This is a support issue, please read the wiki, the forums or join us on irc for help. Details at http://amarok.kde.org/ Re subject bug, lack of sound, I was out of town for about a month and when I came back, your web site shows the bug RESOLVED; I still have no sound. I went to UBUNTU documentation, sound troubleshooting. Following their instructions, I found out that snd-emu10k1x for my Dell Soundblaster Live Value wasn't installed (instead Kinfocenter shows sound: 3.8.1a-980706); Kubuntu 6.10 from which I updated did have it and the sound was OK. I tried to install emu10k1x using Alsa-source; module-assistance wasn't found; I had to downloaded it, along with alsa-source, going to system-adept manager; the shell command still did not find module-assistance even when I copied it to the same directory I was issuing the command, so I couldn't use it. Using dpkg reconfigure alsa-source I was finally able to install emu10k1x. lspci shows the card; see the first blocks in the attached file. However, I cannot load it with modprobe because as you will see in the attached file, modprobe calls for /sound/c ore...and it should be /sound/acore (Acore) where the needed files are. Also please notice that at the end there is an Error inserting snd_ac97_codec; in Konqueror, I do see sound/pci/ac97/snd-ac97-codec.ko, codec.ko being a binary file; how can the error be corrected? Please check, as it is this SB Live is troublesome, and advise me what to do. -- Saludos, Pedro The snd-emu10k1x chipset is one of the most stable and well supported chipsets under linux. Many of our developers use them. Speak to the ubuntu team, this is their problem not ours. |
