#1 Post by cb88 »

Alsa wizard trys to load this:
emu10k1 02:0d.0 class 0401: 02:0002 (rev08)
The spacing between these numbers may no be right.
Maybe this is a winsoundcard?
more info later if needed.
puppy 2.12 live-cd with 1Gb pupsave
sound works with Wind.

try typing alsamixer into the terminal, checking if it is muted (left right arrows to select control, mute is the first control, spacebar toggles) Than make sure your main analogue and digital volume is not set to 0, again controlled by direction arrows.

Good luck

The main line out was muted. I had already used alsa mixer to make sure the volume was up on everything but I did not know how to unmute. I think "m" toggles the mute control also. I just went through each option and turned it on untill I could hear gxine playing and mp3.

thanks for the tip,
