1 lspci reports "04:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB
2 Audigy LS"
3
4 dmesg says nothing about sound... it's been a while since i last
5 rebooted this box ;D
6
7 when i try to start alsasound manually, it says the following:
8
9 * Loading ALSA modules ...
10 * Could not detect custom ALSA settings. Loading all detected alsa
11 drivers.
12 * Unable to find any ALSA drivers. Have you compiled alsa-drivers
13 correctly?
14 * ERROR: Failed to load necessary drivers
15 * Restoring Mixer Levels ...
16 * No mixer config in /etc/asound.state, you have to unmute your card!
17
18 which is strange because alsa-drivers are compiled into kernel.
