Hi guys, |

I know I'm like a bear with a thorn in it's paw, but this is driving me |
| 4 |
nuts. I've tried the suggestions provided in response to my posts on |
| 5 |
this list, but I still can't play audio CD's. I posted to the alsa-user |
| 6 |
list and got a response. I'm posting some of that here because although |
| 7 |
the responder has the exact same computer as I do, he uses Suse and I'm |
| 8 |
wondering if I've missed something or done something wrong when I |
| 9 |
compiled genkernel and thought maybe someone on the list might have an |
| 10 |
idea as to why there are discprepancies between what I'm getting and |
| 11 |
what the guy who responded to my alsa-user post got. |

This is his output: |

Interesting. I do get: |

This is his output from his Dell XPS M1710 laptop: |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
I usually use alsamixer from the console, but invoking Kmix it shows: |
| 54 |
Output: |
| 55 |
Master, PCM, Capture Mux, Digital |
| 56 |
Input: |
| 57 |
Capture, Capture Mux, Digital |
| 58 |
Switch |
| 59 |
IEC958 and a dropdrow listbox 'Input Source' with Mic, Front Mic, Line |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
I've tried editing /etc/modules.d/alsa the way it has been suggested in |
| 62 |
response to my posts here, but I still can get audio CD's to play. |
| 63 |
Obviously, the drive works or I wouldn't have been able to get Gentoo |
| 64 |
installed and an audio track ripped just fine from a CD and plays |
| 65 |
normally when I play it from my hard drive. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Someone here also pointed me toward an alsa bug list and said to pay |
| 68 |
particular attention to comments by someone who goes by 'pshou', but I |
| 69 |
don't really understand what he was saying. |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
If anyone can provide me with direction, I would sure appreciate it. |
