Now that I have marked that thread as "SOLVED" I feel obliged to give a short |
| 2 |
update (what really solved the problem): |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
deleting /etc/asound.state unfortunately did not solve the problem, it just |
| 5 |
helped suppressing the warning message. I did not really notice as I had KDE |
| 6 |
use autodetect for sound, so it used OSS and not ALSA. That was not too bad, |
| 7 |
but I did not have any sound in my favorite game (which uses alsa) and |
| 8 |
therefore had to look a bit deeper: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
it seemed that ALSA had a problem with the missing /dev/snd directory ("cannot |
| 11 |
find soundcard 0") though it should have been created during boot according |
| 12 |
to /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
So, I messed around a bit with the alsasound start script |
| 15 |
(/etc/init.d/alsasound) and created /dev/snd as symbolic link inside the |
| 16 |
start() function. After that I had some problems in shutting down, so I |
| 17 |
added "rm -f /dev/snd" inside the stop() function and everything works well |
| 18 |
(eventually). |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
But I have to admit that I do not feel very comfortable with this |
| 21 |
modification. Does anyone have a better idea?? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Kindest regards and thanks in advance, |
| 24 |
