sager 3880, realtek soundcard doesn't work

Thread Starter 
I am at my wits end here, I have been working on this for close to a month on and off. here is the story. I have a sager 3880, sound works fine in windows but on my gentoo install it is simply not there. I first tried the emergable alsa install. played with it forever and finally got it to load without errors using the snd-hda-intel driver. there are no errors everything seems to work fine there is just no sound (YES I unmuted it), i then backed all the way out and installed the package available from realtek, everything compiles fine setup says it works and again nothing... nada... I start xmms and it says it is playing but oddly enough i don;t hear it. I am actually starting to wonder if I have somehow gone deaf and the sound works fine its just my ears are broken.

Someone... anyone... give me an idea as to what to try next. I just want sound to work so I don't have to use windows all the freaking time. I cannot code without music, it just doesn't work. so i end up sshing into my server from windows just to code. its pathetic... please help.

err did you config your interface with alsa?

I think the command is something like asoundconfig or something like that, use Linux's autocompletion to find it by narrowing down the search Anyways essentially what it does is automate the writing of your .conf file for alsa. I always have to remember how to do it every time I do it unfortunatly, and dont have my linux box in front of me to look it up, sorry.

Yep that would be the one

I am not good enough to troubleshoot an asound.conf file I dont think, but you can try posting it up here if you want.

What version of the Alsa drivers are you running anyways?

I glanced around and this is what I found for what I believe is a similar card(In the Z71V) curtosey of tuxmobil.com

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sound
The alsa-driver for this card is snd-hda-intel which is only available from alsa 1.0.9 upwards. You can simply download the packages (alsa-driver, alsa-utilities, alsa-oss, alsa-lib) and install them manually: For alsa-driver: "./configure --with-oss=yes --with-cards=hda-intel", "make", "make install" For the rest: "./configure", "make", "make install"
Josh pointed out, that there is a problem with the alsa-device "default" producing crackling and synchronisation problems, which can be fixed by using the "plughw:0" device. I didn't test sound much, but I think he is right. You should be able to achive the same effect by using the alsa configuration-file to use that device. Oh, and while you're at it: Why not set up a dmix (software mixing) so you can play multiple sounds at the same time? Here is the file I'm using:

pcm.dmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1025
ipc_perm 660
slave {
pcm "hw:0"
}
}

pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmixer"
}


Name it "/etc/asound.conf" to set this up for all users or "~/.asoundrc" for the current user only.

------------------------------------------------------------

Also I this thing points towards, and I believe the other thread I saw this posted in(By you I believe) points towards you cant use the default kernel drivers, but rather have to set up your kernel to compile in the Alsa drivers from source. I have to check on how to do that but I believe it is you make sure that you are compiling with loadable module support, but you DONT want to compile the ALSA drivers in the kernel source. Then when you compile the kernel, you download and compile the ALSA sources.

But MAKE SURE you check that before doing it, It is very possible I forgot the correct order(Not as likely) or some other detail(Very likely).

Also on tux-mobil for the Asus Z71V is this tidbit...

----------------------------------------------------

Audio
I was fortunate enough to be at this years Linux Audio Conference in Karlsruhe, Germany which the developer of the ALSA driver, Takashi Iwai, happened to be attending too. He fixed most of the audio problems and added a model "z71v" to the hda-intel driver. These changes are now in the ALSA driver (as of 1.0.9rc4a).

Remaining problems: Many games refuse to play audio including Quake 3 and sometimes Descent 3. Many others work fine though. Seems to be related to programs that mmap the device or use sample rates that aren't natively supported by the device. Sometimes I've experienced clicking in the output or synchronization problems in media programs like mplayer. There is a module parameter "position_fix" that was added to be able to try different buffer position reporting schemes. Try adding "position_fix=1" or "position_fix=2" to the module parameters like so:

modprobe snd-hda-intel position_fix=1

Or add "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1" to your /etc/modules.d/alsa file and run "update-modules" (Gentoo specific).

-----------------------------------------------

Have fun, hope that helps a bit.

The one thing I notice is that you ar at a true bash prompt. Is this normal for your config? That usualy indicates a chrooted environment or a single user environment. Also looks like your running OSS not alsa. On XMMS try the OSS output driver. Have you recompiled the kernel? If so did you do OSS in it only or just Alsa?

bsmith: not sure what you mean by "not running alsa" - the sound modules he's listed by lsmod are all alsa modules, including oss emulation..

It may be worth posting the output of amixer - *just in case* :-)

Other than that - looking at what was posted above about some apps not working, have you tried generating sound with a more primitive method than xmms? I sometimes have done a

#cat /bin/ls > /dev/audio

to check sound is on (/dev/audio is an oss device, of course, but it should work with snd-pcm_oss loaded)

On a less basic note.. I googled your audio controller from the output of lspci (82801FB +alsa) and found http://www.progsoc.uts.edu.au/~rheise/LW60/ where he seems to have the same integrated chip (including the 'High Definition' and 'rev 04' bits) and has reported some success with the snd-azx driver in alsa 1.0.8 (1.0.9 wasn't out apparently) so that might be worth a try...

Good luck!

(oops, it seems snd-azx was just the previous name for the hda-intel driver you're trying, so probably forget that bit )

my kernel has been compiled a number fo ways with the same result. most recently I have compiled in alsa support with no OSS support. I haven't tried enabling OSS but I don't see how that could help. I have also tried compiling with sound support but no alsa and then compiling alsa_driver seperately. maybe someone else with a 3880 has it working and could walk me through what they did and post configs. This is driving me nuts.

frankly if it was something that easy I wouldn;t even be mad at myself I would just accept the fact that I am an idiot and be happy.

on your advice I did cat /dev/urandom > /dev/audio and also tried /dev/dsp, exactly the same as in xmms/mplayer/madplay/every other media player. appears to works but no sound comes out. I am 90% sure i had already tried that but tried it again to be sure. anyway this is about the time everyone gives up on helping me prolly. oh well I guess I shall live in a ssh terminal from windows from now on just so that I can play sound.... which actually gives me an idea. install vmware and install win and use the windows driver and see if it works on top of my unworking snd_hda_intel driver.... hrrm

I actually have been running into a lot of references to the "soundcore" module lately. everything is saying you must have the soundcore module loaded before doing this. does this simply mean modprobe snd??? or is there something actually called soundcore....

Code:
bash-2.05b# locate soundcore
/usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r9/sound/soundcore.o
/usr/src/linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r9/sound/.soundcore.o.cmd
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12-rc6/sound/soundcore.o
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12-rc6/sound/.soundcore.o.cmd
/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.10/sound/soundcore.o
/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.10/sound/.soundcore.o.cmd
/home/darkry/Desktop/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a/utils/patches/soundcore.2.4.patch
/home/darkry/Desktop/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a/utils/patches/soundcore.2.4.20.patch
/root/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a/utils/patches/soundcore.2.4.20.patch
/root/alsa-driver-1.0.9rc4a/utils/patches/soundcore.2.4.patch

soundcore.o looks like a module but I can't for the life of me get infomod to acknowledge it. is soundcore maybe just base sound support in the kernel. I might have that compiled in instead of as a module

/me checks

yep I did I am recompiling now and we shall see but I am not optimistic

Looking at your amixer output, there's no master volume setting.. Odd! And it's easy to imagine that this is related to your problem (if the master volume was sat at 0, muted, and inaccessible via the mixer, for some reason.) I dunno for sure, but I thought a master volume control was a pretty standard item in an alsa mixer.

Anyway, I found a bug page at alsa-project.org which looks very like your bug. If you haven't seen it already, take a look at https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/al...ew.php?id=1176

One user there has a clevo box there with this problem, and used alsa 1.0.9b loading the hda-intel driver with the option "model=z71v" to solve this. The original poster used the CVS version of alsa, with "model=asus" to get it working.

So it looks like minor model variations may be causing this, and the model=? parameter might help. Not much, perhaps, but it gives you something to waste time with when you could be working! ;-)

Maybe other rooting around the alsa buglist, or even posting your own bug along with lspci -nv output might work..

Keep going!

do you know off the top of your head where that module is actualy loaded so that I can add the option. usually you would do that in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.* but thats not where this is loading. time to search the filesystem for all instances of snd-hda-intel i guess

just do it off the commandline: modprobe -v snd-hda-intel <options>

(Edit: Personally, I get sick of distribution-specific boot config scripts, and tend to do a lot of stuff in the local boot rc file (eg, in gentoo /etc/conf.d/local.start ) like ifconfig commands, module loading with modprobe, and stuff. Probably very naughty of me! :-)

I worship you... ... k i have sound if I bypass the alsasound init script and modprobe it up myself... awesome. it buzzes like crazy atm. will continue to work on it. I am 90% sure i saw a resolution for the buzzing while digging around on google with the driver name. oddly enough there is a completely different alsamixer now... very strange.

Nice going! If you do get it working nicely, might be good to add a page on tuxmobil.com or linux-on-laptops.com with the details on just how you did it..

Probably the model-specific stuff is to do with how the controllers are addressed, so giving you a different set in alsamixer - out of curiosity, did a master volume appear?

no still no master volume which is odd. and it only works at all with model=z71v i am trying to find a list of the model options for this module

i think z71v refers to a specific laptop which would explain bad quality and such, my sager 3880 has sorround sound and things like that so its kind of limiting to use this option..


edit:

still haven't found a list of models better than searching google for "had-intel model=" but I did manage to fix the clicking buzzing noise


I have another post here which is my walkthrough on gentoo on a sager 3880. I will post what I got working on there. I am still gonna try and get sorround and things working so we shall see what i find. thanks for all the help.

I believe the z71v has the same soundcard from when I did a little digging on your model.

And yea I hate distro startup scripts... one of many things that needs to get standardized in linux to help interoperability between distros.

But at any rate congrats on the working sound, and you are right there was a fix for buzzing somewhere(Saw it while digging around for you), I cant remember exactly where though. Interesting fix on the model=z71v, never actually seen that argument passed before.

Course supposedly when the next Ubuntu comes out it will support all laptops currently on the market out of the box, so maybe itll end up being MUCH easier for you
