Kein Sound unter Porteus 2.1Mate / No sound

Post#1 by art4core » 13 Dec 2013, 03:22

Hallo zusammen !

Ich habe mir Porteus 2.1
auf meinem Laptop Travelmate 240 installiert.

Es funktioniert soweit alles bis auf die Tonausgabe. :(
Ich gehe davon aus,dass es nur eine Kleinigkeit sein kann,da mit einer PcWelt Live Version
von Porteus alles ohne Probleme lief,diese liess sich aber leider nicht auf die Hd installieren.

Weswegen ich diese Version installiert habe:http://dl.porteus.org/i486/current/Port ... 1-i486.iso

Leider habe ich keinerlei Erfahrung mit Slackware Forks,ich würde also grundlegende Hilfe benötigen.

Bitte auf deutsch antworten, da mein Englisch nicht ausreicht um spezielle technische Informationen zu verstehen.

Danke!

Code: Select all

0:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03)
Hi there!

I have Porteus 2.1
installed on my laptop TravelMate 240.

It works so far everything butnot the sound. : (
I assume that there may be a small thing, as Live with a pcwelt version
of Porteus everything went without problems, but this unfortunately does not let himself be installed on the Hd.

Which is why I installed this version: [url] http://dl.porteus.org/i486/current/Port ... 1-i486.iso [/ url]

Unfortunately I have no experience with Slackware Forks, so I would need basic help.

Please respond to German, because my English is not enough to understand specific technical information.

Thank you !

I was searching for a very long time to get my soundcard working on porteus. I couldn't find anything on the internet. Firstly, I was thinking that the alsa drivers were not correctly installed. I tried a lot of stuff, like modifying alsa conf files and so on, without success. Eventually, I have found a solution that I could live with. Actually, I got a laptop with an analog sound card + HDMI interface. I must add that the sound over HDMI still didn't work for me. I am still searching why? Maybe one day I will be figuring it out :x .

Okay, here the solution
For listening to music:
Part 1:
Open a terminal and check where your analog device is:

Code: Select all

aplay -l
You will receive something like:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Generic_1 [HD-Audio Generic], device 0: ALC3227 Analog [ALC3227 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
The card 1 is the analog device and this is the one we need. Then type again in terminal

Code: Select all

alsamixer
Then press [F6] and choose your analog sound card 1- HD AUDIO Generic.
Make sure the master volume is not set to 0%. Modify it if necessary to 40%-80%. Then press [ESC],

Part 2:
Then click on e.g. mp3 file. Then you receive message like
ALSA error: No suitable mixer element found.

ALSA error: snd_pcm_open failed: No such file or directory.
Never mind and close this message. Then click in your music players menu on FILE -> Settings.
Then select the Audio section on the left side and then click on the button Settings in the upper part . Then choose as PCM device your default:CARD=Generic_1 sound card and enjoy your music. :Yahoo!:


For watching a movie with VLC Player (the same procedure as above):
Execute the Part 1 as stated above.
Then:
Click on the movie file (e.g. mkv file). If you don't hear any sound from your speakers. So, go on the menu of your movie player and click on EDIT -> Preferences.
Then you will find or see something with AUDIO output. Then change from [default] to your audio device, e.g. HD Audio Generic (ALC3227 Analog) (alsa). You must hear the sound now! Prost :beer:
