctly, but alsamixer and soundcard autodetect claim there is no device. sound worked correctly in 1.3xx kernels the following line is seen in dmesg output: ATI IXP AC97 controller: probe of 0000:00:14.5 failed with error -13 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.6-1.4xx How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot into 2.6.6-1.435 2. run alsasound and/or autodetect soundcard in X Actual Results: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device autodetect brings up the "did you hear the test sound" dialog _immediately_. no sound produced Expected Results: alsamixer to come up / guitar strumming. Additional info:
Still broken as of kernel-2.6.7-1.494.2.2
also still broken as of kernel-2.6.8-1.521 (smp kernel anyway)
I'm using kernel-2.6.8-1.533 from http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.6/RPMS.kernel/ (from a couple of weeks ago) and it works for me now. I think it was the update to alsa-1.0.6 that did it.
seems to be fixed in kernel 2.6.9-1.3_FC2 (smp - didn't try UP kernel)
Reappears with Fedora 3 with the difference that the card is detected but if you want to start the mixer it says that there is no mixer. What to do ?
do you have a /dev/mixer ?

If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you.
