Darkelve Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Hi board, I cannot get sound under SuSe 9.1, which is a bit strange since the 9.1 LiveCD detected it perfectly. I also get a few weird errors in Yast: 1. When starting the sound detection module, it says: The number of currently running cards doesn't match the number of configured cards in your configuration files. Try to restart sound system? Choosing yes or no does not seem to make a difference. Then it correctly detects the soundcard, nforce Audio (but says 'not running') and when I want to configure it, in the last configuration step it says: An error occured during installation of 82801BA/BAM AC`97 Audio.The kernel module snd-intel8x0 for sound support could not be loaded. This can be caused by incorrect module parameters including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. Any ideas?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkelve Posted May 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 Seemed like all that was needed was a reboot of SuSe (after installation it went to post-installation and then straight to a login, no reboot. After I rebooted the next time, all was OK.) SOLVED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cornerstone Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 had same problem upgrading via ftp from SuSE 8.2 to 9.1 AC'97 had worked in ALSA mode with 8.2 before. SuSE suggests to remove kdemultimedia3-mixer. Do it! After rebooting ... ... system crashes. But seems due to an overriding of GRUB over the initial LILO. System repair won't work, upgrade does not fit anymore. So, everything has gone. Restart at zero. Lesson learned: ALSA support for built-in sound chips is buggy in 9.1 (driver, mixer, configuration). Wait until Suse delivers an update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windependent Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 well, i have had no luck with the Suse 9.1 LiveEval CD - I havent been able to get it to boot on ANY computers. so I mirrored the FTP site, planning on doing some network based installs. it figures, just as i am ready to start tinkering with the net install, my 9.1 Pro DVD arrives in the mail as part of Novells Linux Tecnhical Resource Kit. So I install 9,1 Pro, and configure it to do daily system updates. both before and after running the updates I run into a number of problems, including 1. dead sound 2. inability to detect the high res modes of my monitor 3. lockups when attempting to resize the display 4. keyboard mapping errors 5. failure to detect a multi display installation. in some respects, Windows is starting to look good....

Darkelve Posted July 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 (edited) in some respects, Windows is starting to look good.... Windows looking good? sounds like it's time to try another distro... I haven't got problems with it. But then, maybe I got lucky cuz my hardware is all "made in germany", as I fond out recently.
