Re: [Alsa-user] Alsa Drivers & X configuration [SOLVED]

[Balpo <ba...@gm...>]

Ok, even though **this list is completely useless*** because nobody cares,
I will post my solution:

System: Mandriva 2009.1 x64 using KDE4

HP's HDX16T laptop is not perfectly configured by Mandriva.
In fact, the problem is the version of alsa-dirvers and alsa-lib.

All you have to do is install the alsa-driver-1.0.20.
I ran it with the following options:
--with-debug=full --with-oss=yes --with-pcm-oss-plugins=yes 
--with-cards=all --with-card-options=all

Afterwards I rebooted (optional)

Then I installed alsa-lib-1.0.20 package, with the default options, 
rebooted, and sound worked.

Be sure to play around with alsamixer or kmix to ensure sound output.

Hope this helps someone.
