alsaconf fails to configure

**oxy** · 07-17-2008

Hi,
i would enjoy some help in that:

Code:

# alsaconf

messages bellow come between alsaconf config windows

Code:

Running update-modules...
Loading driver...
WARNING: Error inserting snd_hda_codec (/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-codec.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
FATAL: Error inserting snd_hda_intel (/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/sound/pci/hda/snd-hda-intel.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Off course, the result is ...

Code:

--- no soundcards ---

Code:

Any tip? Thanx in advance ...

did you update your kernel or change gcc version?

**oxy** · 07-23-2008

yes, it came after a kernel update.
Maybe also changed gcc version, dont know.

**iwanabeguru** · 07-28-2008

did you install alsa from source?
In that case you need recompile and reinstall alsa, if you are using the alsa wich delivered with debian , update your system.

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

or

aptitude update
aptitude safe-upgrade

one of the above solutions will probably solve your problem

I don't get it

It worked before?

Otherwise, what version of alsa are you running? And what soundcard?
