Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2006-07-24 12:30:14 UTC
Please check turn acpi off by adding acpi=off to the kernel command line in
grub.conf (it's a common problem so you can search in some forums)

Or you can check the latest ALSA drivers, how-to is here:
http://people.redhat.com/stransky/alsa/


Comment 4 andro 2006-07-24 12:38:07 UTC
i aslo found that there is no /dev/dsp and how can i trun acpi off

Comment 6 Martin Stransky 2006-07-25 09:02:56 UTC
Don't you see in this file "# Automatically generated make config: don't edit"??
There isn'y any problem.

Just append "acpi=off" to this line in /boot/grub/grub.conf:

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-xxxx_FC5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet

(and install kernel again if you break your /boot/config2.17.xxxx_FC5)

I have roughly the same problem with my SB32 soundcard and tried what was
suggested, i.e. to install the latest drivers, and I get the exact same problem
shown in andro's log output.  Despite the fact that I installed the developer
version of FC5, I get that same message about the missing version.h header file.

I just went thru the update to vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 from 2054 and the
problem remains, no sound and attempting to run configure to install the latest
alsa-utils gets the same log output as andro.

If there are any tests or changes you would like me to try don't hesitate to
ask.  I am an experienced software engineer but new to the Linux world.

Comment 20 Martin Stransky 2006-10-03 14:07:12 UTC
Please, you don't need to compile kernel. Just install it from fedora updates as
a binary package.

Please report your problem to ALSA project (www.alsa-project.org) and attach
scsound.log there. They're authors of your driver so they may help you...
