Hi, I am trying to activate the sound card in my laptop. However linux is
still the dark forest to me. I saw the post before where somebody asked
similar question and he was asked several questions about his system. Here
are the answer to those questions on my system:
First here is my pci stuff:
[root@resnet-172 hits]# /sbin/lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS/940GML and 945GT

00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) PCI Express Port

03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02)
03:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd: Unknown device 0832

03:01.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 05)
0b:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network
Connection (rev 02)
Next here is my modprobe.conf,
[root@resnet-172 hits]# cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 b44
alias scsi_hostadapter ata_piix
alias snd-card-0 snd-azx
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-azx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-azx && /usr/sbin/alsactl
restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-azx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; };
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-azx
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd
alias eth1 ipw3945
I don't understand what is going on in there. First it says install snd-azx
and then in the next line remove snd-azx. Can somebody explain me those two
lines.
Also I don't find modules.conf file.
[hits@resnet-172 ~]$ locate modules.conf
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/ssl-modules.conf
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/mapping-modules.conf
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf.with-menu-editing
/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/default-modules.conf
Does it mean I need a newer version of modutils. Which repository has it?
Final question I want some recomendation on how to learn more about linux,
so far I am getting bits and pieces from all over, can somebody suggest some
source where one can get a good foundation in linux.
cheers,
Dmitry Hits.
