What tool can I use to restore automatic reconfiguration of
the sound device? Since I tried to install the sound device
application using the software provided by ASUS P5GC-MX/1333
and not realizing that it worked previously, I'd like to
dependencies
How can I force reinstall the alsa drivers w/o losing the
as Yum wishes to remove?There must be a lot of ways of doing this. The one that I'd use is:
1. rpm -ihv --force http://path.to/the/alsa/drivers/in/the/fedora/repo
or
2.0 yum install smart
2.1 smart reinstall alsa*
hehe
Let's see what others say.
Ok, well I did reinstall all the alsa drivers and all
of that but it did not help.
So, I went to the www.alsa-project.org site, downloaded the
driver, lib, and utils, built it, installed it, ran alsaconf
and viola! It worked.
Problem solved.
There is a slight problem, so it seems.
For some reason, the alsaconf program:
1) Causes the 'Volume Control' to quit unexpectedly
2) Is able to write the information to /etc/modprobe.conf
and/or /etc/modprobe.d/sound files but of course you
cannot hear the sound and assume that it is working.
When I reboot, the Desktop Volume Control icon shows as disabled
even though it works when it is opened, the volume increased from
0 to 50%, and then closed. I am able to play music and all the rest.
But when I reboot the system and on the closing down of services,
I noticed that the ALSA CTL fails to save the (user?) settings which
explains why when the system comes up and the user logs in, the cycle
has to be repeated on the opening of the Volume control icon to reset
the volume level from 0 to 50%.
I think there is a problem somewhere in the writing of save data
in some save file that may be SELinux blocked or has permissions
incorrectly set, but here, I am guessing.
Anyone know what is going on?
