No sound on Creative SB AWE64 PnP - Puppy 2.14

#1 Post by don22 »

Hi,

I've been trying to get the sound working on Puppy 2.14 but it appears I'm having trouble configuring the sound card to work.

The sound card itself is being detected on Xproc in the Advanced section but it says there are no audio devices on the Sound tab.

Why would the sound card be detected on Advanced but not Sound?

Thanks.

Did you try the ALSA wizard?

You should check the module that can drive your card,
http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index. ... ative_Labs
http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main
and check if PUPPY is loading the right one.

It seems that the "snd-sbawe" module could be the right one

I don' t know if puppy comes with that module installed.
try

Code: Select all

modprobe snd-sbawe
It happened to me that the ALSA wizard detected my card, but loaded a wrong module. I just edited "modprobe.conf" to replace the loaded module.
